We aspire for TikTok to reflect the diverse communities that make the platform and organization so special. That's why we strive to create a culture of belonging every day.

Our differences make us stronger

We believe diversity is about the different identities, backgrounds, and experiences represented within our teams.

"From top down, there's a genuine emphasis on embracing diverse perspectives. My team encourages me to share my ideas without fear of judgment. I also joined ARISE and Women ERG because I wanted to be part of a community where I could feel included and supported, especially valuing the mentorship opportunities they offer. Both foster an environment where I can share my culture and find confidence in my identity."
