What Does TikTok Pay? See Salary Data on Hundreds of Jobs

^{This article originally appeared on Business Insider.}

TikTok has become a household name in tech and media.

Its user base exploded in 2021, passing one billion monthly active users globally, according to the company. And it’s been staffing up to meet growing demand.

While current and former TikTok staffers have described the workplace culture as high pressure, with roles that can demand working outside of normal business hours, the company continues to attract applicants in cities across the US.

The company has made a flurry of strategic hires in the past year, with a focus on big initiatives like its e-commerce feature TikTok Shop and its data-sovereignty division, USDS. It’s currently hiring for more than 2,500 jobs in the US, per listings on its careers portal.

Business Insider analyzed thousands of work-visa disclosures released by the US Office of Foreign Labor Certification to shed light on what TikTok and ByteDance pay for certain roles.

The public data shows how much the companies offered to pay foreign staffers they sought to hire in the US over the last two years.

E-commerce was a priority, with the data showing more than 170 wages related to “commerce” or “shop” by BI’s count, from a creator success manager for Live Shop operations making $100,000 a year at ByteDance, to several e-commerce data engineers earning from $150,000 to $232,000 a year at TikTok.

TikTok has broad ambitions in e-commerce, hiring up to improve logistics and shipping and breaking into categories like luxury resales and live selling as it competes with incumbent platforms like Amazon, Temu, and Shein.

TikTok also staffed up for roles in its USDS division, as it’s faced regular scrutiny around how it manages user data. About 250 of the wages were tied to the independent US Data Security business that TikTok launched in May 2022 in response to national security concerns by some US government officials.

The full data includes wages from 2,517 foreign-labor applications between October 1, 2021 and September 30, 2023 for TikTok; owner ByteDance; and TikTok US Data Security, or USDS for short.

It only gives visibility into the companies’ salaries where they tried to hire foreign workers, which largely skewed toward tech, data, and product roles, in this case.

The ByteDance staffers mainly included employees who work across the company’s apps and products, including TikTok. The TikTok employees focus on TikTok-specific roles in areas like product development, e-commerce, and growth marketing. The USDS roles were primarily in data and engineering functions.

The pay was comparable for the same or similar jobs across the three companies. For example, the median salary for a data scientist was roughly $185,000 a year at ByteDance, $182,993 at TikTok, and $193,535 at USDS.

These wages are the minimum amounts the company said in labor applications that it would pay specific workers, according to US Department of Labor documentation.

Companies may choose to pay employees more than the figures reflected in this data or compensate them in additional ways, like through stock options and grants. TikTok, for example, also offers stock options to some of its US-based employees as another source of compensation.

Based on the data, TikTok and ByteDance offered from late 2021 to late 2023 base salaries ranging from $29 an hour to $455,600 a year for various roles.

TikTok did not respond respond to a request for comment from BI on the latest data.
