2025年9月4日，字節跳動(抖音)發佈第二季度員工違規處理通報，披露公司在過去三個月內對違規行為的嚴格處理情況。本季度共有100名員工因觸犯公司規章被辭退，其中18人因涉及刑事犯罪或惡意損害公司利益被實名通報，8人涉嫌刑事犯罪已被移交司法機關處理，同時取消其期權。此外，還有10名員工因違規參與外部付費訪談或洩露保密資訊而受到處罰。

在典型案例方面，前員工李某通過冒用身份和匿名方式在社交媒體上捏造不實資訊，包括傳播“不正當男女關係”和侮辱公司招聘標準的內容，最終被實名通報並承擔法律責任。一些高管也未能遵守公司規定，例如某部門前員工與人力資源業務夥伴存在未申報的親密關係，結果二人被辭退並扣罰年終獎金。另外，一名前實習生因重複領取餐食154份並清空零食櫃，違反公司內部管理制度，也被列入違規處理名單。

此次通報反映字節跳動近年來持續加強內部管理的趨勢。2024年全年，公司共辭退違規員工353人，其中39人移交司法機關處理。同時，在整個行業中，類似的職務違規和違法行為也屢有發生，例如北京市海澱區某短視頻平臺的員工內外勾結騙取1.4億元獎勵金案件，以及B站、完美世界等互聯網企業通報的多起職務犯罪案例。這些事件顯示出互聯網企業在高速發展過程中，員工管理和合規風險依然是亟需重視的重要議題。

On September 4, 2025,TIKTOK released a report detailing employee violations for the second quarter, outlining the company’s strict measures against misconduct over the past three months. During this period, a total of 100 employees were dismissed for violating company rules, with 18 of them publicly named for involvement in criminal activities or maliciously harming company interests. Eight employees suspected of criminal offenses were handed over to judicial authorities, and their stock options were revoked. Additionally, 10 employees were penalized for improperly participating in paid external interviews or leaking confidential information.

Among the notable cases, former employee Li, using a false identity and anonymous accounts, spread false information on social media, including allegations of “improper relationships” and insults to the company’s recruitment standards. Li was publicly named and held legally accountable. Some executives also violated company regulations; for instance, a former department employee had an undisclosed intimate relationship with an HR business partner, resulting in both being dismissed and having their year-end bonuses forfeited. Moreover, a former intern repeatedly claimed 154 meals and emptied the snack cabinet, violating internal company rules, and was similarly sanctioned.

This report highlights TIKTOK’s ongoing efforts to strengthen internal management. In 2024, the company dismissed 353 employees for violations, with 39 cases referred to judicial authorities. Similar cases have also emerged across the industry, such as a Haidian District short video platform in Beijing where employees colluded internally and externally to defraud 140 million RMB in bonuses, as well as multiple cases of workplace misconduct reported by companies like Bilibili and Perfect World. These incidents underscore that, amid rapid growth, employee management and compliance remain critical challenges for Internet enterprises.
