TikTok Ireland Layoffs and Policy Shifts | Limerick News

TikTok’s Ireland layoffs hit 300, mostly from trust and safety, as the company pivots toward AI and new Dublin roles — but employees face tough choices: take extra pay in termination deals or accept bare-minimum terms, losing GDPR data rights. Many are scrambling to pause life plans like buying homes or starting families, amid a tense workplace fueled by global job cuts. The company’s also axing its popular 20-day work-from-abroad policy, a major blow for international staff who relocated for TikTok — with limited visa or emergency exceptions. Unions are pushing back, securing small wins like visa extensions and garden leave, while still fighting for data access rights and policy reversals.
