TikTok has reportedly poached over 25 of Facebook's contracted moderators and hired them in-house as Facebook continues to face scrutiny for its violent content

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.Over 25 people have reportedly left their third-party jobs moderating content on Facebook for in-house positions in TikTok's Dublin offices, per a CNBC report.

The report comes as Facebook has faced increasing scrutiny in recent years for the psychological stress experienced by people who sift through and moderate violent content — like hate speech, terrorism, and murder — on its platform. Both TikTok and Facebook have large moderation operations in Dublin, Ireland, where many of the TikTok jobs that the former Facebook moderators are grabbing are located.

"If there's one company that knows how to ruthlessly poach staff from rivals it's ByteDance," social media analyst Matthew Brennan told CNBC, referring to the popular videosharing app's China-based parent company. "They won't think twice about swapping in to take advantage of Facebook's difficulties."
