We’re sorry to hear that you had a negative experience in your time with Roblox. We are proud of the progress that we’ve made as a company, but rapid growth brings about some growing pains as well. We try to monitor sentiment with surveys such as the most recent survey where we were named a 2019 Great Place to Work. We will continue to listen to our employees to improve as we evolve. We’re sorry that we were not a good fit for you.

Pros

Total compensation is top of the market. Good benefits, matching 401k, free DEXA scans, nice HQ.

Cons

Chaotic management. Violatile stock price, one year you can make a lot of money with your RSUs, the next year its all worthless. Progression is hard, on paper they have a standardized rubric for leveling engineers but when it comes to calibration that's when the gaslighting and the caveat starts.
