Pros
You're surrounded by highly intelligent people, no matter where you work. There's an attitude of work hard, play hard. Hard work pays off here. A lot of heads down, hard at work during work hours, but people relax and have good time at social events and during catered lunches.
Cons
There are high expectations of everyone. You have to keep performing, and performing at a high rate. You can get burned out easily here if you're not up to it.

Thank you for your feedback, which we continuously use to improve the employee experience. We’re happy you are enjoying the intelligent, work hard / play hard community that Roblox has become known for. We’ve shared your note about recognition internally, but if you’d like to share additional insights, contact feedback@roblox.com.
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.
