Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
I had a phone interview scheduled, and the interviewer was a no-show. I followed up with her by email, and she said she had a last-minute offer to deal with by the end of the day. She then asked if I wanted to reschedule the appointment for next week. However, I was no longer interested in the job or the company.

High-growth, high-learning environment that demands that I continuously up my game

Pros: Very fun product, amazing group of peers, diverse technology stack, and a broad range of problems to solve and opportunities to pursue.
ROBLOX is a real meritocracy, where hard work, passion, and results win over everything else. You're constantly learning, and constantly improving. People are well rewarded and praised.
I see some negative comments on this site about retention, but retention has been great from what I see, and we've doubled in size in less than one year.
Cons: I think there are downsides for those who cannot adapt quickly, who are not flexible, or who are not able to consistently deliver. For these people, ROBLOX can be a challenge.
ROBLOX can also be a tough place for those uncomfortable with a narrowly focused, highly iterative approach -- employees must be able to tolerate off-scope ideas being placed on the sidelines, and having interim results being "works in progress".
From what I hear, ROBLOX is no different than other dynamic and successful tech companies.
