Pros: Good pay and lots of fun.

Cons: Hard to get in and lots of work.

Pros: Extraordinary technology--for instance, any one of the thousands of games on the Roblox platform could have players on Xbox, a tablet device, iPhone, Android, desktop, etc. It's amazing. A few days ago, I saw a cutting-edge multiplayer game re-implemented on Roblox with astonishing fidelity. The developers who build this technology are sitting all around me--that's perhaps the best thing. Another: it is run by adults. Not by a 25-year-old Stanford drop-out who just wants to be famous. The codebase here was created deliberately with tender loving care by masters. As a result, there seems to be astonishingly little technical debt--e.g., on the Roblox blog, you can read about major upgrades to the core game components (the physics engine). This would be impossible without a rock-solid codebase.

Cons: about 325 people. There is some bureaucracy, but if you are coming from a larger org, you might have the opposite impression.

Pros: - Some good orgs and leaders - Good pay and benefits

Cons: - Company is heading in the wrong direction, focusing on social features rather than games. - Leadership cannot be trusted; they change their minds on policies.
