Total compensation is top of the market. There are good benefits, a matching 401k, free DEXA scans, and a nice HQ.
There is chaotic management.
The stock price is volatile. One year you can make a lot of money with your RSUs, and the next year it's 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 caveats start.
Clean up trust and safety, that is the number one risk to your business and you have known it for years.
Get rid of the founder CEO, who is running the company into the ground, running it like a startup when it is a public company. We are losing so much talent to AI companies, and he is still thinking he can jerk entire teams' roadmaps around to his whim and fancy and push people to work extra hours just because Roblox targets the top end of the market. It may work when your stock is at $140, but nobody will let you push them around when your stock is at $40.
The first step in the interview process was an online assessment. I was asked to complete it within 7 days. I completed the assessment, but I haven't heard back since, despite reaching out twice.
The Roblox initial assessment consists of three Roblox games that test your problem-solving skills. They are timed based on difficulty and can be unreasonably overbearing, but overall, it is not a terrible experience.
I applied for a software engineering internship in 2021. I received a coding assessment that I had to complete within two weeks. I also had to answer some other behavioral questions via email.
