Too much politics - Principal Engineer Roblox Employee Review

Great people, interesting product, great perks.

Volatile industry, can influence your total comp drastically depending on what cycle you are going through

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

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.
