How are the career development opportunities at Roblox?

Flexible work times, Unlimited PTO

Politics, favoritism, No career growth

The pay and benefits are pretty damn good, but, it ends there. Also met a few super talented smart coworkers who I will stay in touch with.

Don’t know where to start outside of there are too many to list. The job and company many of us were sold on years ago is nothing like what you really live once you’re on the inside. Political, rife with micromanagement, zero direction from a leadership perspective, no career growth opportunities unless you’re liked by the right people in leadership, etc. I have never worked anywhere that reinvented the wheel so much either, the lack of organization planning and strategy is baffling. All the employees don’t have any faith in leadership except for a few who have been there for many years and have been promoted so many times they can’t complain. I’d stay as far away as possible to save your sanity.

- Good managers - Good WLB - Great perks - Amazing compensation - Good growth opportunities I have no plans to leave this place; they give employees everything they could want

- Not as much growth as a startup - Can feel top-down at times

It's entirely top-down Hours High-stress environment Can be stuck without growth opportunities.

Good environment for a junior role

slow in career progression company strategy is not very clear

High compensation, good work-life balance

increased bureaucracy, top-down management, and sometimes unclear career progression

Roblox is a fun great place to work. People are generally helpful and there is a lot to do since it's not too big. Impact is pretty high, but work life balance is generally very good too which is a rare combination.

Team differences and project silos can make recognition hard to achieve. New grad pipeline and growth seems pretty good, but higher up starts getting more political.
