Pros
Roblox is a very comfortable place to work at. All usual stuff that you may see at other successful companies are present: snacks, paid meals, flexible/unlimited vacation, 401K matching etc. Personally I chose Roblox over facebook and google not only because I got a better (or matching) offer from Roblox, but also because I felt that I'd be lost in a huge army of Facebook/Google employees possibly working on something not so important. At Roblox I work now on something that instantly affects entire platform and tens of millions of players and I like that. At google/facebook I'd be getting shares that can be sold for cash any moment, however their value is unlikely to increase tenfold over 4 years. With the way Roblox grows I'm fairly confident value of my options will increase more than 10-x over 4 years of vesting period. Yes, Roblox is not a public company, but it's on a good trajectory to become one: we grow consistently over multiple years in revenue, in user count and retention; Roblox just started to expand worldwide and we have a good CEO and top leadership team. I've been at Roblox just a bit less that 2 years and I'm happy that I chose Roblox over all other options when I decided to move to SF Bay area.
Cons
Perhaps our release cycle isn't something that I'm happy to deal with or our versioning system. Some senior managers are afraid/not willing to try some ideas, e.g. Roblox is not a small agile start up anymore. So, join us and help us make it better!
