Pros

Roblox pays well above market. Lunch and generous snacks are provided and the office is nice, and right next to caltrain.

Cons

Literally everything else is a dumpster fire. The infrastructure is garbage. The planning is chaotic. Senior leadership will not delegate and seems to think all the employees are stupid. Middle management is cliquey, territorial, and ineffective. Reviews are constant and arbitrary. Lots of petty fiefdoms. Nothing gets done. top talent comes and goes pretty quickly. Morale is perpetually low, and most employees and managers are scared to varying degrees, and no one is confident. The stock is going nowhere. The CEO thinks he's a visionary but everyone else can see that he's an idiot.

Pros

Comp is high, especially considering how easy the work is.

Cons

Here's the review I wish I read before accepting my offer --> If you are coming from a well-developed engineering culture, the stuff you see here will leave you wanting to quit in your first week. You won't because the comp is good and you've already left your old job. But you'll stay and witness poor collaboration, a lack of engineering aptitude, and the most dysfunctional engineering culture of your career. You'll try to make an impact which will be blocked by poor tooling, incompetent partner teams, and ICs chasing their vanity project for their next promo. After 6 months you'll realize that giving the bare minimum and collecting a paycheck is enough. This job isn't worth it.
