Vantaggi

extraordinary technology--for instance, any one of the thousands of game on the Roblox platform could have players on xbox, a tablet device, iphone, android, desktop, etc.--amazing. A few days ago i saw a cutting-edge multi-player game re-implemented on Roblox with astonishing fidelity. The developers who build this technology are sitting all around me--that's perhaps the best thing. Another: it is run by adults. Not by a 25-year old stanford drop-out who just wants to be famous. The codebase here was created deliberately with tender loving care by masters. As a result there seems to be astonishingly little technical debt--eg, on the roblox blog, you can read about major upgrades to the core game components (the physics engine. This would be impossible without a rock-solid code base

Svantaggi

about 325 people; there is some bureaucracy, but if you are coming from a larger org, you might have the opposite impression

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.
