What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Building a diverse team and company
Not micromanaging every fine detail. Trust the employees.
They need to get better at organization.
Review from Admin Dept
Complete lack of diversity; one woman, moslty white. No real interest from CEO in changing things.
Communicating business direction and letting people run on their own instead of micromanaging
Review from Product Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
if i have robux ill feel better i dont get bullied annymore and i want a new avatar to make me happy
A bonus, earnings equal to other companies where I know I could work.
I feel like I'm getting treated a different way then the others.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Need to hire smarter people. Which fortunately is happening.
Review from Product Dept
Coworkers are territorial and have a hard, capital BP idea of what "Best Practices" are. Process is favored over tooling, which (+ capital A Agile) results in a proliferation of meetings. People are afraid to end these meetings when we finish early. All of this results in a lot of overhead.
Review from Engineering Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Their mindset, Personality, And words, they dont care about me
Clear ownership and accountability structure
Review from Product Dept
Less talking more working. Let the CEO get fired.
Review from Admin Dept
Stronger executive team, especially the CEO and Engineering
The company needs to Do What Works, not what the Agile Manifesto tells them to do.
Review from Engineering Dept
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Figure out competency for each job family
Review from Product Dept
It is very negative. Make the place look less like Garbage.
Review from Admin Dept
The process was quite easy overall and didn't seriously test my engineering knowledge. The architectural interview problem was deliberately poorly defined and didn't provide much signal. Managers didn't know how to evaluate tech, so they just asked about Agile. Everyone was very friendly.
Review from Engineering Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
I think that roblox is not doing stuff for the old players and just doing stuff for the new players and are not treating it fair and i think there should be a ranking system and a event game were you can earn rewards and nice avatar things and maybe lower the price of robux because its a bit alot
The people there only eat doughnuts and stay there sitting around.
Review from Admin Dept
Under the banner of "self organization", the company has failed to assert common practices, hiring standards, or decent org-wide tooling. Meeting load can be very high; people pay lip service to process rather than trying to minimize it. Company is hiring too fast w/o needed support infrastructure.
Review from Engineering Dept
