70.1
/ 100
Roblox gives early-career candidates real ways in through recurring internships and early-career roles, and Roblox’s assessment-first approach is unusually explicit about reducing resume bias. Pay transparency is a strength because Roblox job ads commonly publish ranges and equity eligibility, but outcomes are harder to judge because Roblox does not publish intern conversion rates or early-career retention metrics, and public reviews flag inconsistency in return-offer decisions.
