Roblox doesn't get the credit it deserves and that's the problem. Snowflake looks better on your resume and you will have better exit opportunities
Snowflake is very weak at AI, means you have opportunity to make impact but also means you will have high pressure. Roblox might be chill compared with snowflake at your level. It is getting toxic after IC5 level.
Toxic at SF? Btwn, Roblox interview panel was more aggressive.
Toxic at both. These two companies have same original sin, their head of engineering is run by ex-Google executive. And hired A LOT OF Google leadership. I am ex-googler, but I hate Google L7+ people, they are good at politics but super weak at delivery.
Being at Snowflake I’ll tell you to join a company that can actually push products to GA. Our AI/ML game is shit. Even the copilot we launched is abysmal in practice. The product was purely made for demo and that’s all there is to it. No company would ever pay a pretty penny for that let alone any consumer. FWIW I strongly believe that gaming industry has a lot of upside with AI and ML. Look at Rockstar Games and their GTA6 cityscape modeling! Our stock isn’t increasing in the next 1year and a lot of good people from top leadership positions are leaving due to our Head of Engineering — that guy will single handedly run the company into the ground with his micromanagement style and offloading work to Poland
Roblox and Adobe are filled with more toxic leaders compared to Snowflake. Go for Snowflake.
Reading this seems like all the people complaining about toxicity are on blind while the toxic people are in leadership positions without doing shit. Seems like the case at Snowflake, Roblox, Adobe and I can confirm at tinder too.
My advice, Stay far.... far away from RBLX.
IMHO it depends on what the role is and what problem you're trying to solve. Both Snowflake and Roblox are very weak at AI, but Snowflake definitely has more investment in it than Roblox (just look at all the hardware partnership and the deepspeed folks they poached from microsoft). I do think the modality that Roblox (as well as the rest of the gaming industry) is dealing with is very unique in comparison since no other industries really care about 3D mesh generation, and it is a very difficult and ambitious problem to solve for sure.
Not sure about snowflake but Roblox becoming a shitshow
Explain?
I think offer is too low for that level. First line general EM gets more than that
This is senior. Hiring bar...
Clearly says senior swe
