I had an interview with Roku. Initially I liked the company, but after reading some of the Glassdoor reviews, the place doesn’t seem a good place for work. Are there any Roku employees on Blind who could confirm Glassdoor reviews? Would appreciate any input.
I know a friend at Roku - he’s pretty happy working there , good comp, and good wlb.
Don't go after glassdoor reviews, my experience has been positive, though I have not reviewed on glassdoor yet..
Depends on the team. What team are you joining?
Don’t believe Glassdoor reviews. It’s not true. At the same time not everyone can survive here. It’s similar to Netflix culture. Did you get the offer?
Honestly I was a bit worried when I joined Roku. There were a few team members who were jerks. These few have left and a lot of great people joined. I've never been so happy working in a tech company: great TC, team work, a lot of challenges and products that people use. Hope you make the right decision.
How is the sense of ownership and collaboration between teams ?
OP how did your interview go? Please give us updates.

Glassdoor reviews are skewed by poor performers who quit or got let go. Roku is a very small company so a vocal minority will outweigh the scores on Glassdoor. Personally I like it. Supportive teams and good WLB.
How are the benefits? I have a family and have decent coverage now. We have a good pediatrician and don’t want to lose him. He accepts only specific kinds of insurance.
What insurance does he accept? Our benefits are really good, but also expensive. Our recruiter can send you the deck on benefits which should lay out costs pretty clearly for your situation. I use Cigna. You can search on google for their website to see if your doctor is in network or not.
