All 3 are my top choices/dream companies for this job search. Got an offer from Twitch and Epic, both similar TC (a little under 300k). Offers expire this week. Also did the Roblox interview but they're taking a while to get back to me, saying I'm potentially being down leveled and they have to make sure they're okay with that. Based on levels.fyi if I did end up with an offer, it'd probably be around 250k TC? Problem is by the time they make a decision both other offers will already expire. Should I just go ahead and take Epic or Twitch? Or try and hold out to see what Roblox says? Would that even be worth it? Quick comparison of companies in my mind is, Twitch is the platform I'm most passionate about, Epic has the most interesting work and apparently I'll never pay for healthcare again with them, but will require the most time/least wlb, and Roblox has a really interesting future and a lot of upside.
roblox still has a lot of room for growth. wlb is great, Dave is huge on that and literally just had the whole company go on spring break PTO, and again in July. beyond friendly and happy coworkers, the exec team is extremely transparent and doesn't hide anything. you won't see this at any other company, definitely not twitch... the thing is, leadership at roblox will reward anyone who can prove they can deliver solid work. no amount of politics can hide that and you will be rewarded for it
Twitch is pretty transparent. I can't say that about Roblox one way or the other. How can you without working at Twitch?
We also have added a bunch of shared global days and weeks off too.
I'm happy at Roblox. I don't know how offers will match up. Has your recruiter mentioned what levels they are considering, or if it's a senior position with downleveling?
I think I was interviewing for IC3, but messed up some stuff on the interviews so it sounds like they're considering whether to put me at IC2. But I don't even know if, with all that, I'll even have a real offer since it could just come back with a rejection overall because they want a solidly IC3 candidate or something. And I feel like likely won't have a final answer until the other offers have expired. :(
Did you tel your recruiter?
Take one of the offers. Wait for Roblox to reply. If you like their offer, just decline the other company. They will blacklist you so I'd probably choose epic (I dunno if Amazon's blacklist extends from twitch)
I.... wouldn’t recommend this. I would tell your recruiter you have offer deadlines and need a decision.
Agree with 2nd Roblox. Little upside to this strange play. Just tell Roblox your other offers and if that doesn't motivate a counter pick one of the others
If people knew the benefits of working at Epic you would see a lot more votes in their favor. Funny how perception drives ill informed decision making. Do you like having everything other Friday off? How about two, two week shutdowns (winter and summer) and open pto? 100% medical coverage (no out of pocket)? High salaries with quarterly bonuses and profit sharing? And on engine dev we have no crunch. I mean what else are you looking for? We work on the most ubiquitously used game engine technology in the world and the benefits are insane.
You mean epic games not the medical company right...? I think it's an awesome place to work. I'm not saying Roblox isn't nice, but it's just really different

Does cardio help for weight loss ?
I work at Twitch and am counting the days till I vest. Take the Job at Roblox Twitch and Epic are Toxic work environments. Twitch is filled with Amazon execs who couldn't cut it at Amazon.
What makes you say that the environment is toxic?
It’s amazon what do u mean? I work at amazon and am counting the days til I vest
