I came to post the same comment. They are going to lose their best people but it wont matter. Or their top 5% will get the ok to work remotely.
Roblox is the exact opposite of any company I would want to be involved with. It is a platform to create malformed children, a simulated dystopian hellscape.
- LoganDark 3y ago> They are going to lose their best people I doubt Arseny is going to leave over this.
- nerpderp82 3y agoNo but they might lose Alan Jeffrey. Whom I'd happily hire if the stars aligned.
- LoganDark 3y agoThat'd be a loss for sure, yeah. I think they mainly work on Luau language stuff and developer experience / type inference? AFAIK Arseny works more on deep VM level stuff, or at least that's what he would talk about back when we were in contact.

So they are just straight-up admitting that RTO is a punishment for bad performance / inadequate skillset? They're apparently just trying to extract extra performance out of people that would rather just lay off.
