Pros

PlayQ is a great place to start to get your feet wet in the gaming industry. Most people are new to the industry or have worked at smaller gaming companies. CEO is focused and a great leader. The PlayQ community is made up of friendly, smart colleagues who are dedicated and easy to work with.

Cons

Attrition comes mostly from the data and user acquisition teams, because that entire teams reports into the chief performance officer who is very difficult to work with. Employees are reprimanded for being 2-3 minutes "late" to work and threatened with losing their jobs if they show up a few minutes late for work. He doesn't care that there is traffic in LA / Santa Monica. The office is located right near 3rd street promenade which can have a lot of seasonal heavy traffic. The team is kept in meetings for hours on end (3+ hours at a time) and not allowed to break or regroup.
