Ego First, Tasks Second

Anonymous employee

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Dog friendly office, some good people, ok office layout

Cons

The compmay culture is built around people that values their ego first and getting things done is second priority. Competency around the company varies by department/team. One of the directors, with absolutely no hands-on experience for the past 7-8 years (check LinkedIn or resume), shines the egotistic culture more brightly than ever

Ambitious game company

Anonymous employee

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Playstudios has laudable ambitions to make really excellent and creative products for the social gaming market, to be knowledgeable about and responsive to players, to innovate in terms of technology and to deliver real returns to investors. It has competitive salary levels, excellent benefits packages and equity participation. It is well-supported by investors and has un-matched connections within the gaming industry.

Cons

Teams experience changes in organizational structure and business focus on a frequent basis without always being given time to prove out the new direction. Management seems easily influenced by the most loudly complaining voices, which are not necessarily those with the best interests of the overall business in mind.

Pros

- people and culture are the #1 reason people stay and enjoy their time at work. - good work/life balance - leaders genuinely care about their employees - ability to innovate and take ownership - a "goldilocks" company, not too big where there is bureaucracy and red tape , but not too small where resources are scarce. it's just right!

Cons

We eat A LOT of cake. not saying that's bad but it can be quite tempting and hard to say no to...first world problems.
