Pros

Working at Playground is a delight because the people are amazing. The founders have created a great culture and work ethic by hiring people that are striving to be their best and awarding the effort they put in. The company trusts its employees and gives them the autonomy to work however they think is best and management is open to new ideas and feedback.

Cons

There is occasionally a need to work out of hours, but it's a rare occurrence.
