Pros

Playbuzz offers a real opportunity to roll up your sleeves and drive business. The management sits with the team and are receptive to ideas and insights no matter what level you are within the organization. The design of the new office space is very well done and the organization creates a fun environment with happy hours and team events.

Cons

The challenges of communicating and understanding the structure of teams in different time zones.

Pros

Great snacks, a select few employees are really amazing and I'm lucky to work with them everyday. Please note, most of the good reviews on here are about other offices, not NYC.

Cons

Lack of direction, high turnover rate, toxic HR. Product is sub-par with NYC standards. Playbuzz has a history of hiring and laying off people within a few months (or even days at HQ). They've let about 40% of us go over the last 6 months. It's common practice to lie to potential employees during the hiring process about the state of the business before bringing them on-board. Due to chaotic lay-offs and firings, we have residual fear of being let go nearly everyday. Claims to have amazing benefits and cover health insurance, but copays are $30 and $50. Israeli management working in the NYC office doesn't really talk to us Americans. It's weird as we all sit in the same room (it's not that big of a room).
