Pros
My experience at Playmind has been a positive one. The team I was working with was a mix of stagiaires and experienced developers which created a cool dynamic. In fact, there was never a morning when I came into the job and didn't feel like it. Playmind remains to this day one of the places where I had the most fun working with other talented people. Is this a place to learn and grow? Yes, but like any small studio, mentoring in your field will be limited to the people you are working close to. More seasoned developers tend to leave for other companies, and the cycle repeats again, which is, in my opinion, as it should be. I am grateful to Playmind for the opportunity to work with great people on cool, small projects.
Kontras
The average dev age seems to be a bit on the younger side and a lot of stagiaires are hired. This is both good and bad. It does bring in some energy into the company, but that energy is not focused and sometimes becomes latent due to a lack of leadership/mentorship by more senior developers.
