Covid-19 times vs Playson
As an Agile Company, we were amongst the first ones in Ukraine to have transferred to remote work in mid-March 2020. Thanks to flawless communication and Scrum processes, we managed to maintain and even increase our productivity whilst working remotely — and we are super proud of that. 💪

What does it mean for newcomers in Playson?
🔹We hire employees for full-time remote work from all over Ukraine.
🔹In case you decide to work remotely forever — it is totally fine with us.
🔹In case you decide to work in our office in Kiev or occasionally visit it- great news! We have renovated and transformed it to a co-working style so that our employees can have a hybrid choice of work-mode ( mixing work at home and in the office just for a change)
🔹During pandemic times we make sure that your first days and weeks in Playson are as convenient as possible:

💻technical equipment is delivered to your home address wherever you are in Ukraine
🖥adaptation and onboarding on an immaculate level will make no difference in joining the company remotely.
