PLAY TIME!
Not what you think. I landed a great job at an fun company called Play.
Play specialized in video hardware and software, disrupting big network video editors. I initially worked in the marketing department designing packaging, magazine ads, and user interfaces.
I moved to the engineering department after two years. This was a huge culture change. Marketing literally looked like the inside of a spaceship, engineering was cubicles and fluorescent lights. BUT, I loved getting to design products again.
Play had a lot of great years, but struggled through 9/11 as many companies did.
