AYO.NEWS says:
Considering the rapidly growing COVID-19 lockdown-triggered economic catastrophe engulfing so many sectors, it’s fantastic to see esports organisations are still hiring and driving growth. It seems like a talented bunch of people Panda Global just hired too, on both the player and business side of things, so we’re sure they will fit right in.
