About Donna Dodd

As Director of Total Rewards at PlayCore, I lead the design and strategy of compensation, benefits, and leave programs that impact thousands of employees across 40+ business units. My mission is to create people-first programs that employees value and trust, while driving alignment with PlayCore’s long-term business goals.I specialize in:* Benefits strategy & vendor partnerships (Empyrean, Empower, WEX, BCBS, Delta Dental, VSP, Prudential, etc.)*Compensation design & job architecture, ensuring pay structures are competitive and equitable*Compliance & audits across 401(k), ACA, EEO-1, and payroll/HRIS integrations*Employee engagement through initiatives like benefits fairs and the “Monthly Benefits Spotlight”I believe Total Rewards goes beyond pay and benefits—it’s a strategic driver of culture, retention, and engagement. I’m passionate about building programs that reflect PlayCore’s values of integrity, competency, and compassion, and I enjoy collaborating with HR and business leaders to share insights and elevate the employee experience.
