What's the Company Culture Like at SciPlay?

Tell us about SciPlay Corp’s approach to the in-office experience. How are these elements emblematic of your team culture?

At SciPlay, the in-office experience is about fostering a vibrant and collaborative community. Our Austin studio reflects this with diverse workspaces, from focused individual desks to collaborative meeting areas, designed to enhance both productivity and social interaction. With a well-stocked kitchen, including multiple snack and drink options, coffee/tea bars and lounge areas, we have created a space where people feel cared for and equipped for success. 

We believe in a balanced approach, offering flexibility while also nurturing strong team bonds. 

Whether through themed lunches, happy hours or gaming tournaments, we bring teams together to celebrate milestones, share ideas and simply have fun. These moments help create an environment where our team members feel valued, connected and empowered.

In your opinion, what about your in-office experience feels the most impactful on your daily work life? What is your favorite part of the in-person experience? 

The most impactful aspect of the in-office experience at SciPlay is the enhanced collaboration. The ability to spontaneously discuss ideas, seek immediate feedback and build rapport through casual interactions significantly boosts productivity and creativity. It feels more natural than a video call or a Slack message, and working in-person helps me feel more in tune to what’s happening across the office. 

My favorite part of being in-office is the strong sense of community. Shared lunches, impromptu celebrations and casual conversations really create a supportive, team-focused environment. This fosters a feeling of belonging and makes the workday more enjoyable and fulfilling.

Is there anything you're looking forward to with the in-office experience?

I'm really looking forward to our annual spring family crawfish boil. It’s always a fun time to gather with colleagues and their families, share some great food and enjoy each other's company outside the usual work environment. It's a tradition that brings everyone together. There's something special about having the opportunity to connect on a more personal level outside of the office, and it's a reminder of how great our office culture is here at SciPlay.

In my 13 years in the gaming industry, I’ve worked for companies that are incredibly corporate, where there were multiple channels and approvals and things that you had to go through to get your idea across. Here at SciPlay, even at the top level, our CEO is involved in our day-to-day decisions and we all collaborate together to make the very best decisions for our games.

I believe everybody who is in the ship of the company moving toward growth is going to grow with the company, is going to learn new skills, is going to experience excitement of new boundaries, and it comes with challenge, but I think that challenge is very satisfying.

My favorite thing about working at SciPlay is definitely the people. SciPlay does a really excellent job of making sure when we’re hiring people, we’re not just looking for qualifications, but also asking about individual experiences. And I think that really is reflected in the culture here with the level of trust and respect that we have.
