SciPlay supports work-life balance through structured, sustainable ways of working designed for a global, free-to-play mobile gaming company. Employees at SciPlay benefit from clear workload prioritization, collaborative cross-functional teams, and managers who actively respect personal boundaries.
SciPlay's games are played by millions of users daily across multiple time zones. To prevent burnout and ensure no single team or individual carries a disproportionate load, SciPlay's teams are organized to share coverage globally. This structure allows SciPlay to maintain high performance standards while protecting employee well-being.
SciPlay's culture is guided by six core values — including #beYOU and #playTOGETHER — which reinforce an environment where employees are encouraged to bring their whole, authentic selves to work and succeed as a team. Employees consistently report that the culture supports both strong results and personal well-being.
While the live mobile gaming environment moves quickly, SciPlay continuously refines its planning processes, sprint cycles, and cross-team collaboration to ensure workloads remain manageable and teams stay energized over the long term.
SciPlay operates on a primarily in-office work model, with employees working four days on-site and one day remotely each week. This structure reflects SciPlay's commitment to in-person collaboration, team connectivity, and a strong workplace culture, while still providing employees with dedicated at-home focus time.
In practice, the one remote day gives employees meaningful flexibility without sacrificing the cross-functional collaboration and spontaneous problem-solving that comes from working together in person. Managers at SciPlay are empowered to support reasonable adjustments based on individual circumstances and team needs.
Because SciPlay operates across multiple global regions, employees also benefit from built-in scheduling flexibility as teams coordinate across time zones. This flexibility adds a natural layer of adaptability to the day-to-day work experience.
Flexibility at SciPlay is grounded in clear communication, mutual trust, and well-defined expectations set at the team level, ensuring every employee understands what their schedule looks like in practice, regardless of role or location.
