The Fish System

The Fish System is our one-of-a-kind progressive motivational plan based on the principle that a foundation for good work performance is to regularly allow time for relaxing, both physically and mentally. Therefore, it is our tradition to assign “fish”-statuses for employees depending on their time worked at Playtech Estonia.

The higher level fish you are, the more benefits you are entitled to. The highlights of the Fish System include having larger “Fish funds” for reimbursement of personal investments made in health, sport and entertainment, receiving travel vouchers and additional vacation days.

Life at Playtech

During the past 20 years, it has become our tradition to organize lots of company events for employees and their families. The yearly highlights include Summer Days and Christmas Party. In addition to that, we have the annual Information Day, teambuilding events, office parties and celebrations of important national holidays at the office on a regular basis.

Born from employee initiative, the past decade has seen the growth of Playtech’s very own sports series Playthlon with five sports events a year to encourage physical activity and try out different sports activities together with colleagues. We also put a lot of energy into mental wellness activities to keep both the mind and the body healthy.

Offices

Playtech offices are centrally located and have a modern multicultural vibe to them. Kitchens with the best coffee, fruits, dairy, snacks and an ice-cream fridge in the summer have become the norm. Special relaxation areas with table tennis, pool table and game consoles make sure work breaks are a lot of fun. Free massage is available in both offices during working hours.

In Tallinn, since 2016, we are located at a top-notch Ülemiste City office, occupying the four highest floors of the Lõõtsa 5 business building with a great 360 degree view of Tallinn, the airport and the sea.
In Tartu, our five-storey office building is based at the centre of Tartu, on Vanemuine Street. In addition to an atrium, recreational area, terrace and a sports room, we also have a sauna actively in use.
