Playtika Reviews

If overtime is required, it's not paid. Even HR said that it's part of the quarterly bonus. But if the game doesn't perform good enough, you don't get any bonus, so you worked overtime for nothing. They pay a lot in social stuff, like a trip in a Mexican resort for everyone when no one got any bonus. But some of the employees would have prefered paid overtime over a trip to Mexico.

No clear vision or leadership. The office is run by someone shipped in from the head office who has no idea + no desire to learn about the different nuances of the local market. As such, the entire team lacks direction, there is no planning and the whole operations are on a downward spiral. The culture in the Tokyo office is a complete 180 from what is sold on the Playtika website - it is chaotic and tense. Head office in Israel pays no attention to Japan given the tiny market presence and makes no effort to fix or resolve any of the issues. Japan office does a localized version of the game, but there is no knowledge sharing or interaction from the head office (we are left to run blind). The entire operation is completely revenue focused. There is no focus on the end user or the game experience. The company only cares about revenue and the number of users. Despite customers constantly complaining and the game crashing due to unstable servers, the company still prioritizes monetization. Complete lack of customer focus. All issues have been raised to global HR numerous times who ignores it each time. The Japan office is a lost cause. There is no career progression, support or learning opportunities
