Play’n GO Embraces Fully Remote Work, Closing All Physical Offices by 2024

Play'n GO, a prominent iGaming developer, is set to undergo a significant transformation as they transition to a fully remote working model by the end of 2024. In a recent interview with Play'n GO's chief people officer, James Trusler, iGaming Next shed light on the company's plan to embrace remote work fully. As part of this transition, Play'n GO has already taken steps to close its London and Budapest offices, with the Manila office scheduled for closure in October 2024.

Trusler emphasised that this strategic shift towards remote work was made after extensive consultations with their employees. The company took into account their staff's preferences and offered them the option to choose between working from physical offices or remotely. The outcome of this analysis led them to realise that being a digital-first workplace is the way forward for Play'n GO.

This shift brings several advantages, including increased access to talent and enhanced productivity. Despite the closure of physical locations, Play'n GO continues to experience growth and is expanding the list of countries from which they can hire new team members. By embracing a fully remote approach, Play'n GO is positioning itself for a dynamic future in the iGaming industry.

Our Conclusion

The shift to fully remote work by Play'n GO has raised concerns among some about potential player scams facilitated from home. There are calls for greater transparency, urging the company to provide a straightforward way for players to access the Return to Player (RTP) information of slots, rather than having to delve into the page code. Critics argue that this would enhance trust and ensure a more accountable gaming environment for players.
