The team and environment are by far the best reason to work at PocketWorlds! The team is fantastic to work with, fun, and always very supportive of each other.

If you want to work somewhere where you opinion is valued, and your team is there to back you up, then PocketWorlds is the right place.Cons
If I have to write a con, it would be that there are TOO many cool things we want to build.Be Ambitious
We measure success by the depth of our impact. We're not interested in incremental growth; we charge towards massive leaps achieved through fast-paced learning and execution. We’re about making substantial changes, not just slight adjustments.
Be Fast
With an MVP testing mindset, we embrace uncertainty as an opportunity to learn. We propose hypotheses, build, test, stumble, learn, and continue advancing. In times of certainty, methodical strategies guide us. We move fast, fueled by the excitement of transforming unknowns into knowns and the process of exploration.
Be an Owner
We operate as owners, not tenants. An owner anticipates and mitigates problems, capitalizes on opportunities, and invests with foresight. Owning means embracing the long game, seeing the fruits of our labor over time. Tenancy often involves a short-term focus, overlooking the potential of building a lasting legacy.
Be Curious
To us, curiosity is the gateway to learning, pushing boundaries, and seeking clarity in the face of uncertainty. We balance exploration with exploitation, intuitively knowing when to inquire and when to implement. It's about recognizing when to foster curiosity and when to channel conviction.
Be a Team Player
Our environment is not zero-sum. Every triumph of one is a triumph for all, and every setback for one is felt by all. Our focus is on collective collaboration, where individuals unite their talents and efforts to achieve mutual success, propelling our company forward.
Be Player Focused
We exist to serve our users. Our creations stem from their needs, not our desires. This commitment drives us to empathize and step into the users' shoes, shaping our development approach.
We are a global community of trailblazers, dreamers, and game-changers committed to transforming the way people connect. Join us in shaping the future.
Work Anywhere
We believe talent can be found all over the world. We were a fully-remote company before COVID because of this truth. We have team members around the globe, in places like Austin, Zagreb, Buenos Aires, Amsterdam, and more. We encourage everyone to work at defined times when they do their best work while balancing team collaboration, and all team members receive generous workspace stipends.
Transparency & Ownership
To truly be an owner, we believe that one must have skin in the game. That's why we default to offering meaningful equity packages. We also prioritize data transparency - all product metrics and data are available and shared internally. We host monthly All Hands meetings to keep the entire company engaged and informed.
Team Building & Connection
Despite being fully remote, we deeply value our work relationships. That's why we host annual retreats to meet face-to-face, and offer a $25 per person monthly event and activity team building stipend.
Inclusive Benefits
We offer 8 weeks of fully paid parental leave for any team member who becomes a parent, as well as comprehensive medical benefits (covering 70% of the premium for US team members). We also cover a $50 fitness allowance.
Massive Impact
We serve millions of users and thousands of creators. Join us on our mission to revolutionize social interaction, experience, and connection by enabling creators to build immersive worlds and earn an income while doing it. At Pocket Worlds, you have the opportunity to directly impact the lives of millions of people.
Grow With Us
We are lifelong learners and encourage everyone at Pocket Worlds to develop their skills and knowledge with a $1000/year budget for programs, certifications, and learning materials.
