In an industry where demand for top talent keeps increasing, it’s our challenge to recruit and retain the creative minds that will help our video game studio flourish…and we love a good challenge.
At Reflector Entertainment, we’ve set out to create the best possible workplace for our people. We’re talking great employee healthcare benefits, career development opportunities, and policies that prioritise work-family balance. Â
If you’re looking to join a passionate, empowered team and contribute to ambitious company projects, here’s why you should start the next chapter of your career at Reflector.
1. Support from the world-renowned Bandai Namco Group
In 2020, Reflector joined Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe, part of the publishing group behind blockbuster titles such as Pac-Man, Elden Ring, Armored Core, and more. This partnership ensures we have the resources to pursue our long-term gaming and transmedia ambitions–and means you do, too.
So, while we’re still a Montreal company at heart, we’ve got an international reputation. A job here launches you into the worldwide game development community and gives you the opportunity to craft epic entertainment experiences for a global audience. The sky’s the limit!
2. Creative challenges and teamwork
When you’re building extraordinary narrative universes shared through multiple media on numerous platforms, innovation is the quotidian. Every day at Reflector brings new puzzles for your team to solve. Whether you’re tackling technical challenges, developing novel approaches to storytelling, or testing out new workflows, opportunities for personal growth and creative accomplishment abound.
3. Employee flexibility
Our facilities are located in the heart of downtown Montreal, are equipped with ergonomic workstations and top-of-the-line equipment, and are filled with cool people to talk to…but we understand that coming into the office five times a week can be tricky. Thanks to our hybrid work policy and flexible hours, you can work from home on the days when it just makes more sense.
Employee well-being is top of mind for us, and we know that work-life balance helps creative souls thrive. Whether you prefer the office or the comfort of your home, if it helps you do your best work, we’re here for it.
4. Career advancement opportunities
When we invest in your future, we’re investing in ours. That’s why talent development is a key part of the Reflectorian experience. We devote time and resources to helping our team members level up their skills, feel empowered in their abilities, and meet professional goals. Your manager will serve as your coach and biggest ally in making it happen.
5. Exceptional work-life balance
When you work hard, you know the value of a good day off. Or thirteen. In December, Reflector celebrates the festive season with two weeks of paid leave to spend with loved ones–without impacting your already accumulated vacation days. We also top up five annual bank holidays, turning Easter, Fête Nationale du Québec, Canada Day, Labour Day, and Thanksgiving into four-day long weekends!
Plus, flexible summer Fridays means more time to spend on Montreal’s many terrasses. It’s enough to recharge your batteries on a regular basis.
6. Top-tier benefits
Reflector Entertainment sets itself apart by offering great health benefits, which we finance at 80%. Our comprehensive health insurance policy covers dental, medical, paramedical care, and for anything not covered, an additional health management account can drastically reduce costs.
What’s more, thanks to a partnership with the Dialogue telemedicine platform, our employees and their families benefit from convenient online medical consultations paid for by Reflector. We pay particular attention to mental health on the job, offering 100%-paid access to stress management resources and programs.
The cherry on top? Personal days that start when you do and unlimited sick days.
7. Diversity, inclusion, and respect
Collective success means everyone feels included and respected. Our employees hail from not just Montreal, Quebec, or Canada, but all over the world, bringing a wealth of perspectives and cultures to the table. We value creating an inclusive workplace that adds to much-needed diversity in video games, one where everyone has the space to put themselves forward authentically.
To support this aim, an employee-led committee for diversity and inclusion in the workplace organizes webinars, forums, and other exchanges that celebrate both our individual differences and the aspects that unite us (like our love of gaming!)
8. Quality team-building experiences
Beyond the all-important healthy, inclusive work environment, we think quality time spent together is a vital part of any team’s success. Our busy Engagement Committee gives us ample opportunity to strengthen bonds within and across our departments, planning all kinds of events tailored to the many interests of our Montreal team members.
From lunches and game nights to happy hours and themed parties, you’ll have a ton of opportunities to mingle with programmers, artists, developers, level designers, and management. Fun is part of the job.
