Unity Vilnius: Office & City Guide
Our Office
The Unity Vilnius office is located in a rapidly growing business zone in the new centre of Vilnius, alongside the Neris River at Konstitucijos Ave. 21A. It’s a prestigious urban location where we have recently expanded our office with a brand-new floor. Currently, we have 2 floors, 1 beautiful terrace, 175 desks, and 11 conference rooms.
Who we are
Our Vilnius office is home to over 100 employees from various teams. The biggest team in the office is the Customer QA team, followed by Sustain Engineering QA, R&D Mobile Editor & Tools, and Graphics QA.
Our office is easily accessible with a nearby parking garage and bike rack. We have a lot of cool perks and amenities such as weekly yoga classes, coffee stations filled with snacks and drinks, and lunch in the nearby restaurants. To keep you entertained, the office has a pool table, table tennis, and of course a games lounge where employees can unwind after a busy day and get competitive with their teammates.
What do we do for fun?
In the Vilnius office, the last Friday of the month is a special one, as we gather for Friday Social. We celebrate the birthdays of that month with some cake and activities and spend time together.
Our teams are also excited to celebrate PRIDE month, which became an annual Unity event. The teams engage in various activities each year to support LGBT communities.
The two main events we have in the Vilnius Unity office are the Winter and Summer Party. The annual Winter party is where we spend time together and end the year doing something fun. The summer party is unique each year. The Workplace Experience team takes this opportunity to surprise us with performances, amazing food, activities, and crafts.
