AviaGames culture stands out for how it blends inclusivity, growth, and everyday connection into the workplace. As a female-founded company led by CEO Vickie Chen and Co-founder Ping Wang, more than 40% of the team is made up of women, including many in leadership roles. That diversity plays a key role in shaping both the company culture and the experiences created for players.
Supporting Growth from Within
What’s notable about AviaGames is how it encourages employees to take an active role in their own development. Programs like Pitch for Promotion give team members the chance to present their growth plans directly, while the Avia Culture Star Program highlights individuals who consistently reflect company values in their work.
There’s also a lighter side to how participation is recognized. Through the Avia Merchandise Program, employees can earn points by taking part in company activities, from larger initiatives like charity efforts to everyday moments, and exchange them for branded merchandise.
Creating Everyday Moments of Connection
Beyond structured programs, AviaGames puts effort into building connections across teams. Employees can join a range of clubs, including sports like badminton, soccer, and table tennis, or take part in company-wide tournaments. Daily shared meals, with complimentary breakfast and lunch, also create regular opportunities for teams to connect.
Meet Tangtang and Jiabao
One of the more unique parts of the AviaGames environment is its two resident rescue cats , Tangtang and Jiabao, who have become part of the workplace. Tangtang, a British Shorthair, lost one eye due to an early injury, while Jiabao survived a serious infection and has no teeth.

Their presence reflects the company’s values around empathy, care, and giving second chances. That mindset doesn’t just stay within the office — it also shows up in initiatives like Play for Paws, where AviaGames supports animal welfare efforts beyond the workplace.
Their presence reflects the company’s values around empathy and care, and it’s had a noticeable impact. Internal survey data shows that more than half of employees feel more motivated to come into the office, along with reporting lower stress levels and improved workplace satisfaction. The cats were also featured in Fortune magazine for their role in boosting office morale.
A Culture That Extends Beyond Work
Taken together, these efforts highlight a culture that focuses not just on performance, but on creating an environment where employees feel supported and connected. It’s a reminder that strong communities are built through both structured initiatives and the small, everyday moments that bring people together.
