Benefits that compete with Europe without European salaries
Tunisian game studios are chronically losing top Unity and Unreal Engine talent to Europe due to higher salaries and better working conditions, creating persistent skills shortages.
PerkForge lets Tunisian studio owners assemble attractive, pre-negotiated benefits packages in minutes. From Udemy teams, co-working credits, conference travel stipends, to mental health support designed for crunch culture. Everything is localized, trackable, and priced for Tunisian studio budgets.
