Giving Back the Bay Tek Way: Supporting the Communities Where We Work, Play, and Live

At Bay Tek Entertainment, “fun” isn’t just what we build into our games it’s what we bring to life in our people and in the communities we call home. Founded in 1977 and proudly headquartered in Pulaski, Wisconsin, we’re a family-owned company driven to provide fun and profit through innovative arcade and ticket redemption games.
Being part of The Village Companies, a family of more than 350 employees across amusement, consumer products, and contract manufacturing, means we share a purpose that reaches far beyond our factory walls. We believe business should be a force for good. That’s why we live by the simple principle that success is measured not just by what we make, but by what we give back.
Giving 120%: Two Ways We Invest in People and Purpose
At Bay Tek and The Village, giving isn’t an annual checkbox it’s part of our DNA. We call it “We Give 120%.”
We dedicate 10% of annual profits to our people and another 10% to our communities, because we believe the two go hand-in-hand. When our team thrives, our communities flourish and when our communities flourish, our people thrive.
10% Back to Our People
The first 10% goes directly to our employees through profit-sharing bonuses. It’s one of the ways we say thank you to the people who pour their creativity, craftsmanship, and care into every game that bears the Bay Tek name. Whether you’re designing a new concept, machining a part, or supporting our customers, your contribution matters and we make sure it’s recognized.
10% Back to Our Communities
The second 10% is pledged to charitable causes and local initiatives that align with our values. From youth programs and food pantries to faith-based missions and environmental projects, our giving reaches across Northeast Wisconsin and beyond. But we don’t just write checks we show up. You’ll find Bay Tek team members volunteering their time, sharing their skills, and lending a hand wherever it’s needed most.
Random Acts of Kindness: Empowering Employees to Give Back
We know that generosity looks different for everyone. That’s why each month, during our all-hands meeting, we draw five employee names and donate $500 to the charity of their choice.
This simple but meaningful tradition allows every team member to champion the causes close to their heart, whether that’s supporting a veterans’ organization, rescuing animals, funding cancer research, or helping a local family in need.
These Random Acts of Kindness have become a highlight of our culture, sparking smiles, gratitude, and connection across our team and community.
More Than a Workplace: A Family That Gives Back
Our home in Pulaski, Wisconsin, a small town of just over 3,500 people, is the perfect reflection of who we are: hardworking, humble, and full of heart. Those small-town values guide everything we do at Bay Tek Entertainment and throughout The Village Companies.
We’re united by a shared vision: to create awesome entertainment for people of all ages, to work with people we love and care about, and to run successful businesses so we can give back to the places that have given us so much.
Joining Bay Tek means more than starting a new job. It means becoming part of a team that believes in people first where fun, innovation, and community impact come together to make something truly special.
So, whether you’re already part of the Bay Tek Family or thinking about joining us, know this: when you work here, you’re helping bring fun alive and making life better for others while you do it.
