Life at Mito Group
We like to say that the only thing we take seriously is work. Well, to be able to see the world through this lens we need our special little occasions when we can just be silly. This is what we like to call Mito Life.
Back in the day this meant that we had a couple of drinks together after work. Every day. As we started to experiment with a bit more sophisticated events the number of occasions just grew and grew, but they had one thing in common: the more irregular the better. Hopefully creating a world both wonderful and strange(tm).
We’ve gathered a couple of our signature rituals, feasts or competitons so you can get an idea what spending days at Mito is like.
A taste of life at Mito Group 💃🕺🍹
MitoNites
Every two months we gather for a couple of drinks with activities centered around a topic. Let that be a Quiz Nite, Harry Potter, Fake News or Rockers VS Skaters – it’s always a long night of fun and competition.
Summer Trips
Our biggest and most important annual event. Everyone packs their things and we head out into the countryside for a full day filled with games, splashes, drinks and of course music.
Movie clubs
A monthly happening with popcorn, a little education and never a blockbuster. Everyone who stays ’til the end can suggest the next movie, which is then selected randomly.
Office Hack Day
A day when everyone tries to become proficient in DIY as we pimp and decorate our office space.
Wine and dine
Of course many of our events revolve around food. We like to eat and cook as well, but clearly prefer eating. We have had Fermentation Festivals, charity bake-offs, Hot Ones competitions and we don’t intend to stop with the strange flavors and calories.
The Mitolympics
Originally a joke which is now a joke with huge infrastructure and purpose. We celebrate the last workday of the year with a custom 12-game olympics which is a perfect warm-up for our XMAS party. Have you ever tried solving a puzzle while blindfolded? With your feet?
Hackathon
One of our longest running traditons where teams have to create some kind of working product in 24 hours. Hopefully in a way that stays on-brief.
Gaming, any kind
It’s not just the physical stuff that keeps us going: saturday LAN parties, tabletop games, our yearly chess competition offers challenge for our minds and reflexes. GL HF!
Sports & Agency Kickoff
We have various team sports that are supported by Mito: football, basketball, volleyball. We’ve entered running competitions as well in the past, we have yoga in the office and we are the proud organizers of Agency Kickoff.
Mito Show & Mito Talks
Every 3 months we showcase what we’ve worked on or inspire each other related to a given topic. A cinema filled with silly people and a canvas filled with interesting ideas and experiences.
Clothing Swap Market
Why buy new when you can trade? Our clothing fair started as a funny idea and became a tradition in rapid success.
Mito Brainy
Inviting guests for interesting talks related to our industry. Creative directors, musicians, screenwriters, you name it. We love learning about other clever things.
Lunch Log
Monthly lunchtime knowledge booster where we dive into topics like ads, emerging tech solutions and ad tech novelties over our takeout boxes. Besides rotating topics, guest speakers and ad face-offs bring variety to these sessions.
Mito Sunrise breakfasts
A habit of ours that transformed a lot since its beginnings: it started out as early morning get togethers featuring unhealthy but delicious Hungarian dishes, but last time it was all about PB&J.
The little ones
Can children come into our office!? Not that they can, but they should! We like to host little celebrations for them come XMAS or children’s day and we also have a mini summer camp for them.
There’s always something going on and there should be. Like a Graduation MitoNite. Check out our 👉 IG feed for a sneak peek into our lives.
