Multiple Review
Former EmployeeWorked at Cloudflight in Wien, Wien until 2025 and has submitted multiple reviews for this employer. (Employees are allowed to review once per year.)
What I like about the employer
- Work-Life-Balance hängt vom konkreten Projekt und Kunden ab, ist aber für die meisten bei Cloudflight sehr human, so weit ich das einschätzen kann. - Sehr liebe Kolleg:innen, viel Hilfsbereitschaft, auch, wenn man nicht direkt zusammenarbeitet. - Lockere Atmosphäre und bodenständige Kultur
What I dislike about the employer
- Viel Fluktuation beim Management - Zukunft des Unternehmens wegen Private Equity Eigentümerstruktur ungewiss - Bezahlung für die IT-Branche nicht großartig; das ist sowohl auf die aktuell schwierige Auftragslage (Privatwirtschaft schwächelt in Österreich, öffentlicher Sektor hat Sparprogramm) als auch auf die harte Verhandlungsführung durch die Eigentümer zurückzuführen
Work-Life Balance
Sehr viel individuelle Freiheit bei der Arbeitsgestaltung; hängt aber natürlich vom konkreten Projektteam ab.
Environmental and social responsibility
Klimaticket für alle Mitarbeiter:innen ist ein super Benefit!

What I like about the employer
- Einstellungsprozess verlief sehr zügig und Feedbacks erfolgten innerhalb von wenigen Tagen - Interviewpartner wirkten direkt im ersten Eindruck professional und vor allem Dingen nahbar und menschlich - Unternehmenswerte werden gelebt. Sie spiegeln sich im alltäglichen Verhalten der Arbeitskollegen und Mitarbeiter wider. - Flache Hierarchie und Duzkultur
A really a great company with a top team, Spirit and visions

What I like about the employer
So many things. From my point of view, and i have been in many companies, Cloudflight is the best company, i've ever been. Starting with the recruiting process and ending in a jobrole with perspectives, great colleagues and team and great company environment T all
Former Working StudentDid no longer work in Distribution / Sales at Cloudflight in Wien, Wien at the time of review.
What I like about the employer
Super Gehalt, super Leute im Unternehmen, gute Mitarbeiterboni (Klimaticket, Lern Budget, Rabatte, Essenszuschuss, ...), flexible und zuvorkommende Zeitgestaltung (ideal für Studenten)
What I dislike about the employer
Ich fand es etwas fragwürdig, dass mir die Firma eine einvernehmlichen Kündigung verweigert hat, obwohl meine direkten Führungskräften dem zugestimmt hatten und nichts dagegen hatten. Komisches Verhalten von HR.
Intern ist die Kommunikation oftmals anstrengend, was dazu führt, dass die eigentlich nicht komplexen Aufgaben dann unnötig länger brauchen bzw. nicht fertig gestellt werden. Weiters müssen Themen doppelt und dreifach kommuniziert werden, da die Kommunikation einfach oft nicht funktioniert.
Im Team selbst fehlt etwas die Verbindung, da alle ihre eigenen Aufgaben verfolgen. Team-Dinner oder anderweitige Treffen gibt es so gut wie garnicht.
Suggestions for improvement
Etwas mehr team-interne Treffen (Dinner, ...) und allgemein besseren Teamzusammenhalt

What I like about the employer
This is a company where people - take great care of each other <3 - put their values ahead in everything they do - always strive for excellence with great passion and determination
High turnover and lack of direction make Cloudflight a challenging place to build a career
2.1
Not recommended
Worked at Cloudflight at the time of review.
What I like about the employer
Unless significant changes are made to address the issues mentioned above, I cannot recommend Cloudflight as a good place to work.
Suggestions for improvement
Make the environment more stable and inclusive. The constant restructuring, lack of clear leadership, and arbitrary employment policies create an unsustainable working environment.
Working atmosphere
Hire and Fire Policy: The company has a 'hire and fire' policy that can catch you off guard. Several colleagues were let go without any pre-warning, sometimes even on the last day of their probationary period.
Work-Life Balance
Flexible Working Hours: The company offers a flexible working schedule, which can be convenient.
Interaction with older colleagues
Ageism: There is an unspoken bias against employees over 30, who are not considered for the fast-track career opportunities that are made available to younger colleagues.
Leadership behavior
Insecurity: There is a palpable sense of insecurity here. I had to report to several different people in a short period, and it was often unclear who was responsible for what. No one took responsibility for mentoring or guiding new hires, making the initial learning curve steeper than necessary.
Working conditions
Empty Words on Remote Culture: Although the company promotes a remote-friendly culture, living closer to the office definitely has its advantages in terms of visibility and career progression.
Communication
Restructuring as a Standard: The company goes through a restructuring at least every six months. This creates a sense of instability and uncertainty for all employees, not just new hires.
Equality
Lack of Community and Diversity: The office culture is dominated by a consultant-sales group primarily interested in typical tech-male topics. The claim of having a diverse and inclusive community felt like empty promises.

Employer Comment
Michal JanecekEmployer branding specialist
Thank you for your constructive feedback!
We understand that the recent past brought many changes which were not always easy to understand. A growth process like the one we went through sometimes makes it necessary to revise decisions that have been made. Rest assured, we do not hire anyone with the ulterior motive of terminating the employment relationship on the basis of minor issues. It is important for us to learn from such experiences in order to improve our processes.
We are also taking your criticism of remote culture as an opportunity to think about better integration.
Your criticism regarding equal rights and the treatment of older colleagues seems to be partly location-specific. We would appreciate if you would contact us about this, in case you didn’t already address it in the exit interview.
A great place to work and grow

Former EmployeeDid no longer work in IT at Cloudflight in Linz, Oberösterreich at the time of review.
What I like about the employer
Without exaggeration the best place I ever worked. Polite and helpful people everywhere, interesting projects that use state-of-the-art technology, lots of opportunities to learn and grow.
Working atmosphere
The atmosphere in all teams i worked in is really safe, everybody is eager to help others when needed. I was never afraid to ask questions, as the company culture is to rather ask early than get stuck alone.
Image
Most of the people I know in the company really like the company and its image.
Work-Life Balance
flexible work time, if you need to take a day off it's usually no problem.
Career/Professional development
the career options within the company are clear and transparent. the things you learn here are applicable at many other places.
Salary/Social benefits
i think the salary is below average. what makes good for it - in my opinion - is the unique company culture.
Collegiality
Company activities are usually organized by employees on their own initiative, and they are then issued a per-person budget to use for the activity. Some people never participate, some are always on board - if you value social activities with your colleagues you can get them.
Interaction with older colleagues
the average age in the company is pretty young, but people are respected without regard to their age.
Leadership behavior
i had a good relationship with my superiors, whenever i needed to talk they were there to listen.
Working conditions
state of the art workplaces, computers and equipment.
Communication
People respond really fast when someone writes them a message, and everyone up to the very top management is really approachable.
Equality
unfortunately there are not a lot of women in the company, especially not developers. they are treated equally though as far as i can tell.
Interesting tasks
definitely one of the strong points - typical projects last between 6 months and a few years, after that it's on to something new. never gets boring. if you don't like being in a project, bring it up and people will help you find a solution.

What I like about the employer
Super Work-Life-Balance aufgrund der Einfachheit bei der Umstellung von den Wochenstunden! Man hat als Arbeitnehmer jede Menge Freiheiten&Goodies und gerade die Weiterbildungsmöglichkeiten intern sind echt ein guter Grund für Cloudflight als Arbeitgeber!
Career/Professional development
Interne Weiterbildungsmöglichkeiten werden gefördert und sind erwünscht (Top)! Jeder kann sich in seiner gewünschten Rolle weiterbilden und ausbilden lassen!
Salary/Social benefits
Gehalt ist nicht schlecht, sobald man Berufserfahrung hat ist es zwar nicht ganz so standesgemäß, jedoch kann man dies bei den Gehaltsverhandlungen ausgleichen! Gerade für Berufseinsteiger absolut angemessen und besser als bei anderen!
Working conditions
Gute Büroausstattung und angenehme Atmosphäre. Durch die Renovierung im Linzer Büro wurde dies jetzt auf den Standard des Wiener Büros gehoben und sieht einfach gut aus!
