Pros

Not much, except of some talented people. I hope they wake up and start looking for another job in companies that appreciate their people and live and work by their values.

Cons

A lot of people were fired in the last weeks. The reason, employees were told, was Corona.That came very surprisingly for everybody. The company seemed to be in good shape, at least that's what we have been told in the last few months. “We are doing ok” was a sentence that was said multiple times from the C-Level in the General Meeting. Two weeks later, people were fired and offices were shut down. So, there are some questions coming up: Where did that all come from all of a sudden? If Cloudflight is in such a bad state, why was there never short time work until October 2020? Why was the company still hiring throughout the year? Did the C-Level sleep during the last months? What role does the investor play in all that? Are all the dismissals REALLY because of Corona? I mean how many tech companies are struggling right now? (Not so many, I guess.) Was there really no other way than dismissing people, especially in a time with so much uncertainty? Should it not be the HIGHEST priority of a company to protect their people in a worldwide pandemic?

Pros

Very nice colleagues who deserve better management.

Cons

After all the speeches we've heard from the management, that we/they communicate openly and honestly (I quote: "even in good and bad times"), turned out, it was too good to be true. Truth is, they fired aprox. 20 people, after we were constantly told not worry about our job safety until the last minute. This collective dismissal wasn't justified by any of our perfomance, value or effort. It just came down to a simple location discrimination. It was just about whoever was the easiest to banish/eliminate. Of course, they prepared everything with great care, so neither of us could do anything or act in a legal way. No comp salaries, no support in finding a new job (especially now, during Corona times), no thank you, at all. Yes, that is right! None of us got any "thank you for your effort" from the management board. This is just another corporation, in which the workers are the ones that are paying for bad management. Be aware!

We are really sorry to read your feedback. It is true that we had structural changes, but we treated every single affected employee in a fair way by giving compensatory salaries and additional days off during the notice period. Additionally, nobody had to work from the day of the notification till the end of the notice period. We definitely value and appreciate your engagement, commitment and energy you put in this company. We are really sorry that we caused the impression of not being thankful, this was never our intention because we are grateful for every single minute you have been with us and for all your contributions. We wish you all the very best for your future. Your People Operations Team
