5 great cloud companies to work for in Europe

If you work in the tech industry, you’ll be aware of the increasing pace of layoffs that have gathered momentum through the spring and summer of this year. Big, seemingly untouchable names such as payments decacorn Klarna are suffering. It is on its second round of job cuts, and layoffs have reportedly hit Meta and Google too. 

One sector that is so far resilient is the cloud. The industry had a great pandemic as businesses necessarily had to change how they did things. Those that used on-premise solutions had to quickly move to solutions that included virtual desktops, file sharing, messaging and remote team management solutions. 

For many companies that had been resisting cloud services, or only at the point of investigating them, this accelerated the digitisation of their customer and supply-chain interactions and of their internal operations by several years.

The surge is exponential: as more people use cloud services, they become more familiar and comfortable with them. This encourages further usage, and Gartner predicts that the sector will only grow as a result with 95% of new digital workloads deployed on cloud-native platforms by 2025.
