My opinion about Falck Digital Technology is unfortunately more critical than positive.
At first, you may be attracted by Falck’s mission and values, especially statements such as “people are at the heart of every action.” The idea of working for an organization connected with emergency response and healthcare can sound meaningful. In practice, however, I found it difficult to see a real connection between those values and the daily work in Digital Technology. When people are regularly made redundant, receive only the standard package required by law, and are laid off regardless of their personal situation or contribution, it becomes hard to believe that people are truly at the heart of every action. The strategy often felt unclear and constantly changing, and regular layoffs made the environment feel even more uncertain.
The company has a large IT department, but in my opinion the IT organization does not operate at the level one might expect from a company of this scale. I often had the impression that teams were expected to deliver results “no matter what,” without enough attention being paid to the actual problems, limitations, dependencies, and technical reality underneath. I would not recommend this company to people who want to learn how well-organized IT should work, or to those who are used to high operational and technical standards.
In my view, part of the management team lacks sufficient hands-on IT professional experience, which can be visible in day-to-day operations. There were situations where a lot of focus was placed on polished presentations, reports, and communication, while the actual technical substance, clear execution plan, and understanding of real problems were missing.
On the positive side, the office is quite nice, the salary is reasonable, and payments are made on time. Many people in the office are also genuinely nice and pleasant to work with. Unfortunately, after the recent rounds of layoffs, I feel that some of the most valuable, interesting, and colorful people are no longer with the organisation.
To summarize: it may be a good place if you are looking for a decent office, acceptable salary, and can tolerate corporate uncertainty. However, I would not recommend it to people who expect mature IT practices, a clear strategy, strong technology leadership, and an environment where you can really learn how modern professional IT should be run.
