At Critical, your family matters too. That’s why we offer our Titans the opportunity to take extended parental leave. 💛 At one of the most beautiful but often challenging times in our lives, togetherness is a strength. So, we like to do what we can to help too! Did you know that we go above and beyond statutory parental leave and offer extra time off to both new mothers and fathers? After all, family should always come first. Discover more about what life at Critical is like and download our brochure.
This year, we celebrated 5 years of Fikalab, our innovation lab. To mark the milestone, we’ve put together a book telling Fikalab’s story and all the projects that have gone on to change – in their own way - the communities we live in. Happy birthday, Fikalab! Here’s to many more years of breaking the boundaries of our imaginations!
It’s that time of year again! And no, we're not talking about Christmas, but our annual Critical summit – an event that gives us the chance to reflect on the year gone by and look forward to the future. Our guest speaker, Gonçalo Gil Mata, did the honours with an inspiring speech about our purpose, reflecting on who we are and where we see ourselves in our journey through life. The day continued with presentations on what’s been happening in the Critical universe, a recap of all our innovative projects and competitions… and we even found time to announce this year’s Open Call winner! Drumroll, please... Congrats to Remote Health Monitor and its hardworking team from Critical Software.
Keen to know what our teams are up to? Our Phoenix platoon is currently working on projects for a first-tier bank in Portugal, which has begun its process of digital transformation with the constant support of Critical.

Time for another benefit of working at Critical Software! As well as our standard annual leave allowances, you get two extra days after just one year with us. And that’s just the beginning! The longer you work with us, the more annual leave you gain. Studies have shown that dedicating enough time to yourself comes with physical and mental health benefits. It’s proven to decrease stress, gives you a better outlook on life and inspires motivation to achieve your goals. Discover more about what life at Critical is like and download our brochure.
Another year, another Open Call… We were pleased to host the annual contest run by Fikalab, our innovation lab. This year’s edition came to an end on a day full of surprises, creativity and innovation. Like-minded people came together with their shared goal at the front of their minds: making the world a better place. Thanks to everyone who took part! The winner will be announced on Thursday 16th December during our annual Critical Summit, where we come together to look forward to year ahead. Keep your eyes peeled – it's almost time!
Our Reconnect events, bringing people back together in our offices, have gone down a treat. Our latest event saw Titans from our Portuguese offices enjoy a cocktail-making session. What better way to catch up after so many months apart?! You know what they say… Mojito, mo problems!

Time to meet Priyesh Patel, a Project Engineer who started his Critical journey four years ago. 😊 Priyesh works his magic from the Southampton office. Since his internship at Critical, he has been a fan of our people, culture and positive vibes! So much so that, after he finished university, he decided he wanted to remain a Titan! 🤩 Priyesh is now leading a team of 3 (soon to be 4). Hard work pays off, and so does our trust in our talented Titans. Great to have you on board! 💪
