Nikdy jsme se nezastavili na místě

Surfing the waves of change

At ORBIT, we’ve always been quick to identify and jump onto the latest new technological opportunities and trends with a demonstrated ability to rapidly achieve proficiency and gain mastery in a fast-moving environment. In the spring of 2021, we celebrated 30 years of achieving outstanding results for our clients as a leader in the information technology space. Today, we concentrate primarily on cloud technologies and their adoption, and thanks to that focus, we’ve become a sought-after partner for large multinational organizations, banks, and other prestigious companies with an excellent reputation, an elite team of experts, our own proprietary methodologies, and many years of experience.

We are proud of the strong team that we’ve built here at ORBIT and proud that so many have shared the journey with us for so long. When both the company and the team are aligned in the spirit of innovation and value the ongoing search for new and interesting projects to work on, two decades can fly by in no time at all!

Rosteme! Udržitelně, s pokorou k ORBITU

Jednou z výrazných charakteristik ORBITu byla dlouho naše velikost. Malá firma, kde se všichni znají a vejdou do jedné vily. Považovali jsme to za naší výhodu a jak jsme rostli zjistili jsme že rodinná atmosféra není daná velikostí, ale tím, jak spolu fungujeme už 25 let. Malá firma už nejsme. Dnes je nás 90 a plánujeme růst dál. S tím logicky přicházejí i změny, na které se musíme adaptovat. Snažíme se to dělat chytře a postupně, tak abychom novým kolegům a kolegyním dokázali předat naše know-how a DNA. Někde musíme přidat proces, někde jiný proces upravit a změnit, ale děláme to stále citlivě a s tím, že chceme zachovat kvalitu naší služby pro zákazníky a osobní přístup, který dlouhodobě oceňují. Věnujeme péči zachování naší DNA postavené na svobodě a dobrých vztazích.

Excelence & Profesionalita 

Excellence and professionalism above all

The difference between being a provider and being a partner rests in our empathetic outlook to both the work we undertake for our clients and the way we treat one another within the company. Earning trust and using a collaborative approach are key in both domains, and our clients understand that, while it’s great to have experts who can perform at a high level, it’s also important to work with human beings who take pride in their work. 

We value the passing of experience and know-how from the older to the younger generation within the company as a way of building a strong culture that can continue to maintain the level of excellence within the market that ORBIT has become known for.

We Help Our Clients Navigate Change

Naší prioritou je vždy přidaná hodnota 

And our priority is always to add value

With every project, our goal is to identify the potential areas for change, chart a course, and guide you every step of the way. In order to deliver on this promise, we bring together a team of confident, assertive people who care as much about the work as you do.

We pride ourselves on attracting multi-talented experts – business-minded IT developers and IT-fluent businesspeople who are capable of communicating and working with stakeholders across all domains and levels of the enterprise. Our priority is always to add and maximise the value we can provide our clients, and every ORBIT consultant is focused on ensuring accuracy and excellence in everything we do to keep our clients satisfied.

We’re all smiles, we enjoy our work, and we’re ambitious. We’re curious and always looking to learn – so definitely not the sort of person you’ll find in the corporate world. Instead, we're creative people actively searching for new projects and challenges to educate ourselves.

Lenka Lipová, Senior Compliance Consultant

Everyone here is on the same level. We have real cooperation, not this “us versus them” environment with all the usual finger-pointing. The company still has the feel of a small family-run business. You see and know every member of the team, and everyone knows they can rely on one another.

Leo Štěpán, IT ředitel

Svoboda je ve spolupráci

Osobnost všude, kam se podíváš 

Personality everywhere you look

ORBIT is a company made up of remarkable individuals – excellent professionals who are leaders in their respective fields and enjoy working together. We encourage everyone to be honest and candid, not only with their colleagues, but also in their dealings with clients. If you’ve got innovative ideas and you’re looking to be heard, ORBIT might be the place for you. We're a small company, thus the cooperation, trust, and mutual support are key values, and our guiding principle is to collaborate with clients to do great work that cultivates trust and to help each and every employee be the best versions of themselves in the process.

Ctíme svobodu a odpovědnost

Balancing freedom with responsibility

One of our colleagues once said that it’s probably easier to manage a team of 50 in another company than it is to manage yourself at ORBIT, and most of our senior employees who’ve managed teams would probably agree. Here, we don’t believe in micro-management but rather self-management. We assume that everyone we hire at the senior level already understands this intuitively, and we only hire junior consultants who we feel are on the path toward learning that lesson and becoming independent quickly.

We manage ORBIT through consensus. Instead of a single executive at the top, every important decision is made by three people who are accountable for ORBIT’s success and outcomes. The process of finding agreement can sometimes be lengthy and difficult, but every decision we make is firm and long-lasting and reflects the views of the entire company.

It’s very simple – the opportunities here are whatever you decide to make of them. And what you make of them is really in your own hands. ORBIT will never put a ceiling on what you can achieve.

Our Prague headquarters are located in beautiful offices in a small villa near a park just a short distance from BB Centrum Brumlovka.

Naplňujeme naše globální vize

Jsme ve Vídni 

Jsme ve Vídní

We've always loved new and big challenges. And we've always had global ambitions. We have worked for the largest multinationals in various European countries for a long time. In 2022, we've decided to take our ambitions even further. We opened our first international office in Vienna. This is also a step for us to move even further towards our customers in Western Europe. ORBIT has a long-standing excellent reputation with its customers. With an office in a prime location in Vienna, we've gained a bit more prestige and some of the big players are starting to take us more seriously. We already have active paying customers, six developers and our ambition is to be on a par with ORBIT in the Czech Republic within three years. And at the same time keep setting up smaller cloud boutique consultancies. Because, that's what's behind our success.

Vychováváme úspěšné juniory 

We raise successful juniors

Our unique advantage is our carefully selected team of experts. Clients know that when they call ORBIT for a job, they will always get professional solutions that are the best in the market. And while we have employees who have been with us over ten and even twenty years, we’re always looking to provide opportunities to young, ambitious people who have the energy to take on new projects.

Cooperation is essential at ORBIT. Of course, that means working together on client projects, but it also extends to the mentorship and instruction we provide for new co-workers to help them gain confidence and learn to work autonomously. Our approach enables them to rapidly develop the skills and experience needed to tackle major projects independently. ORBIT’s success isn’t so much the result of effective top-down leadership, but rather a consequence of the combined efforts of every member of the team contributing to the company’s advancement, regardless of whether they are fresh out of school or have decades of experience.

To cooperate and aim for the best result for the customer – this has always been the goal at ORBIT, and it’s shared by our clients. There is a much higher level of personalized service and care for the client. It's part of ORBIT’s DNA.

Lukáš Klášterský, Ředitel ORBITu

Myslím, že potřebujeme jak extrémně zkušené seniorní osobnosti, tak ty, kteří mají chuť se takovými zkušenými experty stát. Když to zafungovalo u mě, může to zafungovat i u jiných.

Lukáš Klášterský, ředitel ORBITu

Vojtěch Michálek

ORBIT má za sebou výrazný růst, jak se firma proměnila?

Některé věci se určitě změnily, některé ne a oboje beru pozitivně. To, co bychom si rádi zachovali nezměněné, je naše DNA, kterou dlouhodobě oceňují i naši zákazníci. Konkrétněji je to naše schopnost dotahovat projekty – do čeho se pustíme, to dokončíme. A taky, že jsme fajn parta lidí, se kterými se znají osobně a vědí, co od nás očekávat.

Změnil se nám trochu charakter projektů. Dříve málo kdy byla na projektu kooperace jednotlivých lidí, byl to spíš individuální výsledek u klientů. I teď máme sadu projektů, kde to pořád takto funguje. S technologií cloudu a propojování oblastí je naše delivery k zákazníkům výrazně víc týmové. Je běžné, aby na projektu dělalo dva až víc lidí a na větším projektu jich klidně dělá i deset, a to je velká změna ve stylu práce.

Myslím, že náš růst byl taková postupná evoluce. Chtěli jsme to udělat citlivě i s ohledem na lidi, kteří jsou u nás dlouho, mají své zaběhnuté zvyky. Poslední 3-4 roky jsme se snažili definovat interní produktizace, abychom zajistili opakovatelnost, a to přispívá k týmové spolupráci. Každý nově příchozí má nějakou kostru, o kterou se může opřít. Z naší strany to byla nenásilná aktivita, která nám teď pomáhá v dalším růstu a větší efektivitě. Když děláme nový projekt a máme hotovou a predpřipravenou kostru, energie lidí může směrovat k tomu, jak dané řešení adaptovat u konkrétního klienta.

Na jakých principech v ORBITu fungujete? 

Napadají mě dva hlavní – focus a disciplína. Možná nezní nejlépe, ale v této fází vývoje je potřebujeme nejvíc. Potřebujeme se primárně soustředit na věci, které dlouhodobě cíleně chceme. Stávalo se nám, že jsme se dostali do projektů, které zněly zajímavě, ale dlouhodobě vybočovali z našeho ideálního stavu. Teď máme definované cílové projekty a na ty budeme směrovat náš focus. 

Disciplína znamená, že v tom množství lidí je důležité dodržovat určité principy. Pro někoho to může znít negativně. Pro nás je disciplína o spolupráci. Musím brát v potaz, že můj vstup ovlivňuje ostatní a naopak, pokud chci dodat kvalitní výstup práce, potřebuji vstupy od ostatních a musím se s nimi umět správně domluvit. 

Tyto dva principy jsme si definovali navíc k těm, které máme. Vždy chceme dávat našim zákazníkům inspirativní řešení, které je praktické.

Proč by se k vám lidi měli přidat?

Máme velmi zajímavé projekty. Nastoupili jsme na cestu cloudu a mix projektů je tady poměrně rozmanitý. Za druhé, zakládáme si na tom, že jsme tým fajn lidí, i přesto, že už nejsme malá firma, můžeme nabídnout pohodovou atmosféru a přístup. Třetí věc je prostor pro další rozvoj a seberealizaci. ORBIT byl vždy charakteristický tím, že neděláme jen konkrétní projekty. My je často musíme pro zákazníka vymyslet a v tom je značná seberealizace. 

ORBIT is an amazing company full of terribly creative smart people who are very inspiring in how much they enjoy solving problems, how deeply they are able to dive into them because that is their passion. I enjoy being a part of that and watching that team at work.

Ondřej Moudrý, Chief Commercial Officer

Everyone has to work to pay the bills, but it was important to me that it would be fun too.

Moderní, flexibilní způsob spolupráce

A modern, flexible way to collaborate

Even in supporting roles, we need people who are able to work within a timeframe and can be accountable for their output. As we’re frequently on the road as consultants, sales personnel, and delivery experts, we spend most of our time with customers, and so we rely on our colleagues to work independently and complete their work at a high level of quality. It’s just assumed by everyone in the company. If you’re used to the corporate environment, making decisions by committee, and the typical conservative mode of working, you won’t fit in at ORBIT. But on the other hand, if you want to work with a modern and flexible team of high-performing individuals, then we’ll be delighted to have you.
