Governance
We have established a governance framework that promotes continuous improvement, ethical decision-making, and transparency across our operations. Our governance structure includes a Compliance Forum, a subset of our leadership team that defines strategies and sets direction for compliance and corporate integrity, as well as a dedicated compliance team responsible for implementing initiatives and monitoring progress.
To ensure awareness and accountability, all employees complete mandatory training on our governance policies as part of onboarding to embed good practices from day one. Moreover, employees must complete annual training on information security & data privacy practices.

Employee wellbeing
We’re committed to the wellbeing of our employees and offer a variety of programs to support their physical and mental health. This includes offering extra weeks of vacation, family days, company retreats, and team activity days. Our comprehensive health care services include mental health care services. We trust our employees to choose where and how to deliver their work successfully. Hybrid work is the norm for all our teams and many of us work also fully remotely.
We believe in fostering a diverse, equal, and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and respected. We’re committed to maintaining a high Inclusion Experience score and providing DEI training to all employees. We’re also determined to maintaining gender pay parity.
Community engagement
We’re actively involved in our community and support initiatives that make a positive impact, including donating end-of-life devices to schools and hosting campaigns offering free credits for students to use our platform – promoting educational and technological advancements. We are also empowering selected non-profit organizations by sponsoring hosting their websites on UpCloud.
We prefer to utilize open-source projects as much as possible in our development work, and regularly sponsor start-up hackathons and host events as a way for us to stay connected with our fellow tech enthusiasts. We also support open-source contributions to UpCloud’s product stack.
