Career Path

Your professional development is important to us, so we have laid out a career plan to help you progress towards your goals and objectives.

Relocation Support

We offer a relocation budget and full coverage of flights to Frankfurt for you and your family.

You can expect extensive assistance with visa, work permits, and communication with authorities during the relocation process, as well as help settling into Germany (e.g. setting up appointments with banks, government agencies, schools, landlords, finding apartments etc.).

Company Apartment

To help you get settled, we provide you with a fully furnished company apartment during your first three months in Frankfurt.

A healthy body is a healthy mind. We offer a membership at the premium gym chain Fitness First in Germany. Work out, join group fitness classes, or relax in the wellness facilities.

State-of-the-art Office

We’ve recently moved into a brand-new, modern office located in the heart of Frankfurt. Our new workspace is designed to inspire creativity and collaboration, with open areas, quiet zones, and top-tier facilities — all just steps away from public transport, restaurants, bars and cultural hotspots.

Hybrid Working
We believe in the value of in-person collaboration while also supporting flexibility. Our hybrid working model includes three days per week in the office and the option to work remotely up to two days per week, unless role-specific requirements or business needs require you to be on site.

Equal Opportunity & Inclusion

We’re building a workplace where everyone belongs. We welcome people of all backgrounds and identities and are proud to be a truly global team, with employees from over 42 countries contributing their ideas, cultures, and perspectives every day.

Understanding the local culture will make your stay abroad more enjoyable, and Crytek supports that by offering German language courses for you and your family.

Join us on our exciting company events, including new starter breakfasts, summer and winter parties, our annual trip to Gamescom in Cologne, and many more!

At our Frankfurt office you can enjoy 24 days of vacation per year, and every 2 years you get 1 more (up to a maximum of 28 days). You will also have on average 10 public holidays on top of the days you take off.
