“Can you die from this? Then why aren’t you taking it seriously?”

We all think it could never happen to us. At least, that’s what most of us believe. But when you’re suddenly confronted with cancer, you have to decide what to do: face it head on or bow to it. Our colleague, Ildikó Kátai Perkátai, chose to face the greatest challenge of her life with courage: she was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer.

Listen to our podcast conversation with Ildikó. A story not only about illness, but about bravery, the will to live, and what it truly means to face something that many people are afraid even to name.

Ildikó’s inspiring and captivating story is one of those we are sharing this March, as we celebrate Women’s Month at evosoft.

Corporate-supported health prevention - an investment in our colleagues and in the future

At evosoft, we have always placed strong emphasis on our colleagues’ mental and physical well‑being, supporting all dimensions of health, and highlighting the importance of prevention. Our employees work flexible hours and can tailor their home‑office arrangements to their individual needs, typically spending two days in the office and three days working from home each week.

We also support our employees through a range of benefits and discounts focused mainly on maintaining their health. A dedicated internal working group promotes the company’s modern, inclusive and supportive health prevention programmes. As part of these efforts, they launch initiatives that raise awareness of topics such as healthy nutrition, stress‑management strategies and practices, and the health benefits of regular physical activity.

According to the feedback of both long‑standing and newly joined colleagues, our corporate health insurance package is one of our most highly valued benefits. We provide it to all employees, including those on maternity leave. We also continuously work to create ergonomic work environments, contribute to the cost of eyewear needed for healthy vision, and offer sports‑related options through our flexible benefits package.

We firmly believe that true performance goes hand in hand with the health and balance of our employees. Our corporate health prevention programmes are an investment in our colleagues’ well‑being , the company’s performance and the strength of our community.

The evoHealth working group also strives to highlight role models within the evosoft community: individuals whose personal journeys, experiences and insights inspire others.

One such role model is Ildikó Kátai‑Perkátai, a breast cancer survivor who chooses to speak openly and honestly about her illness. She shares how she faced her diagnosis and reflects on the nearly two‑year journey since then. She also talks about how her family, including her children, experienced this period and the impact it had on them.

Ildikó has inspired the entire evosoft community – and many beyond it – with her story of courage and the will to live. Through her openness, she offers a glimpse of what it truly means to face an experience that many people are afraid even to speak about.
