https://www.qt.io/faq/what-are-the-licensing-options-for-qtThe general Qt toolkit, consisting of Qt Essential code libraries, the Qt add-on APIs, and the Qt Creator IDE are available dual-licensed for commercial and GPL licenses
Though quite why you're honouring your choice of IDE as Creator when you don't use Qt framework at all I am not sure :)

Probably because it's the best C++ IDE available ;)

can I use QtCreator for free at work if I use it with pure C++ and cmake? Is it GPL?
Yes you can. GPL does not matter for tools (GCC for example is also GPL). Only if you change QtCreator and distribute that changed version you have to release your changes also as GPL.
