Pros

The interview process is good they are fast at letting you know whether they want you or not You will work in a high profile company like Rolls-Royce Airbus and other big company which is good for your CV. You get to meet a lot of European people with alten

Cons

Alten manager loves to give a lot of promise but they never keep it. the pay is horrible the salary increase max 1% per year. They take out of your holiday 3/4 days while the customer has more holidays they will never train you even when you need it for the job they don't care about you as you are a money making machine you are treated as a second class citizen by the customer all the jobs you are given by the customer are that the customer doesn't want to spend time on it as they have better things to do. the worst Christmas party, they take you in an okay place you pay all the transport and taxi at the end the food fishes without you have eaten

No support

Pros

No one will ever contact you except to ask for your timesheet, if you like that sort of work environment.

Cons

No one will ever contact you except to ask for your timesheet. There is no support from management, and you are on your own if the contract customer decides to shift blame to you for their internal issues. I was never given any feedback on my performance (I was often not even given an assignment), and nearly all requests for information from my manager or my customer went unanswered. When I gave my resignation, I was told that I had to provide a month of notice. At the end of that month, they began to argue with me that I should not be paid for time during that month - if they did not want to pay me, why ask for a month of notice? I also was instructed to return my computer, but not given any information on who I should send it to or what address to put on the package... but it was still my responsibility to return it, somehow. I eventually moved on to find a real engineering job, where I would be given work to do rather than kept on a shelf as a potential future scapegoat.
