ALTEN reviews

Thank you for taking the time to write such a thorough review. We value employees feedback as a way to improve our processes and are glad to see your overall experience with us is very positive. At Alten we see retribution as something global, not limited to the base salary. We offer an attractive package to all employees, who get an extensive set of benefits and a bonus system based on performance, on top of their gross salary. We are constantly reviewing market trends to ensure a proper alignment of our policy and the market. We do strive towards excellence and acknowledge our employees engagement towards reaching their ambitious personal targets. We will keep rewarding them for the level of effort they put into their job. Thank you again for your review.

Thank you for you review. We are striving to create a collaborative and inspiring environment for all our employees. As a growing company, receiving feedback is a priority in order to ensure a long lasting development and we will continue to find ways to improve. Let’s address a couple of your specific concerns here. Having been able to almost double our size every year for the last 5 years, you may imagine that this has only been achieved by putting the interests of our clients, candidates and employees first. We have no interest in misleading them. Career development is at the core of the ALTEN model and is managed thoroughly by dedicated Career Managers ensuring the continuity of the development of each consultant. This Career Management scheme is materialized by an Integration Meeting after the start of each engineer (in which objectives are set for the year to come), and then by an individual quarterly follow-up in order to ensure both your career and your project are going in the right direction. Each year is wrapped-up by a formal Annual Appraisal during which numerous topics are tackled such Skills Development, Salary, Career Progression, Training...In preparation for this Annual Appraisal, managers collect objective fact-based feedback from numerous stakeholders (project leaders/directors, clients, account managers etc) in order to ensure the most accurate performance assessment. There is no room for favoritism. We believe that involving our employees in the company’s development brings a lot of value and can be rewarding for them, hence we offer incentives to those who are keen to explore supporting the development of our business. We do not however “force [consultants] to bring more business”. Finally, I would recommend having an open discussion with your Career Manager to address the topics that seem to be frustrating you, they are here to listen to your concerns. Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review. This tells me that although we are striving to ensure we offer the best place to work to our employees, it is important to keep getting better at it.
