Pros
Exposure to major engineering customers and projects. Easy to gain experience in multiple areas if you are flexible.
Cons
Not specific to Alten, but it is a consultancy and hence is closely dependent on short term customer requirements. These requirements can be stable or unstable depending on the customer or general environment. Working as a consultant requires flexibility and the ability to deal with uncertainty and when customer requirements change you may find yourself having to adapt your skills or even be without work for a while. This is the life of a consultant and this should be taken into account before joining a consultancy.
