Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Your feedback is extremely valuable in order for us to keep improving our processes. At Alten we see retribution as something global, not limited to 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 the base salary. We are constantly reviewing market trends to ensure a proper alignment of our policy and the market. We constantly encourage our employees to take an active part in their career development, hence I would encourage you to have an open discussion with your career manager if you feel the need to move on to a new project. Thank you again for sharing this feedback and please be assured we keep working hard to offer the best workplace and career opportunities to our employees.

Pros

Insightful display of how not to deal with people

Cons

Micromanagement, lack of experienced colleagues since the good ones leave very quickly, directive, the bad kind of stereotypical French import business model, bodyshopping, quantity over quality. Numbers over people!

Pros

Restaurant tickets Not really a lot. They promise you more advantages they actually offer.

Cons

They hire you without having any mission for you. Then you spend weeks talking to different business managers, trying to find a mission for yourself (what your manager is doing is unknown). They say they help you to find a home in Toulouse, and that they will pay for this service (they subcontract it to another company to avoid called Seed & Moove). Actually, Seed & Moove will do formalities in your name for APL and they will receive the money the French government sends you to help you pay your rent (they were surprised I discovered this). And if Alten has problems, they do fire people in the trial period (they give an impossible mission in a very short period of time and then they say you did not achieve "their standards" of quality).
