Pros

The are perfectly clear with what you get and how things work.

Cons

Low salary and small raises, regardless of your results. The company will always prioratize its interests which are often the opposite of the employees interests. There is no perspective of growth unless you want to became what they call a business manager, which is a fancy name for a recruiter (yes, you move from an engineering role to a recruiter?!?!).

Thank you for your review. As a company, receiving feedback is a priority in order to ensure a long lasting development and we will continue to find ways to improve. As in most organisations, at Alten we believe in progression based on merit. We expect our employees to strive towards excellence and deliver to high standards first, to be eligible to rewards such as bonuses or promotions. The targets are ambitious, achievable, and communicated in the most transparent manner from the very first step of the recruitment process. Developing and retaining our talents is one of our top priorities, this is why we offer the opportunity to our employees to develop throughout one of our several career paths, which cover: Expertise, Management, Business and Support Functions. Becoming a Business Manager is thus not the only way to progress in the organisation. Recruiting their teams of engineers is one of the many responsibilities Business Managers have, which also include commercial activities, managing a team, handling bidding processes, etc. This wide range of possibilities enables our employees to benefit from a bespoke career plan that is built together with their manager. Progression along these paths is supported through training and development. We see retribution as something global, not limited to base salary. Alten offers 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. Thank you again for sharing your feedback and please rest assured we will keep striving towards ensuring we offer the best workplace to our employees.

Thank you for you review. We value all feedbacks we receive in order to continuously improve our employee experience and our processes. Providing an appropriate answer to this review will prove challenging, as it is very brief and context is somehow lacking. I would however like to highlight the fact that at Alten, we choose the long-term approach with our employees, hence mostly offering permanent contracts and ensuring maximum level of job security. If you'd like to share more details about your experience, feel free to email me at: laetitia.galy@alten.com Thank you again for your feedback, please be sure that we are committed to continuously improving here at ALTEN LTD.

Pros

It's just a company to start your professional career and then jump to a proper job.

Cons

-High rotation of all staff -Low salary -Recruiters are the at the bottom of the company. Job is not valued at all. -You don't exist, you are just your KPI's and a number. -The economic variable they give you, is suitable to be taken out of your salary if they consider you behaved bad. -Dull work and environment. -Bad leadership.
