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.

Pros

Some colleagues are nice and supportive

Cons

Condescending and unqualified managers who are self-centred and concerned for their position. Their management strategy is to bring their team members down to feel powerful and superior so that no one will take their place. Disrespectful. No bonus. No work-life balance (late hours). No training offered (not even on Linkedin). No appropriate recruitment tools. Worst working experience in my life. Ask candidates to travel to Brussels for interviews and it takes Alten months to reimburse them (sometimes candidates aren't reimbursed them). Bad interview process: same questions from each manager, managers are often late for their interviews because they're playing games on the PlayStation.
