Pros

Not a hiring firing bank, and has good corporate values. The hours and reasonable 8-9 and the people are very nice.

Cons

lack of career development and petty internal politics. For some employees the work is boring and the pay is low. The current period is seeing good people leave because of middle management bad decisions and then replaced with contractors.

Pros

Work-life balance Quality people: well-educated, knowledgeable, well-balanced, with a reasonable broad range of interests. French elegance Very good place to build strong technical skills Excellent canteen

Cons

Lack of ambition: being number 1 in France and OK in Europe is good enough The "Louis XIV syndrome": important decisions are all taken in Paris To progress beyond the level of Director, you have to mandatorily become active in French office politics
