Pros

Easy to pivot and change projects Its possible to learn a lot and progress rapidly You can work with some really good colleagues You can learn a lot provided you are willing to work hard Many Alten employees get hired by Airbus or can make a lot of money with the experience they have Alten is a very different compay post covid. They were awful during covid and directly after. It can be a great place to build experience and you can get really good in an area if you work hard.

Cons

Low stability on some projects. You can switch between many with very short lifespans (some projects can be only 2-3 months. Some can be multi year projects. Some projects are very unstable and the client can be toxic. Some managers are toxic and liars and will say anything to get more people to join alten. They will apply a lot of pressure to accept projects even if they know you wont be a good fit.

Pros

I have been with the company for several years and have had a very positive experience overall. The company offers strong opportunities for career growth, especially for employees who are proactive, take ownership, and consistently deliver results. Internal mobility and leadership opportunities are available for those looking to advance their careers. Compensation is competitive within the industry, and performance is generally recognized and rewarded. While there is always room for improvement, I feel that the company provides fair compensation and good opportunities to increase earnings through career progression. Management is supportive and accessible. As with any growing organization, I have found leadership to be committed to employee development and business success. There is a strong entrepreneurial culture that encourages initiative and accountability. One of the biggest strengths of the company is the variety of projects and clients. Employees have the opportunity to work across different industries, technologies, and business environments, which helps accelerate professional development and keeps the work interesting. Pros: * Strong career development opportunities * Diverse and challenging projects * Supportive and entrepreneurial culture * Exposure to a wide range of industries and clients Overall, I would recommend this company to professionals looking for growth, responsibility, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

Cons

Fast-paced environment that requires adaptability High expectations for performance and ownership

Pros

4+ years as a Business Manager at Alten, starting in Paris and now based in California and I have zero regrets. The career growth is real. You're given autonomy, your efforts are recognized, and the opportunities follow if you put in the work. The company has the network and the scale to open doors that others can't. Highly recommend for anyone ambitious and looking to build something long-term.

Cons

Fast-paced environment, not for everyone
