Employee exploitation, poor salary
Pros
- There's flexibility when it comes to remote work. - Partial transport and lunch remuneration. - Company often organizes parties and events.
Cons
- Very poor salaries, way below French average, not to mention IT sector average. - Company mostly hires underpaid, replacable employees for Amadeus. The rotation of employees is very high. - Manager promised language and technical courses, but completely ignored it after I was hired. - When discussing a promotion, managers downplay your technical skills and abilities. Instead they say that you were supposed to promote Alten to gain them additional staff. If you didn't do that, they will give you lesser raise or none at all. - When working at the clients site (Amadeus), Alten employees are treated as inferior. Even ordering a lunch at canteen costs extra, due to a "contractor fee" of a few euro. - There's effectively no chance to develop your career - your manager at Amadeus won't promote you and can only communicate to Alten that you're doing a good job. The manager at Alten shows no interest about the work you're doing in Amadeus, so they won't guide you in any way.
