Pros

I can't find a single point of it.

Cons

- Basically they are lairs. - During the hunting and hiring process they say every word to gamble you and when you accept the contract they change a lot of points tho rise they gains and avoid you to fight for something better. - For foreign contracts, they say they will help you with all the relocation process, however, they lie again. In this case (mine) is even worst, neither the basic document in new country they do not help or give any information about how to deal with it. And the help with the relocation? Didn't exists. - They put clauses that force you to work for them with abusive charges that you basically can't pay and put you out of the range of the market. (what you do after already change the country?) - In your pay bill, they make a lot of accounting juggling. They will pay you your net, however, your gross that where the taxes are focuses, they will pay the minimum possible. And then, in your IR will be a mess, and you probably will pay for it at some point (as I did). And again, with no backup from Alter. Basically they will pay you with a lot of "vouchers and amenities" to reach the "deal". - They have no interest in keeping you psychologically healthy. They are inhuman and vultures of the worst kind. I've worked with the most capitalist people on this planet (USA) and even they know how to be less disgusting than Alter Solutions was to me and so many others. Run from this company, its a meat grinder.

Pros

Despite the only pro being that they cover the expenses for airplane tickets and the visa process, I still cannot recommend this company.

Cons

I feel compelled to share my deeply disappointing experience working at Alter Solutions Portugal, in the hope of dissuading others from joining this company. My time at Alter Solutions was marred by constant disappointment, a lack of support, and an unexpected termination without any reasonable explanation. To my utter dismay, after just one month of employment, I received an unexpected termination notice without any prior warning or justification. This sudden dismissal left me shocked and perplexed, as I had received no feedback or performance evaluations indicating any issues. Moreover, the lack of support during this challenging time was disheartening and unprofessional. Throughout my tenure at Alter Solutions Portugal, I witnessed a severe lack of professionalism and integrity. The absence of a project assignment and the subsequent lack of guidance made it impossible for me to contribute effectively or showcase my skills, coupled with the sudden termination without support or proper explanation, demonstrated a complete disregard for their employees' well-being and career development. Furthermore, it is important to highlight that Alter Solutions Portugal falsely claimed that finding a project within the country would be easy. This misleading statement created a false sense of security for employees like myself who relocated to Portugal with the expectation of a smooth transition. However, the reality was far from what was promised. The company failed to provide adequate opportunities for project assignments, leaving many employees in a state of uncertainty and with underutilized skills. This deceitful claim further exposes Alter Solutions Portugal's lack of integrity and disregard for the well-being of its employees. Considering my experience, I strongly advise anyone contemplating employment with Alter Solutions Portugal to proceed with caution. The company's lack of transparency, support, and job security make it an unappealing and unstable work environment. It is crucial to thoroughly evaluate your options and seek out reputable companies that prioritize the growth and success of their employees. Please think twice before accepting an opportunity with Alter Solutions Portugal, as my experience was nothing short of a disheartening ordeal. Based on my time with the company, I firmly discourage pursuing an opportunity with them, as it proved to be a distressing experience and a complete waste of my professional skills and aspirations.

Pros

The only positive point is that it is located close to the subway station.

Cons

Highly irresponsible company, I was living in another country when they hired me, they said they would give me all the support for my move to Portugal, but in reality they only did the minimum and only because I insisted a lot, they didn't offer any support for me and still fired me for no reason. Later I found out that they also fired several employees who had just moved, so they took several people out of their countries to move to Portugal and fired them with one month notice and still lied to the employees saying they wouldn't take a person out of the country to fire them, but that's exactly what they did, a terrible company to work for.
