Pros
Can get into working for a large company (not Alten because your a consultant but actually do work for another company) quite quickly. Health insurance is quite good. If you can learn quickly with little help you can learn a lot in a short space of time
Cons
MISLEADING PAY, they will tell you your salary including the expenses making it seem much higher than it is. This is extremely misleading and they hire mostly graduates who don't know that this is NOT NORMAL. Fixed expenses are questionable in its legality. The bussiness managers and senior project leaders are so far disconected from the actual goings on, then make decisions that will negatively impact the team and are suprised when there is push back from the engineers. Non-comptete with questionable legality. Barely any training, and you need to spend lots of time chasing your career manager to actually get you onto the training. False promises for social events for the team, for example the christmas event got cancelled and a make up event promised which has not happened or even been hinted at. Extremely high employee turnover, most people leave after 1-2 years and I can see why. So focussed to recruitment to replace people leaving, that they have forgotten about who tehy already have onboard Below market rate salary. Not very diverse in terms of women employed, the only women I know in Alten have left or are about to They ask you work unpaid overtime to "show you commitement to the company"
