      Good place to work for engineers; not so good for commercial managers!

      Pros

      Great products; knowledgeable industry experts; good salary and benefits; significant opportunities to have great international exposure in a true, multinational company that has expansive operations in all corners of the world.

      Cons

      Difficult to climb the company ladder as an American, especially on a commercial or general management track. Company has gradually been transitioning over to French, centralized management from Paris or Switzerland. Sometimes too heavy a short-term and technical focus. Takes forever to make or approve decisions. Too many corporate re-organizations.

      Pros

      Alstom is a well established company with solid customer base. They are diverse in the world of power generation although many of these resources are scattered around the world. They have good benefits and fair compensation. There is a good balance between work and home life.

      Cons

      There are limited advancement opportunities unless you are willing to relocate. For this reason personnel that become managers may not be the best candidate for a position, they may be the only one who applied. Technically, the company is driven from the bottom up, with managers who, both don't know enough, and don't care.
