      A company always talking about developing their own market but never taking ownership

      Pros

      Vacation period of 4 weeks was very good. Plus additional week between Christmas & New Year where office closes down. Compensation generally quite good.

      Cons

      Pension plan and Medical support plan limited and constrained. Costly for a full benefits medical package. Costs of 20% of all claims still remain with employee. High cost overheads - many contractors - producing high resource costs Centralised decision making within France - outlying subsidiaries have very limited intervention in decision making unless is it towards their own geogrphaic region of responsibility Commercial team aloof and not willing to co-operate across teams

      Pros

      As working with 29 units worldwide under function of industry excellence and quality, my team was great. I worked in La Defense - the HQ of Alstom Grid, very international and open-minded working enviroment. It also provides different employeement benefits such as trainings, ect.

      Cons

      I found the company lack of change and dynamism, repeat same process and same working content for years. No optimization/change in the customer satisfaction surveys and indicators which have been lasting for years and maybe are no longer suitable to the business

      Pros

      Lots of challenges - technical and business. Personally rewarding

      Cons

      Extremely hierarchical/ patriarchal culture, local management is very dependent on orders from parent company in France. Lack of training, no walk the talk especially on work life balance.
