ALTEN Associate Design Engineer reviews

Thank you for you review. We are striving to create a collaborative and inspiring environment for all our employees so I am sorry to hear about your feedback. As a growing company, receiving feedback is a priority in order to ensure a long lasting development and we will continue to find ways to improve. However, I wanted to address a couple of your specific concerns here. Career development is at the core of the ALTEN model and is managed thoroughly by dedicated Career Managers ensuring the continuity of the development of each consultant. This Career Management scheme is materialised by an Integration Meeting after the start of each engineer, and then by an individual quarterly follow-up in order to ensure both your career and your project are going in the right direction. Each year is wrapped-up by a formal Annual Appraisal during which numerous topics are tackled such Skills Development, Salary, Career Progression, Training... Developing and retaining our talents is one of our top priorities, this is why we offer the opportunity to our employees to develop throughout one our several of our career paths, which cover: Expertise, Management, Business and Support Functions. This wide range of possibilities enables our employees to benefit from a bespoke career plan, which is created together with their manager. Progression is supported through training and development programs. To address your point about “making your way up”, at Alten everything is performance driven. We expect our engineers to strive towards excellence and deliver to high standards first, to be eligible to rewards such as bonuses or promotions. Talking to hundreds of engineers and customers every month enables us to have an accurate vision and understanding of the market. Alten is continuously ensuring a relevant alignment between our salary policy and the UK market. This alignment is performed through the continuous collaboration of our Recruitment and HR teams. We have many customer sites within the UK with a vast amount of exciting projects. Throughout your career, managers will present potential project opportunities to their engineers if they think it is a good fit or if the existing project is ending. Managers will take into consideration any concerns the engineer might have, i.e. relocating to a different part of the UK. ALTEN provides support to any employee who relocates. Thank you for your ongoing contribution and feedback. Please be sure that we are committed to continuously improving career development at ALTEN LTD.
