Pros

Alten Sophia Antipolis company offers good possibility to evolve fast in terms of career and responsibilities. I had the opportunity to follow several training and to develop my software development skills by having access to different missions in an innovative environment. My entry salary was a bit lower than expected but I've been granted for my good job and reached the level of responsibility I was looking for when I decided to join the company three years ago.

Cons

Need to learn French to broaden your possibilities despite an international environment.

Not a good choice if you are clever

Business Outlook

Pros

HR team is helpful, they are really nice; Provides non-paid trainings, if a training need payment, forget it or become a people likes complain; Alten manager does not follow your mission so much, except you have another offer; Provides check de vacance, C.E.

Cons

If you are a foreigner not French, you probably will be depressed after 6-12 months; Very very very low salary; if you want to ask salary increase, it is more difficult than get a physical+psychological double degree P.H.D diploma; If you are talent, it is not a good choice, if you are not confident with your skills, it is a temporary place; They know you will not leave within 2 years, and after about 1 year of working, after you notice your salary is so low, you still need a log time to find another offer, during these 2 years Alten will not increase your salary; Remember, you are just a number for Alten, not a friend, don't be stupid too much.
