Pros

Restaurant tickets Not really a lot. They promise you more advantages they actually offer.

Cons

They hire you without having any mission for you. Then you spend weeks talking to different business managers, trying to find a mission for yourself (what your manager is doing is unknown). They say they help you to find a home in Toulouse, and that they will pay for this service (they subcontract it to another company to avoid called Seed & Moove). Actually, Seed & Moove will do formalities in your name for APL and they will receive the money the French government sends you to help you pay your rent (they were surprised I discovered this). And if Alten has problems, they do fire people in the trial period (they give an impossible mission in a very short period of time and then they say you did not achieve "their standards" of quality).

Pros

Working at this company has been a truly positive experience for me. It’s a place where I’ve been able to learn and develop my skills, and I really appreciate that they invest in my growth by paying for my certifications. I’m also involved in special projects with high added value, which has had a strong impact on my career development. What makes the biggest difference for me is the way they support me as a mom. Having the option to work remotely when needed is extremely important, and it’s something we rarely find elsewhere. I’ve never felt judged for being a mother—quite the opposite. They understand my responsibilities at home while ensuring that the client is always satisfied. This balance means a lot to me, and it makes me feel valued both as an employee and as a person. Overall, I’m truly grateful to be part of a company that invests in my future, trusts me with meaningful work, and respects my personal needs.

Cons

Due to the global economic situation, salary increases and bonuses have been impacted.
