Pros
- International organization - Central office locations in London - Benefits are good - private medical insurance/travel insurance etc. - It's good for 1y to gain internal recruitment experience but you will be treated a lot better elsewhere
Cons
- Very low salaries across all business functions for London based roles (makes it hard to recruit new joiners) and retain the ones they have (very high turnover) - Approach to WFH is terrible, they say it's flexible but you will need a good excuse to stay home. Ideally you will work from London 5 days per week. - Long hours (9-6 but you will be expected to work beyond this) - Recruitment is not very inclusive, Alten pride themselves on being a "young" organization so unless we are recruiting for leadership/senior positions most people have to be younger than the MD who's mid 40's. - Age, citizenship and education is a huge factor when it comes to recruiting in Alten UK if you're outside our desired "scope" regardless of your skill set you will not be considered - Part of the bonus is paid to you if you succeed in recruiting particular nationalities - is this even legal?
