      Existing in India since last 100 years, with complete stagnation plans

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pros: 1. Vast amount of information and knowledge available 2. Very good infrastructure and office environment compared to other engineering companies 3. Opportunities galore if you and your boss, both are from same region, i.e. Bengali Boss-- Bengali employee, you are at right place! 4. Very ethical about business practices, very very high on integrity among management.

      Cons

      Alstom India, one distinguished question strikes to ones mind that this particular entity is existing in India since last 100 years (Recently they celebrated their 100th year in India!), with similar workforce in Delhi area. Every time their leaders come from International offices have one promise for sure, we are expanding in India and we have big plans for India, but unfortunately they just want to exist in India to bid for projects and carry their all operations from abroad, because ALSTOM India has failed to build the trust for carrying out engineering projects alone. Bigger cons are: 1. No matter how much skilled you are, you may fall in a big and endless tunnel of too much technicality with no appreciation and growth path. 2. Not a good company for career starters, good for those who want to do an MBA. 3. If you don't have a godfather make one asap after landing.

      Pros

      Working in the steadily growing power systems management software industry allows me to balance my work and life better than internet software industry. It also is less stressful because things move slower at times and people are more concerned with quality because peoples lives are on the line.

      Cons

      I am used to working in a fast paced internet industry and sometimes want to get things done now, but in this industry there are a lot of steps and processes to control quality and budgets.
