Pros

The organisation in India is growing with the growing needs in Rail transportation. Alstom India won 10 railway projects in the last 1 year including the 3 billion Euro contract with Indian railways (e loco). This winning spree of multiple projects is a big advantage to anyone who would like to contribute to the "Make in India" initiative... The organisation is very young and vibrant.

Cons

Work pressure is high thanks to the growth phase. Policies are age old but likely to get a revision. Brand communication continues to be very poor. Poor diversity in top management. (Improving)

Pros

3-4 week vacations for Europeans with the entire month of August off. Ex-pats in NA still take the month of August off.

Cons

Complete dismantlement of American work ethic and culture. Extremely political and bureaucratic to the point of detriment to the employees and to the business. Aloof and arrogant management that seem to enjoy settling scores, rather than turn profit. Process comes before progress and profit.
