ALSTOM reviews

Job requires a lot of travel time away from home.

Highly political, siloed organization, constant re-organizations and restructurings with the same incompetent managers being moved around and promoted. Company is a revolving door with a high turnover and loss of good talent. Many, but not all, of the managers behave like elitist arrogant snobs, treating their subordinates and assistants like they're from the lower castes. Some are psychotic, regularly screaming at and abusing people, even throwing things at them as well exhibiting overt racism towards certain nationalities. Mobbing is commonplace in this company as well, and seems to be sanctioned by the corporate culture despite what is written in the company policy. In Switzerland, none of these behaviors mentioned above are illegal, and thus, the victim has no legal recourse whatsoever. Involving HR will accomplish nothing as their sole raison d'être is to protect the management, and they will add insult to injury by blaming the victim.
