Favouritism is very famous in Alstom India. Most of the Promotions and Hikes are only fixed for those employees. Due to this attraction rate is very high among talented / key resources and work culture is poor. Most of the people managers are not belongs to core technical background so no technical help you will get from them.

Good if you are looking for no fire kind of job where you get salary on time

Dislikes

1. People looking for genuine growth with managers support and guidance don't join here. Managers attitude is "you will be okay until you work according to them else Don't know you at all they will put you under the bus anytime". 2. Performance Review is namesake to show your failure only HR is let down, employee themself do more HR job than HR themself... Complete failure I would say plus should bare with their cold attitude. 3. Even if you are not assigned work neither Manager nor HR is bothered only they will react if you yourself flag but the response would be you are incapable of doing your job and will be transferred to role which is neither matching your profile nor they will discuss with you. 4. Most important if you don't have choice other than joining company always ask for job description in written even get it signed by reporting manager as role what you get is entirely different than your experience ex in case you go to HR on role explanation reply will be "you should even be ready to take printout for your manager" 5. Let down for women employee as they will be sidelined for growth by commenting "You will not be available after working hours" or Will give work exactly at 6 PM or will ask to stay beyond working hours to give some update. If you resist be ready for constant comment in every team meetings by making them feel guilty for giving priority for personal commitment after working hours. Worst is giving comment on taking WFH when kid was sick that too during performance review and will be giving low score even you have worked outside your KPI....Read More

We get encouraged for the new innovations but only you have to do if you told if you are innovative that too after office hours. GETs from big colleges are treated well where as experienced employees are treated badly you won't even get a single good notebook on the day of joining

Dislikes

Higher management is good in communication. But most of the people who are leading the projects so called Slave worker in terms of project management are so egoistic even there communication is so poor,and they do not deserve the leadership qualities but company has made them leaders because they have experience in the same company,they work 14 hours a day and same they expect. They don't have life after office and already mentally exhausted. It's so annoying and toxic, i got sick because I worked morning 9 to night 12 for new days. They work for the headquarters like headquarters are their client leadership doesn't know how to negotiate on ETAs and how to say no....Read More
