Pros

Good CE (entreprise comittee), no mobility request for people who wants to be sedentary, good health assurance (mutuelle). Nice company if you want to have an occupation and a salary at the end of the month

Cons

Employees DO NOT work for the company: they work for the managers. If you have the chance to find a good manager, there will be progress in your career, but in case your manager needs permanent ego boost, you just need to say his ideas are the best (most of the time it is not the case, they are not scientists) and your career is assured.

Pros

-Hybrid work option and free parking.

Cons

As a contractor, the expectations were extremely high while the benefits, recognition, and job security were significantly lower compared to full-time employees. Contractors were often expected to handle multiple responsibilities due to constant pressure from upper management to reduce headcount, creating a stressful and draining work environment. Despite proving your value through consistent performance over years, contractors still seemed overlooked for growth opportunities. In some cases, employees with only a few months of tenure were promoted into full-time roles, while experienced contractors were passed over. There was also a noticeable amount of workplace politics, and at times the culture did not feel fully inclusive or supportive. Compensation was decent, but overall work-life balance, contractor treatment, and career progression opportunities need major improvement
