Rio Tinto Alcan – “Not a technology-forward company”

Pros

Flexible work schedule; good company earnings lead to great bonus

Cons

global compensation plan too rigid; no career growth for IT; too many macro buracracies at the global level that are not effective at the local level;

Advice to Senior Management

don't treat full-time employees like consultants; don't appreciate the "do your job, here is your check; see you next week" mentality
