Tout d’abord, j’aimerais vous remercier pour votre démarche. Je crois personnellement qu’il est très important de s’attarder à tous commentaires qui permettront à un employeur d’améliorer son environnement de travail ainsi que les conditions de travail s’y rattachant. En tant que recruteur à temps plein chez Alithya depuis près de 3 ans, je me suis donc permis de vous répondre personnellement. Aucune entreprise n’est parfaite, mais je peux témoigner que plusieurs initiatives sont en cours pour améliorer les différents enjeux et je peux vous assurer qu’Alithya est consciencieuse du bien-être et du support qu’elle apporte à ses employés. C’est pour cette raison que nous avons mis en place des outils tels qu’Officevibe, un outil qui permet de mesurer l’indice de bonheur et d’engagement des employés. Cette plateforme nous permet d’échanger avec l’équipe de gestion hebdomadairement (sous le couvert de l’anonymat ou non, selon votre choix), ce qui permet ultimement à l’entreprise de réagir rapidement et de façon constructive aux différents commentaires qu’elle reçoit. Évidemment, d’autres canaux de communication sont également offerts, tels que des rencontre d’équipe à chaque jour, des rencontres individuelles etc. L’équipe de gestion se rend accessible pour des discussions, du feedback, du support. Pour terminer, je suis sincèrement désolé que votre expérience chez Alithya ne fut pas à la hauteur de ce que vous souhaitiez. Je confirme que la volonté de notre équipe de gestion est d’améliorer le bien-être, les conditions de succès et le support à l’ensemble de l’équipe. Je vous invites à entrer en communication avec moi si vous souhaitez échanger davantage. Patrick Alexandre

Pros

I have to say I’ve worked at another practice and can confirm Alithya found the cheat code to success. Great atmosphere, great leadership, great projects. The work is a grind and late hours are expected but not unnoticed. Alithya cares for Their employees. A lot of support. If you’re stuck on a task, you have a library full of people who can help you. Pretty solid group of people for D365 side. Travel is light. A big thing which is I think is great is the emphasis on AI. Alithya recently invested their efforts in AI to their clients and their employees which has been cool to watch. Can’t really see myself leaving this place to be honest. Be ready to learn and work hard, Rewards will come.

Cons

Sometimes deadlines can be tight and can get people on edge closer to go live but I think that’s normal in this industry. End of the day you’re still a team.

Pros

The name might look okay on a resume for a short stint

Cons

The "Smart-Shoring" Myth: The company uses "smart-shoring" as a deceptive marketing term for gutting the US workforce. They aggressively extract US dollars from clients while refusing to pay for the local talent that actually drives those relationships. By replacing experienced Americans with the cheapest possible offshore labor, they have created a massive communication and quality gap that is embarrassing to defend to clients. ​Broken Internal Hierarchy: The leveling system is essentially a sham. High-level supervisors and managers are routinely misclassified in paths to suppress wages and benefits. Professionals with decades of expertise are left to rot in stagnant development tiers with no path for advancement. It is a deliberate strategy to keep overhead low by ignoring the actual roles people perform. ​Sales-Obsessed and Delivery-Hollow: Alithya is a sales organization that happens to sell services it can no longer reliably deliver. The focus is entirely on the next contract, with zero regard for execution. This approach has been failing for years. You only have to look at the tanking stock price to see the market’s verdict on this leadership. ​Reward for Failure: The culture promotes leaders who have presided over years of business shrinkage. Instead of course-correcting, they continue to purge great workers in favor of a workforce that lacks the language skills and cultural context to support enterprise clients.
