What works well?
Initial training lasts 3 months, and that's the only advantage, because during those 3 months the salary is ridiculously low, so you have to survive (under stress and with so little income). If you negotiate well, you can get training (in exchange for an obligation to stay x months).
What could be improved?
A miserly salary compared to the industry (especially when you know the rate charged to the customer), authoritarian and paternalistic management, no sense of teamwork. Obligation to stay for 18 months or you have to pay back the compulsory training, which is during the trial period (and therefore traps disappointed people who want to leave). I spent 7 years there by obligation and not by choice, not a good period even though I graduated. But you'll be better off elsewhere.

A company from the last century
What works well?
Good training, friendly colleagues and rigorous work.
What could be improved?
A very old-fashioned company, very rigid at management level. Little transparency in internal communication, leaving room for rumors and disappointments.

Multiple reminders, high motivation: zero responses. No correction, no good omen.

Hello, We're delighted to see that our initial training has helped you in your career transition. Please note that CeRFI covers the full 1.5 months training and salary during this period. The salary is then regularly reviewed during the first 24 months, in a completely transparent way since it is communicated and contractually transcribed at the time of hiring. So there are no surprises. The salary obtained after 24 months is well above the average salary of an IT support manager working for a service company (competition). Best regards The management

11 years of seniority and not about to leave!
What works well?
I am very happy to be part of what I see as a professional adventure, with an employer that listens to its employees and encourages us to take training, and will offer advancement to anyone who is willing and hardworking. I hope to be here for the next 11 years!
