On Monday, I started a new job with Alstom Power as Human Resource/Payroll Coordinator. Alstom Power is a huge company, with 76,000 employees around the world. My little division is called Turbomachines Group and has 30 people in it right now. Eventually we'll have a few hundred employees who will build the largest turbo machines in the world. Can you imagine that? The construction for the manufacturing is under way and I had the priviledge to tour the grounds. They're converting a previous manufacturing facility with 4 huge bays, taking it down to the "bones" and then rebuilding from the ground up.
As with most new jobs, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with all there is to learn but I'm sure I'll do fine. It is very interesting as many employees have come from Europe and many others from outside Chattanooga. Instead of Southern accents I'm hearing French accents - and even French conversations! It's a big change.
