> Amadeus is today the biggest company in Sophia Antipolis with 5000 employees from and consultants from around the world, working in R&D, as well as marketing and support.
Roughly 30-40% of the workforce were consultants, so you can make the numbers. It's the wrong time if you wanted to look for a job in the area, estimates show there are about 1500 engineers without a mission or job, aggregated from all companies in Sophia.
The fact that Air France has a site there too helped drive up the numbers, a senior manager I know is working 1 day per week till the end of the year, so you can imagine what happened below him.
