I don't know enough for a strong opinion either. But I do know two French guys who started a company in France and then moved it out of Europe as soon as they could to get away from what they felt was a stifling business environment.
My former father-in-law also worked for a division of Honeywell that was bought out by nationally-owned Bull (at that time anyway, perhaps it has since been privatized) and he ended up with a very poor opinion of French labor laws based on the people he had to work with and the anability to remove dead weight and unwillingness to risk bringing on new people except under extreme conditions.
I'm guessing though, that since I am generally against government regulation of hiring practices in the United States that I wouldn't be fond of the specific measures they have in France.
