Pros

It's a great place to learn then move to another company. You get 3 weeks of vacations when you start. There is some great people working there depending in which team you are. thanks

Cons

bad salaries, constant change in the organization which makes it very difficult for the ressources to get confortable with the business model. Example I have been under more VP then the number of years I have been working there No funding in this company which makes it very hard to get any internal project approved. Overall CGI is a big company with a small business mentality.

Pros

The team for whom I worked was great. One of the best.

Cons

Other teams not so much. Herding cats and you end up taking over on an IMC call for something not even in your sphere. I feel they blacklist employees they RIF. I had a great Director try to get me in with other BUs and nothing. He tried again and again. Others who got RIF'd told me the same. Not good. Also, seems people look over their shoulders looking for the Grim Reaper. Not a good way to be. And the higher ups that are in charge of client retention seem to not be the ones on the firing line, only the consultants that did great work for the clients who decide to leave. HR who is supposed to help get another job within the company are worthless. They want you to do all the work. Also, CGI is so big teams only know what they know. Learning other teams' stuff seems to be frowned upon. How can you move around? This login makes you stuck.
