Pros

Big company, even in slumps don't tend to let people off. Management tends to leave employees alone on their assignments (don't intervein).

Cons

Feels like a religion and a very incestuous place to be, if you're not in the "Gang' you will always be ignored promotions and salary increases. Salary increases are always between 0-5% but usally in the 2-3% corner and doing a good job doesn't change anything. Unless you start looking elsewhere your salary won't go up. Even if you want to change technology, you better be prepared to wait a couple of years (3-5 years). Suck up employees will go far!

Pros

Inclusive workplace; great benefits; supportive of personal and professional growth; decent compensation for the area; - especially given the benefits; great leadership; strong culture and values.

Cons

Can be ups and downs if you are in a more volatile area of work which has contracts come and go. AI has increased that volatility across the industry and CGI hasn’t been immune. Individuals experience can vary by manager, but it’s a very good company.
