Pros

CGI is a great company and has gone through significant transformation to create a great work environment. Although objectives are important, CGI equally focuses on developing strong behaviors in key areas like Inspirational Leadership, Diversity & Inclusion, Customer Focus, Innovation and Passion! Values are very important to both the Executive Leadership and the Family, we are constantly reminded of how our values and culture drive our strategy and success.

Cons

Like many organizations, there are some leaders who talk the talk but don't walk the walk. It can be challenging to get things done but not impossible, red tape is common but expected. The most glaring problem high performers typically face is you get assigned the most challenging roles and are in the middle of all the problems when you are good at what you do. Finding work/life balance can be challenging if you struggle with organization and time management.

Pros

Chamberlain is a highly variable place to work. Everything depends on what team you are working on. Some teams will have managers who will fight for you and help build you up, others not so much. I have more or less grown up with the company and have seen it go from being owned by a private family to being owned by Blackstone and all between. Every year I ask myself, "is this the year I leave". My answer is usually no, as where else will be better when I am at least in a good position? Summer fridays are pretty great though.

Cons

Yearly reorgs are a constant drag. Some of the most CG-blooded people I have ever known are somehow always the first to get sent to the wood chipper. People flail around and react. There is no forward thought. Just constant reaction to whatever words the executive population utters. We have been 'transforming' for the near decade I have worked here. But what are we even transforming to? All I have seen is us transforming into yet another soulless company. Benefits have been getting crushed. My wonderful and amazing 401k service contribution was ripped away and replaced with a far less beneficial amount. If you aren't on a good team, or have a good manager, your chance for advancement will be near impossible. Constant 'do more with less'
