CGI Company Review

Recommend

Pros

There are several great projects, and plenty of opportunities, so unlike many consulting companies, you are rarely "on the bench" for an extended period of time, and you have several options if you want to move to another project. There are a lot of great people to work with and learn from, and the work/life balance is great. CGI is a great place to begin your consulting career.

Cons

CGI, at least in the Federal sector, has a high turnover rate, and in my view, there are several reasons for this. For one, the company does a very poor job of providing training. Learning as you go has its benefits, but also its limitations. It also is known to pay slightly under market, and raises can be rather paltry, with no bonuses given. The company is notorious for giving promotions without accompanying raises. The health benefits have deteriorated signficantly in the past several years.

Pros

The working conditions are pretty good, as well as their benefits. I liked the group happy hours on most Fridays after work.

Cons

Key managers are part of a good old boy network and cannot be touched. Remote management has it problems and no support. Things might get better now that their VP is gone.

Pros

The flexibility to work from home. The 3% stock match. Casual Dress to work.

Cons

Location sucks in Troy, AL. You get used to shopping at Food World, Piggly Wiggly, and Walmart and the 2-3 good sit down places. The night life is practically non existent and rent is high for the location and options very limit. Health care is not comparable to other tech companies.. I know this because I had could have work at others
