Pros

Good place to START a career and to maybe end one. For those who are coming right out of college it's a good place to learn the skills you'll need to start a career in a corporate setting. The people (depending on what team you're on) are also welling to lend a hand to help you learn and understand your work.

Cons

Upward mobility is almost non existent. The Troy Offices are quickly becoming nothing more then a call center with only a few business analysts and Technical works still working there. Pay is FAR bellow market value and management does not seem to care. Management says Work/Life balance is important to them but some jobs require 12+ hour work days for months on end, leaving NO room for work/life balance.

Pros

They dont really think that highly of you, thus you dont get that much work. Simple work, nothing hard, always give you instructions on what to do. Thus, you have even more time to just do whatever you want since nothing is hard. Good benefits for people with families

Cons

no career growth opportunities. From seeing the environment here, this is a place you want to be where you only care about making money and supporting a family. For younger people like myself, be prepared to use 10 year old technology, and others which make you laugh when your manager says there are a lot of career growth opportunities. Salary was low, but after being here for a bit, understandable why. Manager has constantly asked me to stay after work hours to work, has asked me to stay on weekends every now and then, as well as told me to eat as little as possible as time is valuable. With literally barely any work given, why on earth do I need to put in all of those extra hours? When he asked me to come in on the weekend, he told me yeah you'll probably just be sitting on your computer doing nothing always but i still want you to come in. For the love of all that is good, stay away and pray for me that I can find a job soon so I can shove a big fat resignation letter with "I quit" in a font size of 72.

Pros

Everything's routine if you like that type of work. As long as you comply with rules and regulations, work hard, and have a good attitude it's good!!

Cons

If you're looking to move up on a company CGI is not the place. The pay isn't the best.
