Pros

The work from home benefit is great but that largely depends on your project.

Cons

Being promoted from Consultant to Senior Consultant you would think you would receive a raise but you don't. I was promoted in the spring cycle but my salary raises are on the winter cycle, so I was not surprised to not get anything immediately. So I patiently waited six months hoping I would get an adjustment in salary and once that day came I got the worst raise I have received at CGI even smaller than my first year at the company. So advice to job seekers, make sure you ring them for everything up front as they will not give it to you later.

Pros

Some friendly colleagues, depending on your business unit.

Cons

Never have I even seen a more outdated, incompetent marketing and communications department. Outdated equipment, employees who have been around forever and set in their ways, and workflow processes that inhibit creativity, impact-making strategies, and unable to see the big picture. Heck, this company doesn't even have business personas as part of its marketing strategy! Yikes! It's no wonder there are few young employees. CGI is filled with old-timers who have outdated best practices and are not receptive to using 21st century marketing and communications strategies. From lacking anything in the cloud (please note, this is an IT FIRM! to having to justify the ability to do any type of marketing in real time because CGI outsourced much of its employees to cheaper countries that are in several time zones, it's a miracle this company is able to function. You must be desperate to work here, or lazy if you choose to stay for more than a couple of years.
