      Mediocrity will be rewarded, so don't even think about going above and beyond...

      Pros

      Theoretically, there are lots of opportunities. But once you start in one are, it's basically impossible to redirect your career.

      Cons

      Regardless of whether you are an average performer or a star, salary and recognition won't change. Once you are good at something, they will only make you do that. No effort on providing employees with career growth opportunities. Employee satisfaction and recognition just does not seem to be a priority.

      Former AMSers

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      CGI Group (CGI) acquired American Management Systems, Inc. (AMS) in May 2004. For approximately 2 years, the United States division was known as CGI-AMS (as a way to continue the brand loyalty of AMS clients). Right before AMS was acquired (at the time, CGI tried to sell it to AMS employees as a "merger" - no one bought that), the morale at AMS was poor. For awhile after the acquisition, the morale among former AMS employees went down. This is pretty standard. Over the years, there has been some improvement in making the former AMS employees feel as if they belong to the company, but for the most part, people still think of themselves as "AMSers". This doesn't seem to get in the way of everyone working together to get the job done.

      Cons

      As with most firms, different people have different experiences. I wouldn't disuade anyone from applying to CGI.

      Pros

      The internal opportunities are very interesting and diversified thanks to the current position of CGI in North America. You can easily travels between offices in US and Canada.

      Cons

      CGI could be more present in Europe and in the emerging countries like China.
