Pros

Average salary, and benefits. Flexibility

Cons

Worst company culture I have ever seen. Being at staff level, one gets sandwiched between bureaucrat supervisor and upper management.

Pros

People make the company. CGI provides growth opportunities and a willingness to help individuals grow. This is the second "tour of duty" at CGI and the move back has been a positive and worthwhile experience. I'm pleased to have returned to CGI - to an environment that is growing, both as a company and its workforce.

Cons

There are no cons at this time.

Pros

For a while, I had great management, but ultimately, they left for many of the reasons that would ultimately empower me to leave as well.

Cons

The benefits are bad. They get worse when you leave if you think try to employ what was promised while working. Make sure you leave early in the month since coverage will not extend a normal 30 days like competition. Moreover, the annual performance review system promoted and endorsed practically forces averages-bad ratings year 1. To have a 1% increase when inflation is 8.5% is unacceptable, especially if a member’s performance was solid-high. Averaging performance ratings and lowering what would be higher staff ratings is an outdated practice that goes against the member values advertised internally. Even worse, publicly the company will highlight profit, but internal employees know the profit came because of a loss of staff, no matter how many people were hired during the previous quarter. While CGI could be great, their practices will limit progress and cost the organization all of their highest performing team members.
