Probably one of the worst experiences at a company, ever

Pros

At the time I worked in the company the technology and projects were promising, interacting with some other leader tech companies. A good percentage of the engineers were very skilled, smart and fun. The offices were very good and there was a sense of collaboration across teams.

Cons

It was the closest experience to be part of a frat house with spoiled chauvinist guys. I personally experienced unbelievable situations that trigger all sort of alarms in the first few months such as managers openly cursing people on their back, making awful comments about employees and behaving like bullies. There was a closed circle of friends that managed everything and rewarded or punished people based on their own feelings about people. Once I had a small issue with one of them, my career there was over, I was gone from any important project to the point that was almost harassment. They ignored me forever and I was not invited to any important meeting, decision or gathering. The reason IT works in this company is they don't need to deliver anything or make money at all, the parent company pays for the huge expenses and lack of efficiency, a feature I was almost about to complete took 2 years more to be delivered. Some practices were clearly very close to nepotism and favors to friends. I never experienced something like that and I firmly believe I won't ever experience something worst.

Pros

Pros include compensation and benefits, a nice facility, and some great people.

Cons

There was absolutely no work life balance in the finance department at CGI. Employees didnt feel comfortable discussing this issue with management because management was in the same boat. Multiple late nights, all nighters, 3 or 4 times a week were the norm for everyone in the department. No regard for activities outside of work. Coworkers were great down to earth people, but really no time to interact with them.

We appreciate your feedback. In the last few months, the finance team has put in long hours for the organization and we appreciate their dedication to the business; however, we certainly do not expect it to be the normal way of doing business. We will share this review with the team to facilitate a discussion about approaches for a healthy work/life balance for the team, especially considering the current business environment as a result of COVID. Prior to COVID, to allow our hard-working employees the opportunity to relax and socialize, the company organized multiple events to interact with staff at social events, volunteer outings and activities, like the family picnic. Given our social distancing protocols, we will continue to look for creative ways to connect and engage with our team virtually. —CGI ONETEAM
