Pros

It’s okay nothing amazing. It’s a job

Cons

Poor management. Rarely gives raises in general, but also does not take into consideration cost of living raises. Also tells employees not to discuss wages (certain states like mine, have protection for employees that they are able to ask). Because we are protected in my state and can discuss wages outside of work/not on working time: we have found they are paying others who just started working there the same or higher wages than those who have been there many years and progressed in their roles/careers. They have benefits but pay a lot for medical and it’s out of state catastrophic benefits so really only helps you if you hit your high deductible or have surgery etc. No retirement 401k match

A company past its prime

Pros

CEO is based in Belgium and is a good leader that genuinely cares about his people and is trying to bring European values like work life balance to the company. It can feel like a family here as the teams are small. They have been a pioneer in remote work and are offering hybrid and remote schedules even more now.

Cons

CTG is an old school company that is struggling to appear as innovative as other IT companies. They have a very unimaginative and reactive approach to product development and Human Resources, and can’t seem to figure out who they want to be. Their benefits and compensation plans are fairly basic compared to similar firms. Their overall HR mentality is very much stuck in their ribbon cutting era. Most staff do not receive regular raises and their starting PTO is your standard two weeks with a painfully slow accrual rate and a low capped amount even after more tenure. You have to “buy” extra vacation and they sell this to employees as a benefit. They do not offer 401K matching and by all indications will not in the foreseeable future. There’s a lot of nepotism since most of the leaders have been with the company for many years. When you work here you will see the same people promoted over and over while most are stuck in the same position for years. And there is absolutely no diversity in their overhead staff. They use “inclusion” as a buzzword but there are few if any BIPOC people in management and zero in senior leadership. Being a fixture in the Buffalo community I expected to see a statement on their social about the tragedy that happened not too far from their HQ, but radio silence. Similar silence on Pride month, and other cultural holidays with the exception of a few generic inclusion posts. The sad reality is that few POC and LGTBQ people are able to achieve meaningful progress in their careers here. I believe their European operations are a bit better at this. And there’s no employee engagement for teams outside of the HQ. Best Place to Work? They may have the badge but not the practices to support this distinction. Hopefully new HR leadership will bring them into 2022.

We appreciate the time you took to provide such thoughtful feedback. We believe that our CEO and leadership team's commitment to practices that strengthen our culture and contribute to achieving Great Place to Work certification year after year perpetuates the family-based culture you experienced. As a GPTW company, we are committed to continuously seeking and reviewing the input of our employees across the organization from many sources to ensure we receive the most accurate representation –GPTW surveys, internal surveys, Glassdoor reviews, exit and new hire surveys, and more. Employee insight is critical in CTG's innovation and growth as an employer and provider of leading digital IT services and solutions. It, therefore, is of the highest importance to our HR and leadership teams. Our HR teams use the insight gained from employee feedback to develop programs that support our people-focused culture and enact programs in our employees' best interest. We strategically choose program initiatives and invest in those that benefit our employees while balancing our financial responsibility to our shareholders. For example, we know that the cost of benefits for our employees is of the utmost importance, so our leadership team made financial decisions that allowed CTG to reduce employee benefit costs significantly three years in a row – 2020, 2021, and 2022. At CTG, our first core value is respect. That core value is applied in many ways, not the least in addressing the areas of diversity and equal opportunity. We are sorry that you found this an area to be lacking. We have found, as recently as our most recent GPTW survey, that most of our employees disagree. Statements related to fair and equitable treatment of employees regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender, and age received the highest ratings. Finally, you noted a few instances where you felt we remained silent. We were neither silent nor unengaged in either instance. In May of 2022, we chose to keep our communication and donation efforts focused where we felt that they were most needed and appropriate – internally, on our employees and in our headquarters community. We also kicked off our annual Pride month recognizations across our global social media channels on June 1. We encourage you to visit any of our social media channels this month. In summary, 'CTG's Core Values and culture are built upon respect, support, and open, two-way communication. We are sorry that you have had a different experience. Your CTG HR and leadership team would welcome the opportunity to talk through these or any other issues you have.

Thank you for taking the time to submit your feedback! We understand the value many employees place on the ability to work from home, and are happy to hear you are enjoying that benefit, along with many of the other benefits we offer. Since we serve a variety of clients, the ability to work from home varies, but many of our positions allow for flexibility with fully remote and hybrid work options. We also understand that opportunities for advancement are important, so we are currently enhancing our career development tools. We want employees to be able to clearly express their advancement interests and understand what skills and experience are required. In terms of 401(k), while we currently do not offer a traditional company match, we know how important employer contributions are to our employees. For four consecutive years, CTG has provided lump sum contributions to participating employees’ 401(k) plans. We continue to monitor our ability to provide contributions. Thank you for being a part of our team!

Thank you for submitting your response and your many years of service to CTG! You’re correct that our people make CTG an amazing place to be. CTGers are committed to showing respect for one another, which is a big part of what makes our company so special. They treat others with dignity, kindness and fairness. CTGers practice good listening skills so coworkers feel comfortable voicing ideas and opinions. Our inclusive work environment ensures that employees know their voice matters. In terms of benefits, we hope you heard our recent exciting announcement! On our town hall at the end of September, we announced a significant decrease in our 2022 employee benefit cost. Our leadership takes employee feedback seriously and therefore committed to lowering employee costs for the third year in a row. We hope employees are as excited about this as we are!
