Pluspunten

Great place to start working in if you plan to work for a consulting company. The company is one of the biggest in north america so you'll get all the advantages of a company of this size like health plans, fitness club for free, etc. Working is also great. The large majority of people at CGI are very competent and motivated persons. As you will work on many projects in your carreer you will deal with many different technology, collegues. It is very pleasant to "change job" every 6 months. It forces you to keep up to date technologicaly and does not let you fall in routine.

Minpunten

Those are the downside of working in a consulting company. The biggest drawback is that between projects you can stay as long as 3 months without been re-affected on a new project. It is a good moment to learn about new technologies but that is pretty hard for ego since you may feel "unnecessary" for a couple of weeks. Of course you are still paid in the meanwhile ! The other issue is that you often change projects, so it is harder to develop social relations with your collegues, as teams change all the time, but nothing is impossible !

Pluspunten

The team for whom I worked was great. One of the best.

Minpunten

Other teams not so much. Herding cats and you end up taking over on an IMC call for something not even in your sphere. I feel they blacklist employees they RIF. I had a great Director try to get me in with other BUs and nothing. He tried again and again. Others who got RIF'd told me the same. Not good. Also, seems people look over their shoulders looking for the Grim Reaper. Not a good way to be. And the higher ups that are in charge of client retention seem to not be the ones on the firing line, only the consultants that did great work for the clients who decide to leave. HR who is supposed to help get another job within the company are worthless. They want you to do all the work. Also, CGI is so big teams only know what they know. Learning other teams' stuff seems to be frowned upon. How can you move around? This login makes you stuck.
