Pluspunten

Friendly coworkers who will go out of their way to help one another. Lots of great training options available (provided you do it on your own time)

Minpunten

The culture of this company is completely, utterly broken. CGI only cares about one thing: billable hours. Anything else is expected to be done on your own time, including attending mandatory company meetings. Even "mandatory" training is expected to be done outside your 40 hours of billable time to a client. And it doesn't matter if you go weeks and weeks billing more than 40 hours to a client, if you even go under 40 hours of billable time for one single week, they get upset. I'm astonished that they even deign to allow you vacation or sick time without expecting you to make up the hours in the same week. On top of all that, the benefits are mediocre, at best. They only offer a high deductible health plan, the dental is worthless, life insurance is terrible, etc. What's more, they "talk" a LOT about diversity and inclusion on one hand, but on the other hand they eagerly take contracts from governments and businesses that are actively working to oppress and take away the rights of women and minorities without a second's hesitation. Because, for all their talk, they only care about profit margins.

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.
