CGI Reviews

Cons

For me was fine, no cons.

Cons

Too much work, pager ring all the time.

Cons

Huge size means some cumbersome processes, (like remote access)
Your ability to work with varied customers is often vital
Company vision is rarely communicated to employees.

Cons

Only one - organic growth very low due lack to senior management push earlier

Cons

I was in the office at Markham, Ontario in the financial services division.

in the 16 months that I was there I had 5 bosses change.
the place is literally a revolving door, every 4 to 6 months there was a round of layoffs and people were always scared, people who avoided the knife had no loyalty to the place because they knew they are dispensable.
way too much leg pulling. I have NEVER seen this much politics at any other place i have worked at.
extremely pressure: every two months of work, i had one month of over time accumulated.
no support: I was doing the job of a senior manager with the title of a team lead, commanding 30 people in total. With any issue in which i needed help from above, i would be left alone to deal with it.

In the team in india women were paid less than the men, even when they performed better. I raised this to my boss and he just shrugged "this happens sometimes in business" is what he said and "we cannot control what the indian division pays their employees" (which may be true, but the indifference was heartbreaking)

 only join this place if you have no other option. and leave as soon as you can or they will just end up letting you go.

Cons

Maniacal focus on metrics sometimes at the expense of people.

Cons

Local management needs to be more professional

Cons

Older processes and policies (dress code for example). Moderate benefits, below average compensation. Poor company structure separating infrastructure and application at very high levels. Slow to adapt and move.

Cons

Achieving work-life balance can be tough, internal politics

Cons

People change fast. Half of the colleagues in the office changed within one year.
