Pros

Great HR on-boarding process (lots of practice with the high turn over rate) Good medical benefits (will need them if you work there) Good stock purchase/matching program

Cons

Place was utter chaos when I worked there, with extremely high turnover rate. They where not able to retain any type of talent. Anyone with any skills and talent was worked to death and would run out the door after six months. Lots of remote work from home employees that where just collecting pay checks.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
