Pros

nothing , compared to the companies i worked with after CGI , CGI seems like a master / slave ideology

Cons

forced dress code for no reason , sitting working all day in a suite is just stupid . work places changed not CGI . no perks absolutely nothing compared to the market . and dont get me started with the salary it is a joke . most of managers are Quebecois , very hard to get a place . and when you compare the workers resume to the managers you just know something is wrong . anyway i can go all day about the cons. you have the right to not trust me , I bet you never worked with a real company with real salary and perks to compare . i wish you the best but don't lose time with them , specialty if you are tech support or project manager . good luck.

Pros

Work Life Balance is the only aspect that is good

Cons

Lot of Internal Politics, no new projects, old timers are trying to save their jobs and they have no idea where IT is going. All Legacy technologies, If you are good at politics or buttering you can survive

Pros

Respectable salary ranges, 3% company stock match

Cons

No work life balance, leadership will actively hold back your advancement, half the consultants barely do any work and the rest of their team has to pick up the slack for them, management lies to members. If you want to transfer to another business unit, it won’t happen. Your business unit won’t want to lose your billable hours so they will actively block internal transfers and do everything they can to keep you on your current project including threats and intimidation. When I quit, the VP of my business unit sat me down and berated me for my decision to leave for 30 minutes. Do not work here.
