CGI reviews

Absence policy is aggressive. On your first day off sick you are sent an email with a ‘return to work form’ including questions such as “Is absence outside of company sickness tolerance levels?”, “Has an Absence Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) been implemented?” and “Is disciplinary action required?”. No TLC whatsoever. Toxic behaviours which destroy trust with employees, e.g. withholding on call allowances payments > six months even though client has been billed. Sending fake phishing emails to "catch employees out". Constant agressive barrage of admin tasks to complete within tight timescales or your performance rating will be slashed even though you've done great in you "day job". CGI Intranet only functions from a company laptop, not via the Portal where most of the links are broken, most notably to their health and well being site "Oxygene".

They bought my previous company and are slowly taking us all off our clients so they can take out client projects and give them to their junior consultants. We are too expensive for them so they are slowly trying to get rid of us. If you are off client for over 8 weeks they will serve you notice and end your contract. I have received very little support from them through this time. - their systems are very old and legacy and you have to log in multiple times to get access - they have very little career framework support - the management system is very confusing - the share scheme is a scam and leads to people not receiving their money - they underpay their consultants by quite a large marge but then won't allow you apply for clients if they don't make more than 30% on you. - they rushed the purchase of our company leading to little satisfaction and a half done job of us moving over leading to stress and anxiety from many employees. - also they gift us useless crap to pretend they care.
