CGI reviews

Founder has lost touch with the worker bee. There is little to no organic growth, however the companies growth comes from consuming small IT companies around the globe. It's an IT company that doesn't stay utilize updated software for itself. Stock prices are only going up because the employee is buying stock. Worker bees are terminated after 3 weeks if management are unable to negotiate them another project. There's an expectation that when the project ends, the worker bee should want to move to another location for the next project.

They will lie to your face so they can pay you as less as possible. If you're consider going to CGI ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS negotiate higher than what they are offering. You'll be put on understaffed projects. If you know how to do the work then you gain all of the responsibility and blame if you the project fails. The person they keep around somehow and can't do anything will be ignored. They will only train you through cheap or free online tutorials and throw you face first into a project. Hired to be a budget analyst? Well I hope you can learn how to build an app server with JBOSS in three weeks. They won't give you what you need to succeed. Their infrastructure are far below par. You have to wait months for what you need and then get blamed for not doing 3 months of work in 5 days. Look to the person to your left. Now look to the person to your right. One of them will leave CGI in 6 months time because better companies pay more for better talent. One of them, you'll have to pick up the slack for because he or she don't know how to do the work.
