Pros

If you need experience or no other place to work

Cons

As consultant at CGI you do not have influence where/what to work on. As soon as there is no assignment/project available for couple of weeks you can be temporary laid off. While you are temporary laid off you are at CGI mercy for 9 months while you have to live on unemployment insurance income if you want to collect deserved severance after 9 months.

Pros

CGI is a great place to start a career. Hard work doesn't go unnoticed and it is easy to move up the ladder in terms of responsibilities.

Cons

Management is an old boys club. They are not proactive about employee retention. Rather, they won't properly compensate you unless you get an offer from another company. The sales managers throw the technical staff under the bus by selling technologies that no one has experience with. Forget about training.
