Pros

Lots and Lots of Overtime - excellent experience for anyone without any qualifications - they are very supportive of anybody they manage to hire.

Cons

No advancement (or very little) - Lower than Industry Average pay, very little kudos for jobs well done. People cutting corners, no synergy at all among different depts.

Pros

Great work and home balance. Generally, co-workers are intelligent and very friendly. There a lot of good managers who have great management styles. CGI structures its groups in a flat manner; I could talk with the director of my group with no problem. CGI sponsors a social club at each of our locations.

Cons

A very lax culture that many abuse. Some employees showed up at 11am and left at 3pm. Doesn't matter if you try to stand out many have a "whatever" attitude. CGI hires bodies instead of skilled workers. A co-worker of mine was hired as programmer analyst and had no knowledge of any programming languages, not even SQL!

Pros

Co-workers, clients, projects, professional development, 360 view, great interaction with senior consultants, great capability to learn from them

Cons

hardly any contact with co workers beside the ones in the project, senior management is somewhat above the others and doesnt realize what is going on on the ground.
