      Pros

      The internal opportunities are very interesting and diversified thanks to the current position of CGI in North America. You can easily travels between offices in US and Canada.

      Cons

      CGI could be more present in Europe and in the emerging countries like China.

      Pros

      Great place to start working in if you plan to work for a consulting company. The company is one of the biggest in north america so you'll get all the advantages of a company of this size like health plans, fitness club for free, etc. Working is also great. The large majority of people at CGI are very competent and motivated persons. As you will work on many projects in your carreer you will deal with many different technology, collegues. It is very pleasant to "change job" every 6 months. It forces you to keep up to date technologicaly and does not let you fall in routine.

      Cons

      Those are the downside of working in a consulting company. The biggest drawback is that between projects you can stay as long as 3 months without been re-affected on a new project. It is a good moment to learn about new technologies but that is pretty hard for ego since you may feel "unnecessary" for a couple of weeks. Of course you are still paid in the meanwhile ! The other issue is that you often change projects, so it is harder to develop social relations with your collegues, as teams change all the time, but nothing is impossible !

      Pros

      If you are driven and motivated to succeed CGI will provide you with ample opportunities to shine and succeed. CGI does not hire employee it hires members (owners) that get to partake in all the benefits the company has to offer - profit sharing, stock options and a stock purchase plan. CGI's Senior Management are very passionate about the company and they have a clear vision and mission for CGI – it is very inspiring to hear them speak about CGI’s vision and mission. CGI has some great Managers that constantly provide recognition and feedback for a job well done – unfortunately there are those Managers that seem to forget to provide that words of recognition and thanks for a job well done do not cost them or the company anything.

      Cons

      It's a great company with many talented people yet they are unable to command the high per diem rates that companies such as IBM, EDS and Accenture enjoy.
