Pros

The pension is good and the maternity benefits are good

Cons

Obsessed with hierarchy, process and vanity metrics. Processes are obscure and arcane and run by hard to use legacy systems. The quality of the staff reflects the fact the focus of the business is on low margin long term managed service. The ethos of the company is aligned to winning big managed service contracts and is poorly aligned to winning and running other delivery or consulting engagements CGI bought BJSS, claimed it was a merger and that they wanted to retain the best of BJSS and then didn't. Repeatedly claims to be focused on it's people in management communication, and yet it isn't - it's almost like they think if they keep saying it that it becomes true

Pros

Access to ChatGPT Enterprise, good pension contributions.

Cons

Poor IT systems, lots of friction added to day to day work, forced people to reapply for existing roles and lengthy job mapping exercise which was marred with poor communication, reduced bonuses for long standing staff, processes applied by HR in favour of the company with no flexibility to recognise or reward those they say they value.
