Best job I've ever had

Pros

Work from home lifestyle. Even though I'm yet to meet my teammates we all have a great working relationship. Amazing benefits, and great support from the team. The job itself can have some stress at times, but for the most part it's awesome.

Cons

The only negative I would say is that there is limited training. They usually tell you this in your interview. You get assigned a "buddy" who will help you learn the job. Fortunately I had an awesome person train me so I have learned my job well.

Pros

Work from home and be totally disconnected from people

Cons

Too many to list but here are a few Lack of actual project work is unbelievable, you end up doing change work which is basically support so forget working on a nice project end to end. No chain of command So called People Managers don't seem to do anything to help manage people or us but don't blame them as the role is new and they probably have not been trained to do the job. Empty promises to do some interesting work and progress career, apparently loads of work but doing crap mostly. Annual reviews are pointless and who wants to hear you "Meet Expectation". Demotivates everyone. Recent changes to Overtime mean you can't survive on the very average salary on offer. No real payrises in 3 years, less than 1%. If you are really desperate for a job go for it.

Pros

Decent pay. Local restaurants around the Deteoit passport office are good.

Cons

Got a very bare minimum amount of training and left to fend for myself in an unfamiliar environment. Not once did I feel like CGI had my back or best interest in terms of helping me succeed in my position. Also not related specifically to the job itself but I had assigned over 50 tasks to complete from HR on my own, most of which I should have had in person assistance with. If you accept a position here be sure you know how to swim because you will be dropped alone in the middle of the ocean.
