Pros

Okay place to start up your career or if you just want to get by. Basic benefits but with co pays. Good share purchase plan benefits.

Cons

Chances for advancement is possible but very long... You will have to be extremely patient. Some projects just lag too far behind and you will be stuck if your project is on the lower end. Management wait until problems become very big before reacting... then everyone will be affected. Discrimination based on priority of projects. Advancement and pay obvoiusly becomes unbalanced.

Pros

Location is good; Share purchase plan is good; Flexibility of work; Can work from remote even permanently (if that is of interest)

Cons

Foremost downside? Poor processes, or better, too much process for everything. This company is cumbersome such as those gigantic, messy, nightmarish firms like Bell, HydroQC or alike. I worked for Bell too: CGI is just the same. Such a mess that you will never be able to get it right from the first time. You learn by making mistakes and that is ok because everybody here does. Your manager will understand, or maybe will not because the moment could be tough.
