OK, but the work gets stale in a hurry

Pros

Competitive pay and benefits, relatively low stress for lower end employees. A fine place to work if you enjoy working on the same project or product indefinitely.

Cons

Top-down management style, extremely poor collaboration between departments and employees, and continuing education is completely neglected, something I find unacceptable in a technology company.

It's not what it used to be!

Pros

The colleagues are competent and hard-working! The company's upper-most leadership in Canada seem to really care about the employees. The benefits are good.

Cons

The local management is not attuned to the employees. Employees are not valued for their experience and are treated as indispensable.

Pros

CGI Group has an abundance of very bright, collaborative, individuals who all pull their weight toward keeping clients pleased with deliverables and overall CGI performance. Benefits, especially vacations and leave, are very competitive.

Cons

CGI Group is essentially a grouping of independent business units, which puts the primary focus on hitting each unit's P&L goal and discourages any cooperation that threatens that goal. As a result, the CGI business model suffers from a lack of enterprise-wide investments in technology solutions and thought leadership. The competitiveness of the business model has eroded significantly over the past 3 years and, correspondingly, so have professional and career opportunities within the company.
