      Senior pay seems only for management

      Senior consultant

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible when required, Compensation is good. A lot of the people I work with are great. They are from all over the high tech community in Ottawa, and the skills some of these people are incredible.

      Cons

      Pay is lower than other opportunities for some skills. They lock you in to one project, even if you wish to move to others. They don't utilize the skills they have in their employees, many are wasted on trivial matters. They ignore some of the ideas and concepts of these skilled people because the upper managers dont want to appear less skilled.

      Great entry point into the job market

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Exposure to many different software systems. You will get exposure to both UNIX,SQL server, Windows server. Since most of the work is project driven, there is time to move onto other projects which gives you a fresh perspective. You will have the chance to travel the country and learn why different organizations operate. You will get to know their business process. This knowledge can be passed onto to other projects and help define their way of doing business.

      Cons

      Every group does not communicate with each other. CGI is comprised of many groups. Within these groups, you focus on a particular product. This leads to no communication between groups.

      Fun but you'll have to fight to get a decent salary and respect...

      Pros

      Friendly co-workers. Good salary if it was negociated at hiring time. Good benefits.

      Cons

      low salaries nobody really cares about your career development A lot of benefits we had in the late 90`s were mostly removed If you work at the main CGI building, it's a pain to work in the East end (Blair Place)
