Thanks for your review. Innovation is in our DNA, and our myQ technology is bringing access to life through new products and solutions that connect people, places and events. CYA is not a welcomed practice. Rather we aim for delivering results and owning our actions. Teams spend a lot of time working with one another and form close bonds. Throughout the year, there are opportunities to interact with other staff at social events, volunteer outings and activities like the Global Walking Challenge. —CGI ONETEAM

The Perfect Clash of Old School vs New School

Pros

Ownership genuinely cares for its employees.

Cons

We've seen this before: Former CEO came in with all of the right ideas and personnel but the old guard of lifers refused to budge making it difficult to press forward. This time is different. Current CEO has overlooked the cash cow that is the LiftMaster brand and trying to turn company into a tech platform. In both situations, the story remains the same. Engineering and Sales wield too much power. Marketing is non-existent.

Thanks for your review. We are undergoing a business transformation, part of which was born out of advances in our myQ smart technology. However, the transformation is not possible without our trusted LiftMaster and Chamberlain brands. Our smart access technology empowers our customers by connecting them to their homes and businesses via internet-enabled garage door openers, commercial door operators, gate operators and now also smart cameras and locks. Our company’s greatest resource is our people; part of our transformation includes continually improving our culture. We focus on our values and behaviors—acting as ONETEAM instead of siloed functions. It would be great to hear what good ideas you think have not been implemented effectively. —CGI ONETEAM

Pros

Some of the consultants are professional

Cons

- Lack of empathy for those with disabilities and those that are minorities or women - Constantly is firing management and moving engineers between roles to cover up not meeting business requirements - There is a boys club of management that begins drinking at 1pm every day and unless you're apart of their group you are penalized for not being apart of the team - The company offers no benefits or travel compensation. If you work downtown then you will be required to travel to the suburbs on your own dime for required corporate events - There are no bonuses, and the salaries are below market value - There are constant projects that are abandoned - A lack of vision and strategic business decisions - All of management have tenure, and are 45+ year old men - Those new on the team are hazed with alcohol constantly It's absolutely a mess. stay away.
