Pros

one of the best reasons to work here is that the company allows flexible work arrangements and is very understanding of work life balance. this is one of the best places for flexible work schedules. getting time off approved has never been a problem the projects are interesting and rewarding. you are able to work on various assignments of interest. this is a place where you can take charge of your own career and always have opportunities to learn. the best part of the job are the people. the people are great to work with, smart, driven, fun. my experience has been positive

Cons

since the merger there has been a definite change in culture and policies and structure. employee morale was on the low side for some time but seems to be picking back up. it is now a global multi national company with tens of thousands of employees so you often feel lost among the crowd. the company is not as flat as it once was and communication between corporate business unit levels to the staff is somewhat lacking. employee turnover is pretty high in comparison to industry standards. business units and projects are fairly separate so it is hard to get much interaction outside of your team.

Pros

Inclusive workplace; great benefits; supportive of personal and professional growth; decent compensation for the area; - especially given the benefits; great leadership; strong culture and values.

Cons

Can be ups and downs if you are in a more volatile area of work which has contracts come and go. AI has increased that volatility across the industry and CGI hasn’t been immune. Individuals experience can vary by manager, but it’s a very good company.
