Svantaggi
-Health insurance is horrible. CGI makes the excuse that a lot of companies are going to high deductibles and Obamacare is one of the main causes for the changes to our health plans. This is nonsense. This company makes billions of dollars a year. They could do better. -Working on a contract for the federal government offers no opportunities for advancement, especially when you're a remote worker. -My most recent manager was a complete jerk to me in the beginning. Now, he just ignores me 90% of the time. He selectively responds to my emails. -Training is a joke. They give one hour brownbags on different components of the functionality. The software is very complex and a brownbag just doesn't cut it. Not to mention, it's on your own time - hence the term "brownbag". -I worked on baseline for many years and was quite happy with my work, but CGI opened another office in a different state and moved our work there. Although it was not said directly to anyone, if you don't want to work on a contract project then you might not have a job. So, I agreed to work on the project even though I really didn't want to. Furthermore, the project I'm on does not utilize my skills or experience.
