Vantaggi

Good place for juniors to learn a lot. Different departments to move to and different technology. If you are a senior or become one, do not stay there, unless you like to be abused and underpaid.

Svantaggi

Where to even begin the cons? - Almost yearly re-orgs because of competition between upper management. Re-Orgs means job cuts. - Yearly re-orgs create competition between teams and competition within each team. If you are a senior you will also compete against those juniors doing the same job as you, for 30% cheaper. - Salary is below the market. Yearly raises are rare (there is always an excuse), and when you get one, it's laughable compared to their competitions. Bonuses are peanuts. - Management are mostly liars (yes half-truths are still lies). They have no sense of where they want to bring CGI. They are having a hard time competing against the market. they will keep squeasing the lemon until there is no more juice left, then keep squeasing on and on and on. - They will expect you to do more than your shift ours, on your own time. because they are understaffed but projects keeps coming. You will be overworked and dont you dare complain. - They cancelled the possibility to work from home, saying most companies have done the same. Unfortunately that is a lie. They have a hard time trusting their employees.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.

no specific positives to highlight from my perspective

Svantaggi

I worked at CGI in both India and the USA and observed similar workplace culture concerns across both locations. The only real difference was HR—India HR felt more supportive, while my experience with USA HR was disappointing. My employment ended shortly after maternity leave due to an alleged “lack of projects,” which I experienced as a layoff. I also observed what appeared to be misuse of position by some leaders, including blurred professional boundaries, preferential treatment, and expectations that went beyond normal workplace roles—at times resembling personal-assistant-style demands rather than professional conduct. Surprisingly, I also noticed inconsistent “policies” applied differently to different individuals. In some cases, it felt like the rules changed depending on who you were. When leadership became aware that someone was related to another employee in the organization, it sometimes felt like that person was singled out or targeted rather than treated objectively. Overall, these practices—whether through inconsistent treatment, perceived power misuse, or favoritism—undermine trust, damage workplace culture, and raise serious concerns about fairness and professionalism.
