CGI reviews

* Management is not "on your side". There are a lot of moments where a client may complain or disagree and management immediately comes at you without asking questions. * Incredibly slow, more than normal government consulting work * People pleasing company, so limited "consulting" opportunities * Typically stay on a specific project for years, even on the same team * Limited ability to take formal courses/certifications without signing yearly contracts * Even with a graduate degree, may be 4+ years before promotion to Senior Consultant regardless of work ethic/deliverables * Incredibly rare to meet someone who has been at the company for more than 2-3 years (most of my entry cohort has left within 3 years of working at CGI Federal) * Below average pay rate, and annual salary increases are minimal (3-5% avg)

Poor management. Overcrowded conditions. Terrible pay. Micro management. Company departments do not communicate well with each other. Don't buy their sales pitch on how they are a family and care about your mental health, they do not... Once you stop being a work horse they will try to push you out.
