CGI reviews

Far too many to list. I have never worked for a company where there are so many people who are either a) incompetent or b) utterly self interested or c) both. If you are a competent software developer and have got used to working for modern, product based companies, as I have, my advice is to not touch CGI and consultancy in general with a five metre barge bole. Don't be fooled by the notion that you can simply get on the internal jobs board and move to another project -there aren't enough on the go if you're a Java developer and if you're experienced your pay grade will disqualify you. Managers are terrible - I've had four in 8 months and I only liked one of those, although she barely spoke to me (probably why I liked her). Management style tends to fall between "don't give a toss about you" to "I'm going to micro manage every aspect of your working day". This even applies to scrum masters on projects who aren't even your manager. CGI is a bureaucratic hell - they actually send you fake phishing emails to "test" you.

Truly one of the worst companies I have ever worked for so I'm not sure where to start. -ZERO training for early career people despite what they say. Their "early career program" consists of facilitated Googling/Udemy which is already expected in the field of tech. No actual company or client training is provided. -Complete unprofessionalism and lack of respect. It's very common for management and even consultants to completely ghost scheduled meetings and regularly not respond to emails or DMs. -NOT a collaborative environment, consultants are out for themselves and rarely want to help other team members- if they do it's begrudgingly with a high dose of condescending attitudes. -Chaotic and disorganized at all times -Extremely low PTO -Incompetent, mediocre managers -Fake, cult-like culture -Management claims to care about their "members" but they do not. They only care about the client.
