      Pros

      The size and number of opportunities is one of the good points. A lot of people with skills, experience and competence. If your good in business politics, you can go even further... For most part of the staff, overtime is paid, except team managers and upper management.

      Cons

      The size of the company, politics. You must have friends at right places. People are protective of their area or roles and responsibilities. This is normal in any big size company and governmants.

      So far seems to be a good first job

      Pros

      Flexible about working from home, or even from another city. Fairly laid back environment. I hear it's easy to move between projects and offices. I also get the sense that things vary a lot between projects and offices. Company stock share plan that is matched 50% up to 2% of salary. Reasonable vacation time, as well as other personal leave as needed. As mentioned below, sometimes things are very slow. During those times there is flexibility about coming in a bit late, leaving a bit early. There is a social club, and their events tend to be worthwhile. Many of your co-workers will be fairly young.

      Cons

      Variation between projects can be frustrating. Some teams have very little to do, while others are putting in 80 hour weeks. If you're not working from out of office or traveling, you will be working in a cube. Some technical consultants end up in relatively un-technical roles. For example, developers who do very little coding and spend most of their time support existing systems, upgrading third party software, etc. Working mainly or exclusively from home can be a drag, and some complain of missing personal collaboration with their team. Sometimes management's expectations are unclear. Sometimes the laid back attitude leads to simple tasks taking longer than is necessary.

      Pros

      CGI is a big firm which gives you a great name on a resume you get to work with various types of great clients

      Cons

      CGI doesnt really have a good reputation in the public's view for certain types of contracts. contracts are often negociated very high and it gets hard to do business development unless you work with the businness development team.
