CGI reviews

Learned a lot through training Heard there was a sense of camaraderie between consultants at other locations Very well-organized systems Very fair compensation

CGI is a global operation. Whilst the management frameworks are driven from Canada; the responsibility for bringing it all to life is devolved across the world, along the lines of geography and/or industry. That entrusts significant responsibility to the constituent local Business Units, to provide compelling opportunities for their teams, and to prosper with their clients. Contrary to some of these reviews, I have never found Canada having any desire to meddle at the coal face, unless things were going awry (which is a good thing). CGI isn't for everyone. The whole ethos of the firm is to share an entrepreneurial sprit with your colleagues, help your clients to succeed, and to do so profitably, so that everyone prospers along the way. They're increasingly looking for all rounders who get business, technology, and the 'business of technology/IT services'. When the business model all comes together, you don't need any North American positivity; its self evident in what and how you delivered. A lot of classic brand name IT firms are tanking at the moment; whilst some of the new Silicon Valley upstarts face all sorts of harassment and discrimination charges (age, gender etc.). CGI are good employer.
