      Pros

      - Larger clients, mostly financial sector - Stock sharing - Management means well

      Cons

      - Only focus is on bill-ability of employees, this overshadows any focus on the individual's growth, work balance etc - Temporary layoffs are a complete cop-out. I've seen three rounds of layoffs in the past 6 months, and there is very little communication around this. Lots of fear mongering, ie. you better be 80+ billable or you're next. People are forced into TLO so they are not able to collect a package. - No vision for the interactive department, running by the seat of it's pants - Talented people are overworked while those who are incompetent squeak by on 40 hours - No communication with employees around vision, future

      Pros

      The team for whom I worked was great. One of the best.

      Cons

      Other teams not so much. Herding cats and you end up taking over on an IMC call for something not even in your sphere. I feel they blacklist employees they RIF. I had a great Director try to get me in with other BUs and nothing. He tried again and again. Others who got RIF'd told me the same. Not good. Also, seems people look over their shoulders looking for the Grim Reaper. Not a good way to be. And the higher ups that are in charge of client retention seem to not be the ones on the firing line, only the consultants that did great work for the clients who decide to leave. HR who is supposed to help get another job within the company are worthless. They want you to do all the work. Also, CGI is so big teams only know what they know. Learning other teams' stuff seems to be frowned upon. How can you move around? This login makes you stuck.
