We had a dream... which unfortunately has been killed...

Pros

People are, or at least were the absolute best thing about the company. For a great many people ("members"), it was never just a job - it genuinely was a way of life... The passion and commitment that people would give to the company was genuinely off the scale... CGI got people engaged and really working together as a team, and as a result, what we delivered to clients and shareholders were great results...

Cons

... and unfortunately its systematically been taken apart day-by-day with the acquisition of Logica. At least in Australia, as one earlier reviewer it really is "CGI, now part of Logica". The CGI culture - that made it such a great place to work - has been replaced 100% by the Logica culture of micro-managing results, no vision, little leadership, no communication and a stay-billable-or-you're-out culture.

CGI, a Logica Company

Pros

Share plan was quite generous, and there can be decent training options available if you pursue it with enough zeal.

Cons

In the Australia BU - since the Logica reverse takeover - there's been too many cons to mention. Staff treated with disdain and disrespect, no commitment to growth or to supporting Directors who could have made a difference. Running after bid responses without any planning or direction, plus having no idea how to co-ordinate staff or how to handle internal communication has created a mess. Top heavy with clueless middle and upper management who have no direction and no leadership. Company has no realistic pipeline and certainly lacks any decent sales people. The recent round of redundancies seemed to target the last remnants of the "heritage CGI" membership so that that mainly only ex-Logica staff remain. Anyone with any leadership has been drummed out - the reverse takeover is complete.
