Supportive team fosters learning despite communication silos - Salesforce Architect CGI Digital Employee Review

As a 9+ year employee at CGI, I’m incredibly grateful to work for a company that supports its employees through some of life’s biggest milestones. One of the benefits I appreciated most was the paid family leave policy, which allowed me to take time away to focus on my family without the added stress of worrying about my job or our finances. Paid family leave isn't something every company offers, which made me appreciate it even more. I'm proud to work for a company that recognizes how valuable this time is for growing families and provides meaningful support during those important moments.

No cons at the moment.

You'll meet some nice people.

Borderline illegal practices, substance/alcohol use during work hours, and immature leaders who think outbursts and long tangents make them seem ..intelligent? You might be tempted by an atmosphere that appears progressive and fun with promises that seem positive, but the reality is low pay, unethical work, and constant demoralizing attacks when leadership feels insecure about the cracks in their facade. They built and maintain a deeply toxic environment and genuinely seem to think that they do a good job at convincing you that you're the problem. There are 15–20% of employees who drink the Kool-Aid and become just as disconnected from reality as management. The rest are trying to get by. If you are young, a new grad, or simply need the job, everyone understands. But start your exit plan as soon as you join. Network, be kind, and don't feed into the fear-mongering or the theatrics. Research leadership and talk to other employees and ex-employees. This company has had a terrible reputation for an embarrassingly long time. Local employers within and outside the industry are also aware.
