Share purchase plan Multiple locations to work from. Flexible timings and no mandatory amount of swipe in time in office unlike most companies
Job security as long as you are billable Hikes are minimal and as usual depends on the rapport with Manager Most of the project managers are micromanaging and not a good environment to learn or grow. Most of the manager are from Hyderabad and prefer Telugu speaking On-site opportunities are less and per diem are one of the lowestOnce youāre out of project you āve 45 days to find another else you will be forced to resign Possibility to upskill / cross skill is very less and manager cares only about completing security trainingās Managers arenāt aware of other projects in organisation and moving to different team or project is also next to impossible unless they want to...Read More

I liked that I came out alive.
Its a 'Lala' company, no work culture, everything is done on ad-hoc basis. Late night working hours which lead to heath issues. CGI is least bothered about your well being, they will even pull you out of your death bed for there work. Employees are used till CGI feels they are needed & then will make a plot to throw them out. Full politics, its doesn't have a conducive environment for honest, hardworking person. Managers are incompetent....Read More

1. Work life balance 2. Projects are interesting and good to work, if you are in development role. 3. Skill growth is good.
1. Salary is low if compared to work you will be doing. 2. Teams are usually quite helpful but not very competitive. This sometimes breaks your growth graph.

Depends upon project and business unit. For me , here in DataCycle360 and Wealth360, work is excellent means, you will get more and more work if you are able to do quickly so, learning opportunity is excellent, technologies is also decent as per industry, but if i think independently and don't compare with other company then carriers growth (salary) in terms of appraisal is not good.
Appraisal, salary growth within CGI, Hybrid mode of working, WFO, In terms of quality and quantities work delivered - More work is there based on current 9LPA CTC of promoted SSE atleast for me, by comparing with external hired SSE which takes 19LPA. So, Switching to other company is good rather than getting Promoted within CGI.

Definately a great place to work if you are less ambitious about financial growth. Almost zero micro management. Perfect place for experienced people to get settled or for longer run.
Not at all recommended for freshers. Very less salary hike and confusing apraisal cycle. Unnecessary hierarchy and complex organisation structure. Full off useless managers only drawing huge amount of salary just by talking in calls 2-3 hours everyday. IJP & internal trainings are all showoff. No use at all.

Okay if you don't aspire to grow in your career.
Management is incompetent to manage the employees ambitions and aspirations. Lack of mentorship and guidance. How much ever you bleed for the org they rate you ME.

Work life balance is good along with good job security too unless you are on bench for too long period. Most people behave respectfully in the organization
They have CGI academia for upskilling however no opportunity to get into new projects as no manager entertains or contacts them when they are on bench. Also salary increment was max 3% last year, well below industry standards.

As a fresher, joining CGI has been a great experience for me. One of the things I really appreciate is the supportive learning environment. CGI provides excellent resources and opportunities for professional development, which has helped me build my skills and confidence. The company culture is also something I admireāit's collaborative, inclusive, and fosters teamwork, making it a great place to grow both personally and professionally. Overall, I feel valued and motivated to contribute to meaningful projects....Read More
There isn't anything I strongly dislike, but if I had to mention something, I would say that, as a fresher, adapting to the corporate environment and managing multiple tasks initially felt challenging. However, I see it as a valuable learning experience that has helped me develop better time management and adaptability skills. I appreciate how supportive the team has been in helping me navigate these challenges....Read More

They provide cab facility and free meal which are extra. You can learn different skill through their Academia portal (Similar to Udemy).

Learning and development. Moving employees to different team with zero knowledge opportunity for everyone, even if they don't deserve it. Freshers gets trained on a subject for 6 months then put into production whatever skill sets they develop in 6 months of training
Yearly hike very low. Only when you join, so ask for more
