CGI Group Business Analyst salaries in Chennai (Updated 2025)

Likes

The company has good employee policies. The job is pretty secure so you can relax and work. Good investment and Esops options.

Dislikes

...e pathetic and they want you to beg them for even a substantial hike. The salary review team is disconnected from the ground reality. DO NOT JOIN IF YOU ARE A MANAGEMENT GRADUATE

Work life balance is good for people who desperately need it

Dislikes

The worst here is compensation.. especially the distribution of compensation. There are examples of people not working at all and are receiving higher compensations for consecutive years in comparison to people who actually are talented and work hard. That's the reason all the good people either leave the company or get frustrated and start under-performing. Money is a big motivator for people especially living in Bangalore. And few people just get lucky to be picked for projects that pays well for minimal work. On the other side people getting selected for projects that actually requires hard work and brain are hardly paid. Also no onsite opportunities.

Earlier everything was good but since 2024 all policies got changed .I don’t suggest anyone to join such shit organisation

Dislikes

...projects and employee face uncertainty after being released from one assignment.when employee seek internal opportunities, managers in other BU inquire about their salary package and often respond that they don’t budget for it .This raises a question -if budget constraints vary from project to project why aren’t candidates informed about this during the hr discussions?Transparency during hiring would help employees make informed career decisions rather than facing sudden layoffs. why they are not allowing candidates to learn new technologies if new assignment requires it but they are not giving chance . Why 3 rounds interviews when employee looking for other project internally.

1. Work life balance 2. Projects are interesting and good to work, if you are in development role. 3. Skill growth is good.

Dislikes

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.

Dislikes

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.
