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.

Salary - 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.

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.

Job security - Good

Dislikes

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.

Overall Experience: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (Positive) I interviewed for a Salesforce Developer role at OSB India. The process had 3 rounds: HR screening, a technical round, and a managerial round. The difficulty level was moderate, and the process took around 1 weeks.

Pros: ✅ Well-structured process ✅ Interviewers were professional and engaging ✅ Relevant technical questions Final Thoughts: I had a good experience with OSB India’s interview process. If you are well-prepared in Salesforce technical concepts, you should be able to clear it. Would I recommend it? Yes, passionate pals can cherish go crazy here
