Pros

An 8-5 job if you are a sales Associate

Cons

First of all, you can't take into consideration half of the reviews because after 60 days of employment, they ask that you review them and look. They do this to the few long term employees they have as well, likely offering bonuses. After all, they write fake reviews as a business! They're pros. This is a terrible company to work for. They lie to you from day one. They label the entry level position "sales associate" but you don't sell anything. You are a telemarketer and you bother people for a living. They discriminate against women, and pay men more on the hour - for the same job and seniority, from start date. They also don't tell you up front that you will be fired without hesitation if they deem that your numbers aren't amazing, and even if they are - they don't really have to have a reason. Not out of the ordinary to go in and 8 or 9 people to have been fired before the work day. And this is not a big company. Huge turnover rate. If you aren't fired before 2 months, you will want to quit anyways. This job is miserable even though they make the atmosphere appear fun. If you are in an outside office, be ware. They fire quickly in those offices as well and without notice. You will also have to come to Rochester for weeks to train and stay in a nasty hotel. But they make you feel special and give you the koolaid! They fired huge loads of people the week before Christmas. They don't care about their employees nor their families.

We are a transparent company who believes that REAL and honest feedback is crucial to our growth and development. That being said, we've created ReviewTube, where you can watch REAL video reviews from current AND former employees...check it out below: https://www.reviewtube.com/embed/rt_widget_d5.php?pid=D4T&pl_id=7p. Thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughts about CGI. We appreciate your input. We are sorry that you had a negative experience. CGI has been around for close to 30 years, we serve thousands of clients every week, all while striving to take care of our employees to the best of our ability. Whether it's an employee review, or monitoring reviews for our clients, our reviews online are not fake. Each review on this site has been added at free will, be it positive or negative. We do encourage our employees to write Glassdoor reviews, and that is something that every company is, and should be, doing, but no past or current employee has been offered additional compensation to do so. We strive to treat ALL employees equally. The ONLY consideration for a difference in original pay structure is experience. Other than that, employees can receive bonuses and promotions based on their own individual performance. We are sorry that you were not able to pave your path to success with us, but the hundreds of employees that have, are, and will speaks volumes to our overall mission.

Pros

Great work environment and the people I worked with were all very helpful. Really felt like a family. The bosses were all helpful and very fun to be around. I recommend them to people all the time. If you work hard you will be rewarded. I made some of my closest friends there

Cons

I really had no complaints with my time there

Pros

*Creative and dedicated owner and exec staff * excellent pay * I joined CGI in early 90s and watched it grow from a hand full of people to over 300. Owner continually tried to find ways to grow the company and and keep up with changing technology. In beginning we all worked hard to help company grow and Bob B (pres and ceo) has rewarded those that were there early on with excellent retirement plan. As we grew Bob was always open to new ideas and better ways to accomplish our goals, As companies grow sometimes hard decisions need to be made, and owner always tried to do what was thought to be best for the company and it's employees and if someone had better idea he was always open to discuss other options. I know i speak for many "long term" employees when I say I feel very lucky to have been a part of CGI and my life has been made better than I ever thought imaginable and it's because of Bob's leadership and generosity

Cons

A little of a companies camaraderie has been lost due to many people working from home but company tries to keep everyone informed and connected with zoom calls and meetings
