      As a member of management, be careful and get connected into the Montreal management team.

      Pros

      There are many technical opportunities for growth especially if you are bilingual and speak French. There is a genuine lack of experienced resources and many opportunities for employment in many technical fields. If you want to move to other offices globally, you can easily make the connections and potentially move elsewhere (at your own expense).

      Cons

      Key decision makers and and the management approach is all based on the Montreal head-office perspective. Management in Montreal seems to have little time for trying to understand how the people and teams function in the Toronto area and expect treatment of clients and the way things get done to be the same. The management layer demands you be politically savy and develop tight relationships with the Montreal management.

      Pros

      I really like the work atmosphere and people I work with at CGI. Although I cannot speak from personal experience, I get the impression that other similar consulting companies (Accenture, Booz Allen, ect.) are more demanding of their employees. At CGI, things seem a little more relaxed. I typically work 40 hours a week, and have all my weekends off (of course there have been a few exceptions to this rule). Also, the people that I work with are great. They are smart and work hard, but are also fun and easy to get along with. I also think the work we do is interesting. I think the benefits are really good overall - however, the 401k match could be improved. Finally, the company seems to be doing fairly well.

      Cons

      The pay might be a little less then some of the more demanding companies I mentioned above; however, I still feel I'm paid a good salary.

      Pros

      When I joined AMS (before the takeover), it was known for the special AMS spirit. I did, in fact, experience this spirit with many colleagues across a number of different office locations.

      Cons

      At the time when I worked for AMS, it was obvious that some of the folks in high up management positions simply didn't do a good enough job to inspire confidence in the company's future. This is, of course, my personal opinion.
