Recruiter and consultant
People who are taking interviews are corrupted. Rsystem rejected no email confirmation why rejected Ey rejected no email confirmation. Accenture rejected Noper selected after some days they say ur position is on hold CGI last 6 month company search pen tester. I'm thinking they didn't get a person for the pen tester. I had given a good interview no email confirmation and no call from the recruiter. They are just making fun of employees. Infosys is hiring for 6 months for pen tester. I'm a little curious about it. KPMG interview conducted no feedback. Securlayer no feedback. Logicmonitor hop less Capgemini are doing timepass Cognizant we are searching more employees HP not interested to entertain HCL technologies rude manager Why companies saying we have openings, just to show the government we are hiring. Innovision labs they two round they said rejected after giving good interview Northern trust just collect cv and don't hire

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.

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.

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.
