Member Review

I reticently joined CGI as a graduate level apprentice, So far we have spent most of our time in training, leaning programming skills and we have attended a two week long uni boot camp course. I have also been assigned to a practice project of sorts which involves robotics process engineering which is being treated as a real project to show us how real projects function.

I have gained some new skills i certain programming languages, however i am still in the process of fully understanding them, however the uni boot-camp did help as the lecturers gave good explanations and were open to questions. Team members at work are also able to assist me in my learning as they are experienced in the subjects that i am currently studying and they are happy to take questions.

I have enjoyed this program so far everyone is friendly and is always happy to help, the company is also great to work for, they promote a workplace where employees are able to expand upon their skills to better secede in their roles. The workplace also offers many opportunities for members to learn new things or oin exciting new projects

I feel highly valued by CGI. a great amount of emphasis has been giving to incorporating us into the office. We have also been recognised outside of cgi, skill development Scotland have been involved in our time at CGI, since we are some of the first in scotland to take part in a sponsored degree like this one, so we have been interviewed and filmed by them while we were in uni. Also as i stated earlier we have been assigned a practice project to get us involved in the project process

Our program was reasonably well structured however there were some problems on the first week with devices not working etc which did interrupt the flow of our project. But other than that our time here has been handled well and we are always kept busy with something to do. Training was also well organised as it was clear to you what was going to happen each day we attended

We have received a lot of support from the lecturers at our uni boot camp, they were happy to answer any questions we had and they helped us with our. In the office the same is more or less true, everyone is happy to answer questions and assist you if it is needed. Any technical issues are also easy to get fixed as it s clear who you are to contact and they can solve your issues quickly

Our employer offers a great amount of support to us, We have access to a great HR support team who help us if we have any issues hat aren't technical. managers also offer support when needed and are again able to answer questions.

Our salary fits my needs very well it allows me to travel and gives me a significant amount to spend on social things such as nights out etc. If there is something we require for work or uni we could also expense it so that the company pays for it

there are plenty of opportunities outside of work, office events ( such as nights out) are commonly organised and as i stated earlier there re plenty of opportunities giving for learning outside of work .

Yes

Because this is a great company to be a part of. CGI offers many opportunities for its members to learn and succeed. The people who work for this company are also incredibly friendly and helpful. CGI also offers the opportunity to work on fun and exciting projects using great equipment.

Always as for help if you are stuck because there is always someone who will help you, and also look for opportunities that you would be interested in taking part in because they will help you in your role here
