Our Environment
The CIGI Campus includes two award-winning buildings: the historic nineteenth century Seagram Co. distillery warehouse; and the state-of-the-art CIGI Campus building, designed by Toronto-based architects KPMB.
At CIGI, fresh ideas need fresh air — which is why the organization has embraced employee-led initiatives including walking and running clubs, yoga lessons, health and wellness fairs and organized sport teams. Combined with the activities offered within the community-at-large, CIGI employees enjoy a vibrant and engaging environment.
Employees at CIGI also take pleasure in a wide range of organized team-building activities throughout the year, including summer BBQs, chilli and soup cook-offs, holiday parties and coffee-chats.
