For example, click on the “revolving door” button on the “Dayforce × Phoenix Pay System — Lobbying & Relationship Map” and you’ll find people who have moved from government work to related private sector employment. The website highlights Gianluca Cairo, the former chief of staff to the federal innovation minister, who was in government while the Phoenix fiasco played out. He then joined Ceridian HCM Holding Inc. which was then one of the leading bidders to replace the pay system. In the end, Ceridian’s Dayforce software won the contract and the federal ethics commissioner cleared Cairo’s move, as long as as he obeyed ethics rules around lobbying the government in his new role.
