I downloaded Genki and the CDs that came with it. しごと was pronounced as
'shingocto' instead of 'shigoto.' Why is that?

words phonology
Is しごと pronounced as 'shingocto'?
I am not native, but when I have spoken with Japanese or even watched TV /
movies I have never heard 仕事{しごと} any way but as しごと

Feel free to find other sources of audio (actually do!)

I found a [great video that start off with
仕事](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRa-Yf2JWfI)

To my ears, his accent (if he has one) is spot on. Although a native speaker
is a much better judge of that.
