Couldn't manage work-life balance, more than 12 hours working, feeling so stressed and I have joined in nov 28, 2020 still I am in PA position with 5LPA package. There is no time to develop my skills, only I can focus on target.

Likes

Colleagues are good and very co-operative.

Dislikes

There is a lack of work-life balance, a poor work culture, and ineffective leadership management. While some managers are supportive, others practice excessive micromanagement. Leave approvals are rarely granted, and the work environment is highly demanding. Being on the bench puts you in the red zone, whereas being in a project offers job security.

Cognizant has its challenges as a workplace. While there are learning opportunities, the work environment and work-life balance heavily depend on the project, which can make the experience unpredictable. Overall, it’s not the most rewarding place to work.

Dislikes

The salary is low, promotions take forever, and the work culture isn’t great. It really depends on the project, but overall, it’s not the best experience.

Work-life balance (Although it depends on project to project) Good work culture and friendly team.

Dislikes

1. Salary 2. Scope to learn and apply it in project. CTS provides access to Udemy where we can enroll into courses as much as we want, but our team faced lack of opportunities to apply them in project.

It is good for beginners, avoid going into support project as they will make you work even on your sick days off. And HR wont help in this case either.

Dislikes

Work-life balance is close to non-existant. Really poor promotion cycles. No help from anyone if the project shuts down, you will have to look for another one on your own , else they will remove you. Used to pay fairly but is now as good as literally any other company like TCS, Infosys in terms of both work quality and compensation. No real way to move vertically based on merit unlike TCS.

Seniors and team leader are very toxic. Seniors scold very badly to freshers even if you don't small mistake. They will call you anytime other than shift timings for their convenience. They are pressuring to complete your work before the shift timings. There is no work life balance
