I got my H1B visa approved then they put me on bench. They have given very less performance rating just because my H1B got approved. If You need promotion then you have to take release from current project.

The company is known for its emphasis on continuous learning and development, offering employees plenty of opportunities to grow and advance in their careers. Additionally, Cognizant is involved in various innovative projects across different industries, which can be exciting and rewarding for those who enjoy tackling complex challenges and contributing to transformative solutions.
The work-life balance could be better, Salary growth and increments could be substantial, Promotion that is not always on merit list, Senior Management communication and support from leadership should be better.

I had a disappointing experience working at Cognizant as a Process Executive in the GIS field. The work environment was toxic, with a lack of professionalism among colleagues and management. Favoritism and partiality were prevalent, making it difficult to grow based on merit. Work-life balance was poor, as excessive pressure and unrealistic expectations left me with little time after work. The overall culture did not foster a supportive or motivating atmosphere. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t recommend it to those seeking a healthy and professional workplace....Read More

Cognizant gives more opportunities to freshers.
The actual work time is 9 hours production & 1 hour break. It takes 12 hours production to complete everyone except any break. And also we should maintain errors.

If ur manager is good and have guiding nature and judges u on the basis of work, u r soo lucky else u will have praise them(iykyk).
So much of internal politics goes on. My manager has pulled her brother into the same project and he has been been promoted to associate within very time irrespective of his work. His work quality is very poor. And during client meeting also, he was not able to convey his deliverables properly. The client was not at all satisfied and irrespective of all this he got promotion this time.

Higher management is worst, total cmpy internal politics will rule the process, no ethics and values in this cmpy and force us to resign when we ask anything and they'll go egoistic Working hours is 10 hrs, they will put lot of pressure to complete the work, they hire only limited people bcoz budget limitations and we have to extend the shifts till 12 - 14 hrs a day Promotions will be available only for chamchas (who will say always yes to Managers)...Read More

I liked my profile and job
the unwanted politics amongst seniors to bully their juniors, i was kind of harassed by newly appoiinted manager. Supercedness by seniors; ignoring the situations, dedicatedly commiting on everything to the client requirement without consulting with team members who actually knows what the scenario and work is.
