Work culture is great, people are very supportive (though not all), most of the facilities are well lighted and you get a feeling of working at a premium IT company
Dislikes
Career growth is slow. Hierarchy is huge and takes really long for promotion (2 years in best case scenario and I think not more than 0.1% are lucky enough to get that). If people are a bit lucky, they get promoted in 3 years, else, they can keep counting the years.
Work Details
I'm part of the team which has lots of work with odd working hours and least work life balance. Though I get WFH facility and don't have to spend 9 hours at office, but work timings could be anytime between 7:00 am till 11:00 PM. Other teams are chill.
They will give projects as per their requirements not as per your skills.
Dislikes
No one care about employee, client is always everything for cognizant

There is no work life balance. Hike being provided is biased and to some employees it is like myth.
