There is nothing in this company, you will find yourself in loop where you see no improvements in you. Biased people around and obviously it depends on projects but manager was horrible and so irritating. I hope you all don’t join this company if you are seeking good future. NEVER JOIN, I REPEAT.
EVERY FCKING THING ABOUT HERE IS HORRIBLE .NO WORK LIFE BALANCE. ASSHxLES.

Nothing. It's a terrible company
Work culture is bad, people don't have manners. Can't talk professionally. No appreciation. A lot of internal politics. As a north indian in South felt decriminated.

Work life balance is good. If you are looking for a stable job, this is a good place to work.
Cognizant was a great place to work at one time, now there is not much good projects. Not to mention the terrible career growth. Most projec6s are support and operations. You will hardly get any increment in spite of best performance rating.

Work culture is good in AI and Analytics team. Lot of opportuinity to learn and grow ,work life balance variea from project to project but in AIA its mostly good in majprity of projects.
Transportation from cognizant dosent covers whole bangalore its a big problem if your are bangalore south travelling to Manyata is a big problem in pkst covid traffic. Perks provided are not adequate cognizant still uses very old parameters to.calculate daily allowances if you work from client office what they offsr niether covers fuel nor food expense.

Working environment in every project differs. My starting project was very well employee friendly. Leave policies are good here.
Some projects do micro management. You will get irritated by management.

Cognizant have lot of job opportunities and provide nice pay according to market standards. People working in cognizant can switch to other technology and work on it.
Hikes are very less when compare to other companies. Due to internal politics talented people efforts are recognised.

Nothing as such
1. They blame employees for the things which are not managed by the company 2. No one responds to your mails and messages 3. Irrelevant training, and later totally different assessment which is difficult to clear 4. They hire for technical profile but asked to work in non tech or resignation.

Will get salary that is ok
But if you give more importance to mental health than salary don't join this company. You are literally a slave of the client and no body will speak for you.. and if your too lucky to get a client like Novartis(pharmaceutical company) and especially get into celonis tool project then you can say bye bye to your mental health and just hug the salary you get and stay. Working hard is not the issue but the politics they play and the slavery you guys will experience is more than what was done in the colonization period. Hope everyone understands my mental health state currently and would deeply analyze before joining cognizant or Novartis....Read More

Company is good but sometimes your management is frustrating. Biased to favourites. Skilll development used to happen when i joined but disappeared with time. ( earlier they used to proivde six sigma training but never after that). Its unfortunate that your manager never shows data on the basis of which you are rated. Just verbal words and assumption. If they want to fire you they will put work pressure on you and appoint their pawn around you who will point fingers on you and sometimes plays with your emotions as well. Even if you are working hard you or your team will be never recognized. Suddenly after you left / aur asked to volunterly resign by HR your team will become best team on the floor because it was then headed by the same pawn. Polictics is played everywhere but cognizant is the hub. SDM makes their own rules and follow them. This all happened after my management was changed....Read More

Overall cognizant has a very good environment to work with. But I should say it also purely depends on the team which we have put into. The salary is higher for freshers and lateral compared to other companies.
We cannot expect good ratings and promotion even if we deserve it. As they ask you to work 10 hrs continuously, you will not have time to develop your skills.

No salary issues and if you get proper project and colleague your are good to go. Every 6 months there is a skill up process you can utilise to improve your self.
PM not having technical knowledge and worst experience in support project . Talent management team not having proper tacking they didn't care about your skills match with your project. Hike is also low always 3 ratings for support projects. There is no straight point of contact to enquire anything. Cognizant not tracking if you are extending time in your client projects it's depends on your project and higher level....Read More
