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.

I was able to successfully transform a conventional classification model into a deep learning classification model with 85% accuracy. The team was excited to learn and I had a lot of core knowledge from them. They were very open to implement newer technologies.

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.

The most I disliked is the annual hikes which is just peanuts. They have given 3-5% hikes to all the employees ( 5% was the maximum hike given to the top performers, rest all got 3-4%. Management forced us to work on weekends from office which could have been easily managed from home as no one comes on weekends and feels like I am in graveyard, and the entire bay remains empty.

If you are not satisfied with anything here that's all depends on your reporing manager. Since my reporing manager is below average, my bonus salary hike is worst, and promotion never think of it even if I stay here for next 3 years. I got first promotion and 100% hike in just 1 year when my ex lead was there, it has been almost 3 years from my last promotion from then very less hike. But the amount hard work 4 persons work handling single handed....Read More

For a 2.5 lakh package, the health benefits are the same as those for a 10 lakh package. However, based on the cost of living, there are no benefits for associates on low packages (e.g., in BPO or non-growth departments) after more than five years. There is a lack of development opportunities, leading to career stagnation at Cognizant.

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.
