CTS is good..okay to work
There is lack of support from HR depth. It only comes into picture when giving a warning, exit news, putting people on bench, any bad report ..no support for bench employees, listens to operations teams being bais. NO decision of its own as a dept. Operations sr managers use insulting languages, they invite pandoras box of questions from clients unnecessarily, asks unwanted data to be pulled, misbehaved using unethical language..lay off employees basis on their personal choice etc.. Need a strong leadership not just managers..no growth opportunities, managers stop talking to employees whom they do not like. No exposure to enhancing skills, align unnecessary courses which is heavy time consuming. Targets are to accomplish managers own goals to get salary hikes and promotions..unnecessary decks to bevoreoared knowing the client dies not talk but the deck ..at all.....Read More

Cognizant is a great place for exploring your inner capabilities, developing new skills and lots of opportunity for learning. Good compensation and work environment. Friendly support staff and helping team mates will make your work pressure went unnoticed.
Under performers may face bench time, followed by layoff.

this company sucks
this company is working like a mini south India and neglect the people from north and avoid giving promotions and keep all controls and power in their hand. upper management treats employees like labourers and exploit them by extending work hours , timsesheet , work from office and no WFH any day. also unnecessary escalations

Premium courses are available at free of cost. Offers free certifications. My manager always support me at any time.
Need to work more than 11 hrs a day. No allowance for weekend support. there's no cab facility. Less insurance amount. Very very less annual hike (1 % to 5%) There are no dine out programs and team building activities. Always work work work. Sometimes need to work on weekends too. Promotions are very tuff. Ps: this is my project experience

Cab Service is Good.
I've been working since 2016 and joined Cognizant in 2021. I've had the worst experience of my entire Professional career working here. I was in Service Desk Department of TJX Project and the managers (esp. Sourav Singh & Mainak Sarkar) would misbehave with everyone at every instance. Same goes for SMEs (Sonali Menon & Manisha Kar).These guys didn't even had to crack an interview to get the positions all thanks to the Senior Associate Deepak Kumar Singh who turns blind eye at every atrocities employees face there. They run the project like a Gram Panchayat Office while discriminating on the basis of Religion and Caste....Read More

Company culture is too chil & good ( depends on respective Project) Working hours are flexible Hybrid mode is followed
Promotion policy is very worst that you can never seen in any organisation. The rules for promotion is very pathetic and also those Manager/ HR are not ready to give promotion even if we eligible. They will simply positioned to another cycles Job security is poor and termination will become a casual word in the organisation
