One of the best employee centric company in service based industry, recent statements from leaders from other organisation is shameful and treating their employee as daily wage labourer but thankful to my company leadership who has great vision and decisions are made towards employee focus. Company is still following hybrid model and no fixed days yet.
Dislikes
Promotions and appraisal are not process based, frequent change in salary increament schedule are changed and also arrear are not paid for 3months.

I believe working in a company is totally depends on the project team with whom we are working. As per my team experience I don't have any issues with the people and the culture of the company. The teammates and seniors around me are helpful and also the manager is good, he always motivate us to grow more.
Dislikes
Some time when somebody need to change their work location for the clients need then company should provide sufficient facilities which company does not provide, this is something which is unexpected.

Toxic Managers
Useless HRs
Hired us through campus placements as programmer analyst and gave us service desk role.
No training was provided by company and cheated us . We were around 1000+ who got the same support roles after being selected as programmer analyst from campus.

Its completely dependent on the Manager you are reporting to, but ideally the evironment is not great. The senior managment doesn't know how to lead by example. They are trying to enfore work, they are in frenzy
Dislikes
Senior management isn't great. They are just reacting to different situations, but ideally no proper governance.

If you swith to Cognizant, they will provide good salary compared to other service based company. They also push their associate for skill development with regular certification drive.
Dislikes

Liked the policies that is shown publicly or that a employee will feel initially but later when employees faces problems there is no guidelines and proper accountability.
Dislikes
The internal policies and politics are very bad.
The managers are too arrogant. There is no way the employee can provide appraisal to the managers.
There should be a appraisal process for Managers from employees as some companies are having.
