The company is known for its emphasis on continuous learning and development, offering employees plenty of opportunities to grow and advance in their careers. Additionally, Cognizant is involved in various innovative projects across different industries, which can be exciting and rewarding for those who enjoy tackling complex challenges and contributing to transformative solutions.
The work-life balance could be better, Salary growth and increments could be substantial, Promotion that is not always on merit list, Senior Management communication and support from leadership should be better.

Nothing to say much
Management and promotions are based on favaourism and very poor in salary hike and mainly without discussion with employees management gives us performance rating and apart from work there is no other activity today like no outings team lunch and other fun activities

Nothing to like except to learn how to survive in toxic management.
Never ever join cognizant those who have had technical skills, dreams to thrive in career also have family responsibilities as Cognizant job security is Zero. Projects are surrendered and handled by incapable management. Anytime one can be off boarded from project even though performing well.

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.

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

Job security is very less whenever the current project gets completed & it'll be very much difficult to find the opportunity that matches to the skill requirement and skill development will be at risk for the new joiners and middle level associates

No salary hike, no promotion. Not good personal growth. Feels like when you got good opportunity and leave for better life.

I have had the opportunity to work with clients, and I appreciate the client positive environment. which makes the work experience enjoyable. However, I feel that there isn’t anything particularly unique about the company itself.
I appreciate my time at the company and the collaborative environment we have. However, I would like to express that the lack of promotions and salary increases has been a concern for me. It can be discouraging when hard work doesn't seem to be recognized through career advancement or financial rewards. I believe that addressing these aspects could greatly enhance employee satisfaction and motivation....Read More
