No focus on skill development, or grooming resources, and few leaders are very hard to work on with.

Poor Salary structure, outsiders gets good salary but if someone stay for longer, their salary moves very slow, it's like punishment to the long timers.

Job insecurities, you get only 35 calendar days to hunt new project inside Cognizant, which is really small window. Thretening for disciplinary action starts popping up after 35 day's window.
This window is small, specially if you come to bench in Dec/ Jan. Moreover, your supervisors keeps on changing based on project and there is no "Standard Operating Procedure" for the supervisors to share their thoughts before sharing ratings or building opinions about the associate....Read More

There's lots of opportunities to grow and get skilled in latest technologies. Certification opportunities and widely available. Work Life balance vary from project to project.
Dislikes
Even though the fixed components are higher than many companies, it's quite less compared to many leading it giants. The yearly increment is very less and it's zero to none for freshers. Appraisal of 5 star rating is almost never given even after going above and beyond expectations. You'll be compensated with bare minimum cheer points.

Nothing I liked. One of the torcher organisation. Making people to commit Suicide with their behaviour. No support from anyone.
Dislikes
One of the worst organisation I have worked in my entire life. With no good faculty no work support. Making human torcher with their work. Mis-using of all leads. There is no person who is ready to listen to agents. If we do anything or not it's completely comes under our fault. If you don't know anything if you ask its your fault.

Don't expect any appraisal or hikes or any benefits. And you have to follow strictly office timing there is no any exception. They are following some office politics and favorites. No leaves approval you have to beg for your leaves approval

Learning scope is good. You have a dedicated platform to explore and learn the skill of your choice at your convenience.
Dislikes
Promotion cycle/criteria changes recently adopted (Internal Job Moves) - allowing supervisors to promote the resources to next level without a specific criteria. This is creating official platform for favourability.
