Cognizant Recruitment Manager Reviews

Likes

Your shift flexibility is based on your manager. Work life balance was good previously, but from past 2 years it is really worst, not in 1 aspect but in every case. If it continues none will respect this company anymore.

Dislikes

No matter how hard you work you won't get promoted, you will get promoted only after 3 years that with many politics. Hike persentage just 3-4%. Asset, projects, facilities, benefits are utter worst

Promotions should be given as per the hard work and caliber of an employee . There shouldn't be any partiality for the employees from supervisors.

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.

Dislikes

The salary is low, promotions take forever, and the work culture isn’t great. It really depends on the project, but overall, it’s not the best experience.

Work-life balance (Although it depends on project to project) Good work culture and friendly team.

Dislikes

1. Salary 2. Scope to learn and apply it in project. CTS provides access to Udemy where we can enroll into courses as much as we want, but our team faced lack of opportunities to apply them in project.

It is good for beginners, avoid going into support project as they will make you work even on your sick days off. And HR wont help in this case either.

Dislikes

Work-life balance is close to non-existant. Really poor promotion cycles. No help from anyone if the project shuts down, you will have to look for another one on your own , else they will remove you. Used to pay fairly but is now as good as literally any other company like TCS, Infosys in terms of both work quality and compensation. No real way to move vertically based on merit unlike TCS.

We can get free online portal like udemy.

Dislikes

Once you are hired, there is no relevant project assignment, you need to forcefully work on assignment project and not based on your profile. No work satisfaction and company culture. Not good promotions, salary.

Dislikes

Seniors and team leader are very toxic. Seniors scold very badly to freshers even if you don't small mistake. They will call you anytime other than shift timings for their convenience. They are pressuring to complete your work before the shift timings. There is no work life balance

If ur manager is good and have guiding nature and judges u on the basis of work, u r soo lucky else u will have praise them(iykyk).

Dislikes

So much of internal politics goes on. My manager has pulled her brother into the same project and he has been been promoted to associate within very time irrespective of his work. His work quality is very poor. And during client meeting also, he was not able to convey his deliverables properly. The client was not at all satisfied and irrespective of all this he got promotion this time.
