My experience with Cognizant has been excellent. I have been able to independently work to grow my team and business without much interference from the management. Job security in Cognizant is very good. Even in the worst of times, they do not let good people go.
Bureaucratic structure leading to red tapism. The folks in support functions don’t listen to anyone and feel that they are running the company. They create their own policies and try to block those those earning revenue for the company by calling out non compliance in everything you do. This has to go for Cognizant to grow faster.

This company gives good hike comparatively to it's peer.
Management is very poor, they don't know how to get new project,how to behave with people. Total mismanagement at top and mid level. Managers are doing favouritism always and they want to keep this bulish culture continue. They don't have good projects and clients.

Work life balance is good and flexibility of work pressure but it's surely depends on the project and the manager.
No recognition if you are worthy enough for promotion only depending upon seniority

Lots of project, so job security is there. Work-life balance (again depends on the client and project).
Extra benefits like (insurance and term insurance etc are not up to standard.) Salary hike is very less.

Cognizant policy and benifits was good.
Partiality, Lake support from your current supervisor when you release from any project you have to interview again many times, location was also the main concern since lake of opportunity in North.

Wfh policy is not strictly enforced unlike a few other service companies.
Internal job movement is a hassle and I could not leave my current project even though I wanted to change for the last 6 months.

CTS provides a good work life balance and decent salary. All other things depends on the type of project which you got.
As a fresher you will be getting support projects , so be aware before choosing any project.

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.
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.
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.
