Cognizant Senior Qa Test Engineer Reviews

Likes

Dislikes

The most I disliked is the annual hikes which is just peanuts. They have given 3-5% hikes to all the employees ( 5% was the maximum hike given to the top performers, rest all got 3-4%. Management forced us to work on weekends from office which could have been easily managed from home as no one comes on weekends and feels like I am in graveyard, and the entire bay remains empty.

Likes

Work life balance is good. Job satisfaction is also fair. Company pays fair enough. I am not satisfied or I should say I am not impressed with the appraisal procedure implemented by the management. Post 1 year no appraisal at all or the performance bonus. They have their own way of doing it in the month of July or August and it doesn’t matter when you have completed 1 year.

Dislikes

Appraisal and performance bonus payout .

Leadership matters the most. If you are under right leader you will have proper growth. You will have flexibility to work.

Dislikes

Organization still blindly believing some unskilled leaders. Noone seems to cross questioning on their capacity. Mostly onshore team members rushes behind taking someone's credit on their name. There are many positions where unskilled people are present which will let you work without playing politics.

Likes

For me provide learning and development opportunities such as certification vouchers from various companies.

Dislikes

For me not giving salary hike as per my payable work for last 3 years but it depends on projects to projects and manager's not a company issue.

Dislikes

To begin with, there is 10 hours shift wherein in the offer 9 hours is mentioned. Without proper training, they expect a new joiner to learn every single thing. Loads of politics and backstabbing from the management. No work transparency No support for the new joiners, they have to figure out everything on their own.. especially when you relocate
