Not a lot of work pressure. Very peaceful work culture. If you are lucky, you may get a great process to work with. Salary is good too.
Very notorious for putting people on bench. I was training the employees of two clients for 3 months and had successfully improved their performance, but when the time came for me to show my work to the management, they said that both the clients were not a part of the service line. All my efforts were a waste. No recognition at all. Nothing! A month later they put me on bench because they did not have any projects for me. Once you are on bench, you are just supposed to go to office on your own money (no cab facility), and mark your attendance and do nothing. THIS IS THE STORY OF MANY PEOPLE WHO HAD BEEN PUT ON BENCH....Read More

Good work environment and culture. Teammates are supportive and the management is transparent.
There is a lot of politics and the management doesn't address our issues. Salary is decent but career growth is slow. There is a bond of 2 year before which you cannot resign. On the job training is not giving to new joinees.
The job is quite interesting struggle a bit in the beginning as there was no formal training session. I learnt everything on the job.

Its completely dependent on the Manager you are reporting to, but ideally the evironment is not great. The senior managment doesn't know how to lead by example. They are trying to enfore work, they are in frenzy
Senior management isn't great. They are just reacting to different situations, but ideally no proper governance.

Cognizant provides good CTC to candidates.
Extended working hours on almost daily basis. Sincere employees are overburdened with work while the insincere ones just enjoy. No time for self learning due to long working hours. Appraisal is based on office politics and not credibility.

Appraisal process is not good, too much expectation and no hike in return.
Very less project in SAP and very small small account where job security is always in question

There are learning and development opportunities via udemy and internal platforms but the team management doesn't provide time to utilise the same.
This openion limited to Staff Augmentation vertical - 10 hrs work culture takes 12 hrs to satisfy the unrealistic expectations and poorly managed processes. Too many unfair and biased approach by almost all TLs TMs and SDMs. If you are an outsider for positions beyond SPE you wouldn't be welcomed and treated well, tenured and competitors in the org will sabotage your growth.

Worse experience with Cognizant, the project they will assign you won't have future and you have no option they will make you work or go on the bench
No future growth ,the management are just to save there position, no technical knowledge, they will treat you like slave ,they won't approve the leaves and make you to work on Saturday. Mentally they will torcher the agent ,and after few day they will ask the employe to be on the bench and take search new job

I got very high learning opportunities with great role and responsibilities and they had high trust in me.
As other MNCs we have all the dislikes especially we will get support even if we are developers, won't get enough resource for the project as needed so will get high work but I'm lucky to get into the right project but my colleagues were unlucky in there as well.
