Many projects. Job security. Wide experience. Tier 1 company. Good performance review system.
Slow promotions despite of excellent rating. External talents are promoted. People who continue to perform with top ratings are not given the same despite of continued tenurity. Very very slow growth. If you leave cognizant and come back after a year, you ll get promotion

Work life balance. Hybrid work model Salary as there is very little variable component unlike other companies.
No promotions. I have seen people waiting 8 years to be promoted. No job security if you are on bench. No good projects in infrastructure domain for career growth. No skill development. No encouragement to develop cross domain skills. Last but not the least, too much of favouritism based on region and language you speak. Atleast it was in my case.

I appreciate Cognizant's strong emphasis on innovation, learning, and career growth. The company provides excellent opportunities to work with cutting-edge technologies and global clients, which helps employees gain valuable industry exposure. Additionally, Cognizant fosters a collaborative and inclusive work environment, encouraging teamwork and continuous learning.

Salary credited on time. Two way cab. Large campus. Once in 6 months we use to go to trip to nearby places.
No work life balance. Constant pressure to meet targets. Worked overtime without any additional payment. Leads will put you on PIP if you don't meet the targets.

Their training program is good
After giving training in academy, there are lot of irregularities in project allocation. Joiners have to wait for 1-6 weeks for projects and also some problems after that. They also don't allow them to report from home during this waiting period (where they are just sitting idle for days).
