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

Well it's a very good place to loose your mind and and peace. With the best 10 hours work culture and no benefits. And the best thing is the ratings they give depends on their personal choice and mood and the best part is once the rating is given it cannot be disputed. And unexpected promotions which will be given to others. Eg if A works hard B will get the promotion. Based on favouritism.

Dislikes

Hmmm. .... Everything. There is no help nor there is any support all are busy with their targets and targets and targets.

Likes

Cognizant has hybrid work model, which is good for employees.

Dislikes

Cognizant bench policy is bad, they give less days to get yourself into a project. Also salary hike is low.

Dislikes

Not a good transport facility service. Job security is also not there. Very short term projects. In most of the projects, the case is like one person has to do job of 3 people. If there is requirement of 3 people then they will assign all those task to single person. In terms of hike, even if we work harder and show our appreciations still they will say budget issue. No proper growth here. One common thing in all IT sector is that you will be valuable only if there is some work. If not then no one really cares. You are on your own. So be ready for anything guys.. be prepared always to crack interviews at any time....Read More
