Instead support employees received attack from cognizant alongside COVID-19 as their new policies to move out employees whoever in bench for more than 30 days even in these difficult situation in which we didn't get much projects.
Dislikes
Job security - Cognizant's new policies like moving out employees based on rating, bench time more than 30days gave a very strong weapon to managers, who can misuse against the associates he dislikes by rating low or releasing.
Work Details
It was good in earlier time when i joined, over the period when company grows and when management changes it became terrible.
If you are lucky and get good team members and a good project, you will learn a lot. If you are sincere and willing the company have enough resources to upskill yourself. Benefits provided are good.
Dislikes
A lot of senior people have zero capabilities. They are there only to steal credit from subordinates and take a fat cheque end of the month. A lot of architects, senior architects and even principle architects have so less technical knowledge that they will not be able to write a hello world program. My delivery manager of three years didn't even know what was the project about. A lot of times hard work is not valued enough....Read More
