I liked the way politics happens in Cognizant in design team. Dont join if you want to learn n grow.
Cognizant is company good. no projects, no mangerial ethics and HR are managed by managers and directors. People leave boss not company.
No projects as to learn, management is blind for deaigners they give PowerPoint projects to seniors.

Studio culture and the environment are the most interesting aspects.
They tagged me under wrong designation and because of that I got low salary. For my experience I need to be in A while I am entering but still I am in PA now because of HR mistakes

Wotk life balance is good here.
The main problem is the structure/hirerkey is not in good shape. Seniors are favouring the associates whom they like. Promotions is not given in the right time to right people.

Global Opportunities, Career Growth, Innovative Environmen, Diverse and Inclusive Culture, Client Impact These are general aspects that employees often appreciate about working at large technology firms like Cognizant
It's important to note that experiences can vary widely depending on roles, teams, and individual circumstances within any organization, including Cognizant. For a more accurate picture, it's helpful to speak directly with current or former employees about their specific experiences and perspectives.

Worst work life balance. Complete politics. They just try to fill the seats in office. They expect you to work for 14 hours. And hike will not be according to your work, it's all about politics and friends.

It was like torturing ....Read More

You'll go school everyday and work for 10hr but your salary will credited for 9hr, high level of micromanagement, you are notified supposed to take leave irrespective of any scenario (Parental leave or even your own family died) they'll convince you to take leave for 2-5days only. Everyday there will be special warning session with management for 1 hrs with whole floor (e.g, if you are not meeting up the target you'll be sacked, etc etc)...Read More

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.
