The best part of job is the opportunity to constantly learn and grow, i wax regurarly face new challenges that help me grow professionally and personally, i was enjoy the collaborative environment in my office

Dislikes

Too much politics I know it is everywhere and in all kinds of jobs. But i never thought that i would be saying this because i'm not that kind of person who'd give shit anyone's political or selfish motives.

It's okay if you are coming as an experienced professional but if you are a fresher it is a little bit hard to find projects but comparatively from other service-based MNCs, its good.

Dislikes

The learning and upskilling opportunities were great.

Dislikes

The project I worked on had no work-life balance, the goal was to complete a certain target every day and they didn't care how much time you took but needed the target completed by the end of the day. I asked for a project change which they blatantly refused. I only had the option of leaving the company then

Excellent place for learning and growth.

Dislikes

Bench policy for experienced. They give 2 months of time and if you dont get project, you are out. Actually that is pretty good time for learning and getting a project. But for some technologies its hard to get calls.

CTS is good with hikes and promotion.

Dislikes

No work life balance and hefty work which leads to high pressure and eventual day slogging. Lot of people left due to slogging issues and no compensation for the extra hours.

It is like a factory in which people are looked as a product of competitors and full of conflicts at all level. People who are working in a group can only sustain in this organisation and that too for sometime only so beware.

Dislikes

Culture, Group-ism at Senior Management level, Niche department like PMO, Transformation, Change Management which are known for conducting efficient projects and driving organisations growth is incompetence and filled with toxicity. On the innovation front the company has stole their official logo so one can imagine the innovation level.

I liked working in Cognizant. It's mine first so glad to be part of such a good and renowned organization. Working here for the past 2.5 years where get various opportunities and project allocation in which working in execution team in EPS domain on Manhattan with a us based client as an offshore team and through it was wonderful.

Dislikes

As such no major issues I faced but ya as an organisation they can come up with some more fun activities and can work more for employees team building strength.

I joined as a fresher and I think it's one of the best companies out there to join as a fresher. If you're billable, you'll also get promoted to Associate in 2 years. Okayish WLB in my case.

Dislikes

Was in an enhancement project, so didn't get to learn much as an Abinitio Developer.
