CTS is good..okay to work
Dislikes
There is lack of support from HR depth. It only comes into picture when giving a warning, exit news, putting people on bench, any bad report ..no support for bench employees, listens to operations teams being bais. NO decision of its own as a dept.
Operations sr managers use insulting languages, they invite pandoras box of questions from clients unnecessarily, asks unwanted data to be pulled, misbehaved using unethical language..lay off employees basis on their personal choice etc.. Need a strong leadership not just managers..no growth opportunities, managers stop talking to employees whom they do not like. No exposure to enhancing skills, align unnecessary courses which is heavy time consuming. Targets are to accomplish managers own goals to get salary hikes and promotions..unnecessary decks to bevoreoared knowing the client dies not talk but the deck ..at all.....Read More

They don't event respect contract employee even though they are senior's than on roll employees.
If they any lag in your task they won't even inform you or discuss with you 1 to 1, straight away they will ask you to leave not even considering about the employee life.

No work-life balance. you need to work like a machine no matter day or night. Still gets very less hikes and that too after too much delays. If your project is completed so as you are. You'll be removed from org. On investment on employee engagement and no proper promotion and hikes.

There is no recognition for work, performance ratings are mostly average even after outperforming and fulfilling all the parameters set by supervisor, one can not expect promotion if they have joined as an experienced candidate for atleast 5-6 years even after being eligible

Opportunity to learn - since people are leaving everyday !
Dislikes
Most of the senior mgmt in cognizant are old , stubborn, egoistic and obnoxious people .
They refused to work in teams, they refused to work at par with young associates and they have a very capitalistic mentality - they won't read mails and ask for updated on weekends !
The tools used in CTS are outdated and buggy making the work very very slow
