Work culture was good and Managers support us a lot in case of any issues or delays in the deliveries. Salary hikes were less how good you perform. Appraisals were less for the work.

Dislikes
They release from the project with some reasons and keep the existing employees on bench or ask to resign then they recruit new people. And work hours had been changed from 9 hours to 10 hours which is hectic for employees. And how much ever we work we don't get proper appraisal for the work we do.

Cognizant is good company for those who already have experience. But for freshers there are very less chances to get pure development work.
Dislikes
There is no job security. Any time management team can release you from the project. And for every next project you have to face internal interview process.
