Nothing I liked. But had to continue for 6 years due to some commitments
Dislikes
No work life balance. Manager/ seniors are very bad at being emphatic . Very bad at giving recognition for work or appraisals
Specially for security testing there is no work pressure at all and also in security testing service line promotions happens frequently. You can get on-site opportunities once you become senior associate but there is no scope for learning new things
Dislikes
The scope of services is less. Lack of talented people makes the team weak.

The management does not encourage and motivate the hard work people and requires more proper appraisal mechanism since everyone who worked and not working gets same level of appraisal and promotion..

As per my role in Cognizant, I received rapid growth in the role that I play in the company, being just a fresher. Aomething which others can only dream of. That's what I like most about Cognizant
Dislikes
The promotions and the compensations are low, no matter how much one grows role wise. It doesn't matter if the senior management such as VPs have a visibility to you. You will get promotion or hike only by the company policies and guidelines set out in accordance to the number of years of experience. No highlighting of exceptional perfirmers.
Work Details
It's quite exciting at times and challenging too. A consultant role at Cognizant is really exciting.
