The exposure I got in Cognizant is quite embracing. The people having 7-8 years experience switched from other service to Cognizant are not even technically sound enough what Cognizant folks could do in 2-3 years of experience. Cognizant will give you chance to take ownership. The culture and learning curve is excellent in Cognizant. Although everything depends on project but still Cognizant gives you opportunity to build leadership qualities....Read More

Dislikes

Incentive and hikes were quite good until 2023 end. After that appraisal percent and promotions rules becomes very stringent.

Its completely dependent on the Manager you are reporting to, but ideally the evironment is not great. The senior managment doesn't know how to lead by example. They are trying to enfore work, they are in frenzy

Dislikes

Senior management isn't great. They are just reacting to different situations, but ideally no proper governance.

Liked the policies that is shown publicly or that a employee will feel initially but later when employees faces problems there is no guidelines and proper accountability.

The internal policies and politics are very bad. The managers are too arrogant. There is no way the employee can provide appraisal to the managers. There should be a appraisal process for Managers from employees as some companies are having.
