Cognizant Project Associate Reviews

Likes

I like management and salary structure and environment.

Dislikes

In one year, I observed When managers and team leads don't understand the requirements and simply say "just do it," it becomes challenging for developers to proceed with the development work.

In my current project there is some flexibility of work but when compared to other projects it is hell

Dislikes

There are many points 1. promotion criteria which is worst in all mnc. 2. salary hike is negligible. 3. even there is no such activities happened which makes you motivated through out the year.

Canteens and cafes are good. Job security is nice.

Dislikes

Client first approach always followed. Agile methodology or Sprint planning is often overlooked to meet client demands. Work-life balance is not followed. Extended work hours is a very common practice and its considered normal for Cognizant.
