The work culture is employee friendly. The policy are good for a relaxed work environment. There are many platforms for learning opportunities. The travel opportunities are more in IT projects. Lot of emphasis on Automation in Large Projects.
Dislikes
Very Poor Pay Master. C&B policies are unclear and defies logic. Over the last few years, leadership has a disconnect with bottom level employees. Highly cost and margin driven since 2017. Lack of mentoring of mid-level managers

Compensation is good apart from tier 2 cities..
Dislikes
Lack of opportunity is you are not willing to move to different locations
Company is really good for trained professionals and hard working people who are ready to take challenges.
Dislikes
Cannot recall anything which i would say i don't like. Have worked with 3 different projects in last 2 years and think people are really co-operative and helping, no one points you out till the time you are doing you job properly. My Personal opinion is that growth is little slow, work life balance is ok. No Free food, No Free Transport(for general Shifts)relocation payment is very low(personal experience). onsite opportunities are really less....Read More

Many employees have said that cognizant offers a variety of great benefits. As an employee, you get full medical coverage, full dental coverage, full vision coverage, and decent paid time off. benefits are a good way for business to take care of their employees and boost morale. This is important because if a company's employees are taken care of the employees will take care of the company.

Well it's a very good place to loose your mind and and peace. With the best 10 hours work culture and no benefits. And the best thing is the ratings they give depends on their personal choice and mood and the best part is once the rating is given it cannot be disputed. And unexpected promotions which will be given to others. Eg if A works hard B will get the promotion. Based on favouritism.
Dislikes
Hmmm. .... Everything. There is no help nor there is any support all are busy with their targets and targets and targets.

Not a good transport facility service. Job security is also not there. Very short term projects. In most of the projects, the case is like one person has to do job of 3 people. If there is requirement of 3 people then they will assign all those task to single person. In terms of hike, even if we work harder and show our appreciations still they will say budget issue. No proper growth here.
One common thing in all IT sector is that you will be valuable only if there is some work. If not then no one really cares. You are on your own. So be ready for anything guys.. be prepared always to crack interviews at any time....Read More
