Good salary hike and overall had a good career growth. In any organization it depends on the set of people you are working with. If your team and management is good then things will fall in place and you will have a good work life balance and career growth.

Before 2016 Cognizant used to be a good company to work in, not any more

Dislikes

... assume there will be no promotion and salary hike for another 5 years, atleast. The CTC you will get includes variable pay, which you will never ever get 100%. As an example if your CTC is 10 lakhs which includes 3 lakhs variable pay, you can safely assume your CTC is actually 9 lakhs. For senior folks, more bad news; CTC includes stocks which is going down exponentially. So if your CTC is 40 lakhs that includes 10 lakhs worth of stocks and the variable pay (as mentioned above), then your CTC is actually around 30 lakhs, but you will end up paying tax for 40 lakhs. Be very careful.
