Cognizant Automation Test Lead salaries in Hyderabad / Secunderabad

Likes

The only thing which I like about cognizant is , which give lot of opportunity to upskill on latest technologies

Dislikes

10 hours working time . Least competative salary and compensation HR doesn't respond your queries on and on multiple follow ups you get a response. No proper communication to employees if it is related salary and benefits

Likes

Work Life Balance is because you will get enough time. Job Security is there because 60 days of bench period and everyone get enough time and ample amount of opportunity to look for assignment. People are supportive at ground level

Dislikes

Politics, Favoritism. Very Poor compensation as per market. Only focus on US onsite opportunities although lots of politics behind that. No career growth also very rigid and poor management

Likes

1. Skill development 2. Work life balance (depends on project & manager) 3. Hybrid model (only for those who are allocated to project if the project wants hybrid otherwise typical 5 day work)

Dislikes

1. Carrer growth🤧 2. Salary hikes ( 4 percent for 5 ⭐ 😮‍💨) 3. Less projects for freshers. Most of the freshers will be on bench or be non billable without work for more than 1.5 years. Then force them to give up if they are still not billable😴. 4. Relocation: This is one the worst thing in the company, If you are working in your desired city it's good. But, most of the times you may have ODC in your city but still they call you/force you to relocate to CHENNAI otherwise you should put the papers, which is one of the worst cities in India to live with respect to language, weather, food, pgs/flats availability, which is subjected to cyclones every year and you will struck in the middle.
