Flexible timings,work culture(depends on the project though), good infrastructure and facilities.

Dislikes

Compensation,promotions are hilarious jokes here. Some of the managers(female) are false feminists. Appraisal process is the biggest flawed process in practice. No wonder Cognizant still tops employee attrition percentage(33%,which is ridiculous) this shows that the company isn't bothered to hold the employees who decide to go because the company fails to match the market standards for compensation. If employee engagement survey is take ln into consideration very strictly, the company's leaders would understand how unsatisfied its employees are, but that never happens. I'm one of the very few people who thought things would be a bit different this time at cognizant when Brian took charge but, he too is one of those leader who THINKS everything is fine, looking down from his helicopter window. If you are assigned to any ADM practice, understand that it's time to leave.

...ou will be fine, if you comply CTS rules then you have nothing to worry about. You will get hike every year, based on the company's turnover it may vary but mostly good compensation you will get. Work culture is very good, CTS support women's like no other company(Gender equality is amazing), gives priority to people who brings valuable ideas. One of the best IT company to work.

Dislikes

CTS should improve their cafeteria and gym contractors.

Competitive platform for professional and personal development in terms of skills

Dislikes

Compensation is decent but growth is slow. The work pressure is high. Sometimes I have to work for 14- 18 hours straight in a day as I have to attend client calls in the evening and sometimes late in to night. Also it would be helpful if there is onjob training ( we have options to personally learn and develop our skills via various courses provided) . On job training will reduce the time required for the freshers to adapt the new environment

Cognizant has its strengths, but I feel there's room for improvement in several areas beyond just salary. For me, the overall experience hasn’t aligned with my expectations.

Dislikes

In my personal experience, I have faced challenges with the lack of qualified managers and team leads. For instance, in our team, we work from different locations, and our team lead rarely conducted regular team huddles. Even when I, as a senior, tried to take responsibility and initiate meetings, he would often find reasons to stop or postpone them. Over the course of the year, he connected with the team only four or five times, which was far from adequate for effective team collaboration. Additionally, my manager has been disconnected from the team for over a year. When he first joined during a critical transformation period, he did not take the time to observe the team members' expertise, interests, or long-term goals. This lack of involvement left us feeling unsupported and undervalued. One major concern was the cultural bias I experienced. Being from Chennai and a Tamil speaker, I noticed a clear difference in how I and others like me were treated compared to team members from Hyderabad, particularly Telugu-speaking colleagues. This disparity in treatment created a sense of alienation and made it difficult to feel like a cohesive part of the team.
