Cognizant Executive Trainee salaries in India

Likes

i think its good company to work for. does have politics. limited growth opportunity due to politics. there are few cunning employees in upper level with less process knowledge who manipulate the process according to their own way and the one who corrects them, doesn't have the chance to growth and ultimately quality dips when the person actually should be awarded for finding the glitch.

Dislikes

company is running in loss. hiring, firing and hiring has become its new policy. no salary hike. half knowledge managers. dont know who put them in the first place on that position. no surprise why the company is running in loss.

Stability is good. Though in the ongoing global recession, many of my co-workers had to leave projects because of project ramp down and did not get any other projects. Instead of recruiting employees from bench in other projects they are hiring more from people outside.

Dislikes

Appraisal is bad. So joining with low salary does not help much in the long run, better to switch.
