Likes

Worst company, hell lot of discrimination between India and Manila. Management is worst and just care about how to loot money from client and warm their own pockets. No work life balance, worst of its kind.

Dislikes

Everything nothing good, they don't give you salary as what you do, no holiday, you need to work in india holiday and you need to work in US holiday as well. Management only do back hitching here. Don't ever join team under any philippians specially Joy Mendoza she is worst of her kind.

...nsfer, incentives etc. Where employee will claims money for their official work. Only leadership people are enjoying their life with greater salary package and their earnings. Current CEO is taking more pkg but gives very poor hike to employee like 1-2%. Market is poor for junior level employee but leadership are enjoying.

Dislikes

All of the above

The office culture and the environment to learn is the best part of working at Cognizant. The colleagues, specially peers, too are very accommodating and helpful and this applies to all the teams I worked for in Cognizant.

Dislikes

Very poor compensation and benefits policy. The promotion cycle is very shady and it invites politics. It should be made transparent.

CTS provides a good work life balance and decent salary. All other things depends on the type of project which you got.

Dislikes

As a fresher you will be getting support projects , so be aware before choosing any project.

Cognizant has its challenges as a workplace. While there are learning opportunities, the work environment and work-life balance heavily depend on the project, which can make the experience unpredictable. Overall, it’s not the most rewarding place to work.

Dislikes

The salary is low, promotions take forever, and the work culture isn’t great. It really depends on the project, but overall, it’s not the best experience.
