No hike, no job security, no skill development, no easy transportation.even if you learn new technologies they will ask for experience and make you work in technology which you already know.if you do "jing jack" you will get everything else you will be cornered and make you to think resigning is best than staying there

They give good package while joining

Dislikes

Their talent supply team is useless. When you are on bench, they won't contact you or try to place you in some project. It becomes completely your responsibility to search a project for yourself

Dislikes

Cognizant pays lesser as compare to the current market. Cognizant should match the compensation incase associate is ready to take more responsibilities. t is beneficial by considering the knowledge associate has gained in his/her earlies tenure. The new associate takes time to gain the same knowledge, it's related to processes/ application knowledge.
