With the changes happening at CTS there are multiple opportunities to explore in terms of role, though growth options are limited within the co. with budget cuts and scaled promotions. Hikes have also been inconsistent at senior levels and very minimal in %. Lot of scope to learn and develop and leverage it elsewhere. Teams are very collaborative by nature, no major hierarchy culture. Onsite opportunities earlier prior to covid used to be easier if you knew managers. Good work life balance.

Dislikes

Compensation is lower and growth very slow. Now with the organizational changes, slow to change and process adoption. Mentorship at Manager level lacking and not outcome driven. Acknowledgement from stakeholders disregarded during promotions, promotions manager driven. Lot of skill enablement opportunities within the concern but no management drive on completion.

What I like most about cognizant is their toxic work culture and politics. To be honest, if there were jobs offers I wud have left cognizant, unfortunately my career is losing grip because of Emi's and rent pay. They just only pay you 20k for 4 years, no promotions, no awards, no recognition and no growth. And they ( Home Managers) fake all their policies and they humiliate people in front of all the teammates and colleagues, likewise in front of 40-50 group ppls if there is work done 80/100 % and if we ask about wholesome variables pay and incentives, they forced you to go to cognizant portal and give resignation. I have every screenshot of humiliation and disrespectful and cheating of my managers and other project heads

One thing I dislike about these companies are there is no guarantee of job security...they will pick 10/15 employees and moved them to different project within the company (internal movement)..which I think is a part of business but needs to be reviewed....
