... to work on and learn. There also have good training programs from time to time. Salary wise I found it to be a little average but they would provide some opportunity to move abroad after spending some time in Cognizant. The career growth was average but not bad.

Dislikes

Salary was average. Also there was a little lack innovation. At times a rigid system. I didn't like HR, they hardly seem to ever address the concerns of employees, had very bad policy of employee retention , let many good employees go easily.

...you will come across all IT companies. Just learn to survive, upskill and excel. Do not depend on your job or salary, have multiple streams of income without moonlighting and switch jobs whenever you get a good opportunity. Work for your own success not for the company.
