There is no company level interaction. They will hire you, once you in no one will interact with you from cognizant side. Full time you have to work with client. No manager interaction , no one is there with you if something happens to you. There is concept of Home manager and business manager, both are there for no reason. They will not help in any case. If you have problem they will hear you once you ping them and no action.What ever you perform in client side even you are best or worst hike will happen on average. No impact of working hard or best performance, your hike will be very average. I prefer NOT TO JOIN THIS COMPANY. They will offer 2-3 lakh extra from market and due to those 2-3 lakh you have to suffer allot. NO JOB SECURITY any time they put you on BENCH and from bench you yourself have to search the project and if not you are fired. To join this company was my worst experience and decision. Please dont join for the sake of extra 2-3 lakh of ctc…

...ant to say DO NOT join this company. You will have to switch again in 1 year. They will give you 2-3 lakh extra and joining bonus also and joining bonus will have 1 year bond. So you will wait for 1 year to leave this company. I want to talk more about this but please stay away. They will not consider your tech stack whole assigning you a project. I was java angular react developer with microservice exp also. If client need you to work on linux or python developer you have to work because you are tagged to client and cognizant will not help you here.

...anagement to ask any thing. I was a labor hired by cognizant given to 3rd party. Only salary message i got from cognizant nothing else. Client suddenly ended contract and then cognizant lined up my few interviews i had to crack any of those sudden interviews without preparing, you have to clear. Its hard to suffer in this situation. Ever 6-8 month you have to change your project. what ever you perform in project and worked hard to client does not mean anything as contract ends and no one knows about your task or work done. I suggest not to join this company till you dont have other options. It will Lure you with 3-4 lakh extra , this is what my mistake was,

Allot of thing, Cognizant management don't know anything what is happening in client side. Bad luck to me was my manager from cognizant side was also new he dont knw any process or anything if i asked any help from him. Not recommended to join.

...ith. But I should say it also purely depends on the team which we have put into. The salary is higher for freshers and lateral compared to other companies.

Dislikes

We cannot expect good ratings and promotion even if we deserve it. As they ask you to work 10 hrs continuously, you will not have time to develop your skills.

No salary issues and if you get proper project and colleague your are good to go. Every 6 months there is a skill up process you can utilise to improve your self.

Dislikes

PM not having technical knowledge and worst experience in support project . Talent management team not having proper tacking they didn't care about your skills match with your project. Hike is also low always 3 ratings for support projects. There is no straight point of contact to enquire anything. Cognizant not tracking if you are extending time in your client projects it's depends on your project and higher level.
