It used to be a Good Company long back, however under new management its probably worst company to work for. Mandatory 10 hours work policy, zero work life balance, Poor compensation, Hire and Fire attitude, Extremely long working hours and huge work load, and Management politics are just a few to mention in my disliking. Cognizant dont care for their people and only thing matter to them is profit margin. Find a better place to work

10 hour mandatory work hours. Zero Worklife balance Poor Compensation No salary revision in mid senior level for almost last 4 years Extended work hours and too much stress Management politics and favoritism gets priority over talents poor and shady appraisal process zero job security and mandatory fire if you get released or your project ramp down practically no bench policy to optimize cost.

If you remain too good on a domain, likely you will get trapped into it and not allowed to learn horizontal skills. So keeping a balance and relationship to horizontal people are important in any large project centric organization.
