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

No work life balance and additional salary benefits. But there is job security since cognizant has many clients under its belt and they would place you somewhere you fit into.
