Design culture is good and is only limited to the Design department. In the age of digital transformation, they are yet to adapt the Design Thinking mindset organization wide.

Dislikes

Pay is horrible and old employees are exploited with extremely low pay, No work-life balance, policies are worst, and Review and feedback mechanism is just for the sake of it and adds no value. Ratings are predecided irrespective of performance. I guess the Rating system is flawed in the majority of companies and should be discarded.

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....

Now during current project my so called manager is psycho. Here in cognizant manager also do coding but he is like only I have to do everything and he just wants credit for it. Even to other squads he is like only he is doing work. He oftenly insulted me and two other team mates. I talked with my home manager but no benefit. Only you have to suffer in that scenario.
