I had worked with Cognizant till march 2020.I had resigned since I had to travel to my husbands place but due to the pandemic I coulnot go.Before resigning also I had approached to all leadership teams for a project opportunity at UK but I didn't get a response neither from the hr too. Can I get back my job since I couldnot travel.

Dislikes

First of all there is nothing to dislike. But especially it would have been better if HR/Management had considered or focused the issue of salary structure. I can remember that, when I had promoted from Associate to Sr. Associate then my salary was hike only Rupees - 71 (in words - seventy one rupees only). Job security was very low of that particular project which is a main and first essential matter of an employee and another thing is that, there having some politics/partiality, however it's depends on human mind or nature and particularly project specific. Apart from that everything was well and good.
