Pros

none. No benefits and fake Company values.

Cons

Cognizant has demoted people from their positions of mentors, got with a regular process in the past, without any formal written communication but just with an oral one. I think that'is illegal. Employees are very disappointed and pretty angry here and are leaving the Company because they are frustrated. Targets suddenly have been increased of 10% without a bonus review and a proper communication. Moreover Top Performers in spite their recorded excellent work, engagement and interviews, are not progressing, while people not so talented that are just good friends of the important people are getting this kind of fake open positions. Top performers seem unrealistically to be punished for their good performance because are useful just for productivity purposes. Open positions are just fake. The Management is demotivating people and the metric of Quality even if apparently good, is fake and is not really in compliance with the Policy. Qcers in fact were asked from the Management a few months ago to not put many errors and to be very flexible in order to meet the SLA. The position of Qcer too then has become senseless and frustrating. Please investigate as soon as possible. GOOGLE...IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT????

Pros

Cognizant can be a great place to work at. You have to be self-motivated and driven. You won't often be given a script on how to do your job well. But if you are willing to search for new opportunities, you will find success.

Cons

Just like many other tech companies, layoffs are happening all the time. This often brings many projects to a complete halt. Management never communicates when someone is laid off. And when they are laid off, they often never back fill positions, leaving existing team members working the equivalent of three jobs at once. Most teams there are skeleton crews, ensuring that they cannot reach their full potential.
