Pros

There are some nice people, HR is very good if you are unfortuantely enough to have to use them. COmpensation is good; stable industry; stable company with large share of market.

Cons

Immediate management avoids issues, has no time, does not live up to promises for support and training; a lot of individual performers who do nto work as team. many employees have been here 13 - 25 years and are set in their ways. Technology is old and losing ground to newer and more agile providers using better technology solutions.

Pros

It was a much needed check in a time of need

Cons

Management seemed uneducated. I dnt know about cognizant as a whole but their eligibility department needs help. They focus on the things that do no matter. They were at risk of losing this contract, so now it’s whatever they client says, they do…no push back including making us do disability cases, that we had no previous knowledge of. In the beginning I was getting OT like crazy. Then they stopped it talking about it wasn’t in there budget, and at times when we needed someone to work/stay late. They are not consistent and the other employees there, are looking for other positions, too. Not to mention, myself and another employee were the only ones there for the longest. It’s a mess.
