Pros

It is a good company for short time job, where to get experience or temporal while’s finishing your skilling up personal projects

Cons

It is not recommended for long term jobs, because it is a fully vendor client focus company. Because the most important is the client, you’ll be required to put your personal life, family, commodities and goals aside if any of those interfiere with client satisfaction. Sadly, it is quite common that employees feel that company does not care about their well being and impact of decisions on their life’s. So if you are willing to put everything aside for your client then it is a good place for you.

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.
