Pros

1.There would be no delay in salaries. 2.They will make no stones unturned to make u technology friendly & help u know how to work. 3.They make pretty good effort to gel well with colleagues specially ur manager.

Cons

1.They literally dont treat u like human beings like I was in IT/IS which demands u to be flexible in all the shifts,so while we were learning work they may expect u to be available again at the office right aftr 6hrs after ur shift gets over. 2. they make the atmosphere competitive when u r a newbie,which u can feel harassed as they scold black and blue when u dont get it.

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.
