Pros

-Tons of free food and beverages (but not from Cognizant) - Support from the team when something happen

Cons

- Not Flexible working time - Bad management and the worst one is on the PT team. - No motivation from management to work - Work under pressure - Holidays needs to be as the management wants and disproved when they want. - You can make a perfect work during 5 months and after that if you make one error you are entitled as a "Bad Worker". - No Professionalism at all - Bonus is miserable. - Salary increase is just some bucks. - Careers opportunities just after 18 months and without chances to happen

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.
