Cognizant provides good CTC to candidates.
Dislikes
Extended working hours on almost daily basis.
Sincere employees are overburdened with work while the insincere ones just enjoy.
No time for self learning due to long working hours.
Appraisal is based on office politics and not credibility.

They offer competitive salary package. That’s all.
Dislikes
There’s no job satisfaction or personal growth. Enough toxic people up there in the management. So don’t expect any support. It’s all about billing. Also you need to complete a ton of courses and most of them are irrelevant or obsolete, so it just eat your valuable time. Most of the time we have to spend our personal time to do all these since there will be project deadlines.

Its not a great place to work after Francis left from Organization. Work life imbalance, hike and promotion are very worst. Leadership wont follow HR policy like transfer, incentives etc. Where employee will claims money for their official work. Only leadership people are enjoying their life with greater salary package and their earnings. Current CEO is taking more pkg but gives very poor hike to employee like 1-2%. Market is poor for junior level employee but leadership are enjoying....Read More

They forcefully make you work for 10 hours wherein offer says 9 hours. No one during the interview let you know that.
There is no dedicated training team, you will have to learn and manage on our own
No support especially when you relocate, they will literally bring you down on your knees to reimburse the amount
No handholding for a new joiner

10 hours of work with no bonuses and no extra benefits apart from a health insurance coverage of 2.5 lakhs. There’s no annual salary increase, and if they do provide one, it will be a minimal raise of just 500 rupees per month every two years.

Unable to explore learning opportunities as there is no support from supervisors, and moving to next level takes alot of time than usual, the variable pay comes based on supervisors rating rather than ur performance and there is no BOnus, salary hike is very minimal in health care domain.
