What is the hiring process like at Cognizant?

some accounts provide work from home options

low salary, messy hiring process as well as poor management, don't care about employers, don't provide work equipment to home (Must be picked up and dropped at facility if laid off/resign), they don't hear employees feedback whatsoever, 5% or less grow opportunities.

Great team members and always willing to support on projects.

Middle management needs to do their jobs, bench time is stressfull and hiring managers are worthless and still get paid. Company only cares about their own growth and not the employees. Pay was low from the beginning and didn't change much even though training was completed and achieved.

they had a good interview panel

the hiring process was a bit slow

Good Work Culture and Work-life balance

Very slow hiring process for freshers, DOJs get delayed by months eve after getting Offer letter!

Good hiring process, good interviewers.

Stipend was partially provided, and too many tests and rules.

- remote work - azure/aws/gcp certifications - 26 days PTO

- no promotion possibility (promotions are based on demand not on performance and achievements) - below industry average wages - 1-1.5% per year or no hikes for the last 3 years (1.8% for top performers) - no performance bonuses - lack of transparency in the yearly evaluation process, the ratings are “adjusted” by the management after sent for final approval - they expect you to overachieve without any incentive from their part - micro management and toxic work environment on some projects
