Pros

- Good work culture - Brand name - Cognizant treats employees nicely (for e-g cabs and guards are provided for females working in late night shifts) - Onsite opportunities - Flexible working hours - Initiatives such as 'Cognorators' (a weekly to help the employees improve their public speaking abilities)

Cons

Along with recreation rooms, playgrounds for outdoor games such as cricket/ basketball etc should be provided in order to encourage the employees to be physically fit. This in turn will also lead to mental fitness and employees performing well.

Pros

It was a much needed check in a time of need

Cons

Management seemed uneducated. I dnt know about cognizant as a whole but their eligibility department needs help. They focus on the things that do no matter. They were at risk of losing this contract, so now it’s whatever they client says, they do…no push back including making us do disability cases, that we had no previous knowledge of. In the beginning I was getting OT like crazy. Then they stopped it talking about it wasn’t in there budget, and at times when we needed someone to work/stay late. They are not consistent and the other employees there, are looking for other positions, too. Not to mention, myself and another employee were the only ones there for the longest. It’s a mess.
