Pros

- Learn new technologies. - Travel to different places and locations. - Travel is paid most of the time. - Sometimes you get a good manager.

Cons

- Hard to get promoted and get your salary structure revised. - The company is very offshore-driven and seems to care more about its Indian employees than any other. - Management is not supportive of your career development plans. They will keep you in a project even when you don't want to be there.

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.
