Pros

Work like balance is relatively good. Global travel opportunities. If you are a native Tamil, then prospects are very good. Over time processes, have matured and HR Finance and other systems are good.

Cons

Too many employees from Tamil Nadu. Employees lack quality education and communication skills are usually bad. Over time these employees have become managers who don't have quality training in management. Pay is low. Now when the clients are more demanding, managers keep failing miserably. Many are scared to move off due to deterioration on technical skills over time.

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.
