Pros

Good relocation policy for employees hired in NA

Cons

They do not care for employees. Most of the managers have been with the company for more than 10 years and hence the position. Managers and Senior Managers do not have any powers or authority other than a say in promotions. Irony is that being a technology services company they do not spend a single dime on employee training. In short one of the worst companies you could ever work for. They take pride in being better than other crappy Indian companies like TCS, Satyam, HCL, Infosys....and this is the sad part. Anyways if you have a choice do not join this company

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.
