Pros

1. If someone want to enjoy instead of learning or doing work then it is a good place 2. Not much work so work life balance is good.

Cons

1. Not good for freshers 2. Not good for North Indians. 3. Managers do partiality while giving rating with north indians and delay their promotions also. 4. No learning opportunity. 5. Maximum support projects. 6. They randomly assign projects to freshers who complete training and don't see their qualification and skills. 7. They will assign development project to employees with ECE background or who don't want to go in development and will give support to employees with CSE/IT background.

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.
