Pros

Ample opportunity to grow, management is transparent to some extent. One may expect proper guidance from your supervisor. Most of the Peers are co-ordial and cooperative. Very competent, helpful and hardworking offshore team, with well defined processes in place. As company is growing at a fast and steady pace, there are ample opportunity to grow, learn new technologies and getting challenging job assignments are easier.

Cons

Projects are heavily dependent on local/account manager's capabilities and personal relationship with client. No quantitative assessment process in place. Assessment's depends solely on your immediate boss. Good work and a cajoling (to your boss) can lead to quick promotions.

Pros

Great people with passion to grow the business and be the best.

Cons

Focus is on rapid growth, but the path to that growth is not well defined by corporate guidance... especially translation to account or service offering strategy. Most of the growth within the marketplace seems to be organic and opportunistic.

Pros

Good benefits plan in place. If you are in the begining of your career, this might be a good place to learn as they have variety o projects. However fi you are mid career and trying to balance work/life, then Cognizant does not give you much options. Once your project is over, irrespective of you like it or not, they might relocate you to some place else or ask you to leave!

Cons

Low Pay! Slow promotion cycles! Location constraints. See other sections also
