Cognizant reviews

Cognizant has demoted people from their positions of mentors, got with a regular process in the past, without any formal written communication but just with an oral one. I think that'is illegal. Employees are very disappointed and pretty angry here and are leaving the Company because they are frustrated. Targets suddenly have been increased of 10% without a bonus review and a proper communication. Moreover Top Performers in spite their recorded excellent work, engagement and interviews, are not progressing, while people not so talented that are just good friends of the important people are getting this kind of fake open positions. Top performers seem unrealistically to be punished for their good performance because are useful just for productivity purposes. Open positions are just fake. The Management is demotivating people and the metric of Quality even if apparently good, is fake and is not really in compliance with the Policy. Qcers in fact were asked from the Management a few months ago to not put many errors and to be very flexible in order to meet the SLA. The position of Qcer too then has become senseless and frustrating. Please investigate as soon as possible. GOOGLE...IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT????

The talent is hindered by traditional consulting type-A personalities (hiding in hoodies or brogues) who swagger around saying lots of deep insightful words, but deliver little and spend lots of time playing at politics to protect their jobs. Try and challenge them and you'll find yourself with a P45. If they loose a client due to incompetence, you'll also find yourself looking elsewhere. This is less a factor of the recent Cognizant takeover (which has caused typical) disruption, but a problematic leadership sub-culture that has developed over recent years. I hope it gets addressed and protected from the arrogance-driven culture that is a feature of every large consulting firm.
