Pros

Better Growth rate compared to others

Cons

At least in kolkata Region most of the projects are Support or Testing Projects. Very less no. of Dev projects. CSP is the worst department in Cognizant. Reject Offer if they put you in CSP. Managers more interested in Flirting and taking Coffee Breaks. They have all the powers in their hand. You have to butter them in order to get good appraisal.
