Pros

Flexible work arrangements are granted. Benefits are competitive to the market. There is an element of a fast-paced and dynamic environment.

Cons

NO opportunities for career development. The company claims that "here at cognizant you grow", but has nothing to show for it. The company is dominated by Indian nationals and thus, the company culture can be unfriendly toward U.S. citizens.

Pros

Health benefits day one. Access to resources and knowledge on the company owned product, great opportunity to grow skills and network with others.

Cons

No 401k match, understaffed so worked long hours without any recognition or future incentives, unable to easily get approved to take vacation days earned due to backlog. Project specific cons: No time to take advantage of training opportunities that exist due to nature of project, not willing to pay for needed senior resources that doomed the project, no accountabilty of management, no culture of employee empowerment and respect on this project. Hoping project and managgers were an anomally, but do all you can to know the particular project and people you are considering committing to up front!
