Pros

Recruitments from best institutes - IIT, IIM. Intellectual colleagues, Hard working environment, Go-getter attitude amongst majority of the folks across all levels.

Cons

Since the acquisition by Cognizant Technology (CTSH), the "body shopping" culture has permeated. Ex-Senior Management of marketRx has taken a back-seat and is busy counting their payout $$$. Some folks are in senior positions simply due to nepotism and should be fired ASAP!

Pros

Its one of a few companies, which is still posting good growth despite the economic slowdown. Hence from job security perspective, in the current situation, it does make sense to work for Cognizant.

Cons

Management is really dictatorial. Vital funations like appraisals and salary hikes are not at all transparent and process oriented. Depends too much on personal relationships rather than performance.
