Pros

here is nothing i can suggest to any one to join this organisation at experience level,Because these people play with employee career, if they found any failure during BGV check they will fire you immediate

Cons

I have joined as senior resource ,after 2 month of joining I got a call regarding my BGV verification that your previous employment did not verified ,You have 2 days to prove your employment else will fire you, At least the company should do BGV verification before joining ,after working in company for 2 month ,if you are giving this notice atleast you should give some timeline to find some other job for employee. And if a company has been shut down in the past around 3 year earlier ,then why employee should be punished ,its company fault

Pros

Cognizant can be a great place to work at. You have to be self-motivated and driven. You won't often be given a script on how to do your job well. But if you are willing to search for new opportunities, you will find success.

Cons

Just like many other tech companies, layoffs are happening all the time. This often brings many projects to a complete halt. Management never communicates when someone is laid off. And when they are laid off, they often never back fill positions, leaving existing team members working the equivalent of three jobs at once. Most teams there are skeleton crews, ensuring that they cannot reach their full potential.
