Cognizant Technology Solutions Reviews

Cons

Promotions are harder nowadays at onsite due to a large no of employees competing with each other. GC has been stopped which is a big drawback for many who want to work a little more than 6 years in H1B. They have introduced new methodology of appraisal which is very difficult for many to achieve because of the mandatory certifications which need to be completed.

Internal competitions between various departments for similar kind of project/work sometimes harm the company and it's associates.

Extensive use of legacy and outdated technologies.

Cons

Work harder not smarter...more people v better supporting technology a con. Administrivia keeps you in the weeds. Documentation for documentation sake; not a lot done with the data.
