Pros

If you are in India and want to get out of there, this place is good.

Cons

Everything else is terrible - people are recruited with no proper screening and quality of employees sucks. Almost everyone has a sense of entitlement, esp. people coming from no name enginnering colleges and getting placed because these companies hire indiscriminately. They cannot string together complete sentences in english without making grammatical mistakes. The only people with more than 10 yrs work ex that are left here are people who cannot make it elsewhere. this is one of the companies where people stop coding and move on to excel sheets as soon as they become a team lead. Pathetic - no talent at middle levels.

Pros

US Green Card processing. The only reason attrition rate is less in the US for Cognizant is because most employees are on an L1 VISA.

Cons

Inherent 'am the boss' attitude of managers. Absolutely no reception to innovation from junior employees. Very poor pay.
