Pros

An extremely employee friendly organization, which does not believe in thrusting opinions on others , rather than works on the policy of inclusion. Good opportunities within the company, employees get time off to participate in training programs & personal chores...salary is not bad either..they continued to pay incentive even during the downturn.

Cons

Somehow folks running the show believe all IIM's & management grads are the best managers, most managers are high on intellectual quotient, but their ability to connect with people at an employee level continues to draw flak from within.

Pros

It was a much needed check in a time of need

Cons

Management seemed uneducated. I dnt know about cognizant as a whole but their eligibility department needs help. They focus on the things that do no matter. They were at risk of losing this contract, so now it’s whatever they client says, they do…no push back including making us do disability cases, that we had no previous knowledge of. In the beginning I was getting OT like crazy. Then they stopped it talking about it wasn’t in there budget, and at times when we needed someone to work/stay late. They are not consistent and the other employees there, are looking for other positions, too. Not to mention, myself and another employee were the only ones there for the longest. It’s a mess.
