Pros

The engineering is on high lever in Cognizant Netcentric and one has and opportunity to work with really great professionals on the projects. Also a lot of people who it's pleasure and fun to work with.

Cons

It's really hard to get raise or promotion. Even though the process is pretty clear, one knows well what to do in order to get eligible for promotion, however, once told he "will" be promoted, it then can take up to a year for it to actually happen and even that is not guaranteed. One is told to wait a lot and that there is nothing one can do about it. Overall, the salary is not great, there is also no great benefits.

Pros

Can’t think of anything honestly

Cons

Was benched for 6 months because let’s face it, no one is going with Cognizant for anything other than data and IT infrastructure work. No chance for analytics. Was then pressured by BD team to take a project completely irrelevant to my career. No one cares about your growth. Not at all surprised given the company culture and environment. And bonus one year was €300 after taxes, a joke

Pros

Good salary and remote projects

Cons

Most employees are offshore and they are not very collaborative. There’s no team spirit and support, but constant struggle
