      Pros

      1. Independence 2. Entrepreneurial Spirit 3. Energy The management needs to be more open and communicative when it comes to bad news. Management does not project accurately all the capabilities it has. People on the street still compare the older management to the newer one unfairly. Not sure of the impact on the strett. IWorking in cognizant is very informal. Sometimes it needs to have some structure. Cognizant does foster a sense of community and makes people proud of being a Cognizant Employee. People take lot of pride in their work and

      The current President is an impassioned leader who truly cares about the people who work here. He has shifted the culture to a more professional environment with an emphasis on transparency. There's a fresh focus on developing internal talent and providing opportunities for growth. Great place; nice people-- making a difference in healthcare!

      Cons

      Pros

      Great environment to work in. Financially sound and stable. Mentorship development Great work-life balance and opportunity for advancement. Cross team/department collaboration. The Executive Briefing Center has a powerful message and efficient process to obtain/close and retain customers through a diligent carefully planned out experience.

      Cons

      Passive agressive Human Resources Department Outdated policies for employees Stressful expectations with little reward. The location of the main office is not very thought out. In the middle of no where. Long drive for new/existing clients. It's a very long commute for employees who are not in the DTC. Inability to uphold their work/life balance through demonstration. They say they want you have a balance but when you actually have one then they revert to outdated and poorly managed processes that make you feel like you need to have a life or death excuse to take time off.
