What is it like working at Cognizant?

Great Place to Work.
Senior Project Engineer in Hyderabad:
Pros: Professionalism and desire to grow continuously, transparent CEO communications.
Cons: No much scope if IJP, direct managers always depends on their managers for employees decisions.
Hiring process is infuriating.
Software Developer in Sterling Heights:
Cons: I was denied a direct hire position for a six months because of my lack of a college degree, despite being capable of doing the same work as other employees with a formal education. After a year and half the same is still true.

Good Life with limited growth.
Software Engineer in London:
Pros: Company culture is good, Great HR Policies no manager can take their team members for granted on everyday life, so you can live peacefully regardless of how bad your manager is.
Cons: Managers are not new thinkers and hardly coach and help for the growth and will be huge bottleneck for the next level growth by giving shockingly low ratings. The ratings once given that's it, there is no review or appeal.
