Mine is not a biased review. I like Cognizant in all aspects. The only company which is hiring people during this crunch. Atleast the group where I work is transparent. My daily work does not suck. It is aligned with my personal goals.

Even we are facing the same problem @ CTS - no Administration guys will hear our transportation issues. Drivers used to be very rude and will pick-up their friends on the way and drop them near to their office - which should not be questioned by any employees who are travelling in the same Bus. Very conveniently - we have been put in Navalur... that is very much convenient for the Drivers. No Forum... no one would listen...

Them not laying off people is only temporary. These folks are wolves in sheep's clothing. Never know when something fast might come and hit your face. They will definitely start laying off people not in 10s or 100s, but in 1000s.

So far the company is not affected by the meltdown and not laid off any of its employees. Good sign to be associated with such a company.

The technology track sounds promising. They have a good amount of geeks in tech track who can drive things and make the project a great success. This is one of the few companies which has a good amount of growth potetntial for tech savvy people.

Not happy being here. They laid off my sister when she joined cognizant a few hours ago primarily because they were not doing good. They are going through a bleak period and there has been rumours that there might be a large scale retrenchment even this time around. Inspite of that, I believe they have started hiring very bad people. Some of the people in HR are pretty bad. There was on person who was sacked from photon (the company getting bad reviews everywhere) joining cognizant. Don't they do background checks. It is time they did something and ensured that they had the right people on board. That was their main strength and I hope they realize that.

Great tax saving schemes. Good career path for techies as well as non techies. The yearly g ifts like IPOD's really boost up the morale of employees.

I always respoect a company like CTS. They have stringent BG checks which keeps the bad coders and people who fake out of their technical stable. The management is very transparent and stays focussed towards their goals.

In the present situation it is better to stick around in any of these companies like CTS,HCL. Again opinion differs. On the whole I respect CTS and like to work here. I am getting enought technical exposure which I expected so no complaints.

Not really a nice place to work in. It was a fantastic place to be in 3 years ago. But standards have dropped abysmally low. They have started hiring very bad programmers who churn out bad code time and again. Working environment is also not that good off late. Better join organizations like infosys, tcs.

Good place to work in. Rewards could be a bit more, but it is ok. Once you perform, you automatically start making more money and your work is recognised by everyone. The working environment is very good and the management is also clear about the direction it is taking. Overall an average place to be working in.
