Nice people, but low, hourly pay & bad work-life balance.

- People are nice and accepting - Free refreshments in the office
Desventajas
- Antiquated office-first culture. - Makes office employees that don't even collaborate on any projects together report to an office in the farthest corner of Northeast Austin where you don't engage with anyone. - Low, hourly pay. I would not have accepted regressing back to hourly pay and making under $50k if I had any other option. - PTO restrictions are asinine. PTO days have to accrue over time and forget about asking for a week-long vacation. Office employees with non-essential jobs should be able to take off whenever they want. - Cognitive dissonance when you have to report to an office every day, but the Google employees you report to get to work from home indefinitely. - Tasks and projects are not always clear. Lots of times you will find yourself trying to find things to do. - TERRIBLE work-life balance (depending on seniority, department, and position) - PTO and Sick days are classified as the same kind of leave.

All the Joys of the Job Hunt, None of the Benefits

Absolutely none, they provide zero support and zero contact throughout your time at the company. The only pros come from if you get placed on a project that is reasonable.
Desventajas
When you are on a project, you might as well not even work at Cognizant for all the guidance they give you. Everything is bogged down in hundreds (I do mean hundreds) of Cognizant specific apps and terminology that somehow they expect you to know and retain, including VERY IMPORTANT pieces of information that gets lost in the sludge. When you're off a project, you are "benched", where you have 35 days to find a new project before they terminate you. Except, they never have a human being tell you this, they just send it in a very benign email that gets lost in the HUNDREDS of emails they send you every day. One would think that with information as important as that, they would reach out to you and make sure that you are aware of that EXTREMELY IMPORTANT fact, but that would require a level of reason and humanity that I fear is just not present at Cognizant.
