Pros

Opportunities to get involved in other areas of work. Good health insurance. A growing company. Multiple work locations in India.

Cons

Not a good perfromance review process. People need to do almost 2 fulltime jobs (One with client exceeding all client expectations and other doing all internal cognizant related administrative work, assisting and exceeding all the management's expectation) even to be considered for minimum grading in performance appraisal.
