Pros

Good medical, dental, and vision benefits.

Cons

If you are not an Indian male, you are not valued. Everything is focused around being as cheap as possible including a big shift to move jobs to India or bringing Indian employees to the U.S. on VISAs. Most employees are remote and all the company provides is a laptop and cell phone. The turnover of employees who are U.S. citizens in the last three years has been extremely high because of dissatisfaction. The company touts their high level of diversity and inclusion which is very minimal, especially with women in management and technical jobs. It's a male dominated company.

Pros

It was a much needed check in a time of need

Cons

Management seemed uneducated. I dnt know about cognizant as a whole but their eligibility department needs help. They focus on the things that do no matter. They were at risk of losing this contract, so now it’s whatever they client says, they do…no push back including making us do disability cases, that we had no previous knowledge of. In the beginning I was getting OT like crazy. Then they stopped it talking about it wasn’t in there budget, and at times when we needed someone to work/stay late. They are not consistent and the other employees there, are looking for other positions, too. Not to mention, myself and another employee were the only ones there for the longest. It’s a mess.
