Pros

A great chance to participate in Hunger Games style blood sports against coworkers, as you all scurry to find the next project before you’re booted for being on the bench. Incredible opportunity to learn first hand what happens when a mega corporation outsources most of its employee services and information sources to chatbots. Amazing experiences can be had if you enjoy the magic of having a glowing performance review reduced to a mediocre “lucky you have a job” rating because sales pipeline is week. Out of this world resource for constant emails about meaningless drivel, communication no real or helpful information.

Cons

-Work/Life balance can be a challenge. -You have to see pictures of Ravi Kumar hanging out in Greece and other exotic places while being told the company is cutting costs,

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.
