"Good company to start your career. Excellent policies and fuels your career growth if you stick to the company. However does not pay much attention towards your personal interest.

"I've worked at Cognizant since 2006. The place has nurtured me from an entry level trainee to a passionate developer who loves challenges and a great mentor! However, the quality of incoming talent has been drastically falling down. Now, the middle management has lost all sheen and we have very few people to look up to and learn from. The company has moved away from thinking about employee personal development."
