Cognizant I recently got an offer from cognizant. I had a talk to the manager about the working hours. He said as this is a Canadian client so there will be late evening calls till 10-10:30 pm.
Can anyone please let me know how is wlb in Cognizant. I am selected in BFSI domain.

It totally depends upon project/client. No service company can guarantee wlb.

Depends on your manager and the project.

Now work life balance. Minimum 12 hrs will be expected out of you

I am logging in at 11 AM, Log off at 2 AM. There’s no WLB.

In managerial round what they asked? Tech + manager ? And if it is tech then was it simple or logical or some difficulty level was high? Because I will have techno managerial round soon.

hiya fishes. happy friday! sorry if this isnt the right bowl, but this is in regards to vacation time. i have an interview process starting next week, and wondering when it would be good to mention i would be OOO between the middle of the month in september? its for a week. im unsure if i can twist this to have a start date once im back. going back and forth on being transparent vs. mentioning it later on. thoughts?

Wish me luck: I just took a job at a new agency in which I'll get paid double as the creative director for a team of 30 people. I'm ecstatic, this is my dream!

Covid has been hard. March 2029- December 2020 I drank a lot to cope without realizing it. January- March I didn't realize I was depressed. March I came to terms with increase and ongoing suicidal ideation and needed help.

I went into a intensive outpatient program (IOP) which has been super helpful.

During the beginning of covid I drank every day and in a great deal. January it was a "dry" month which was hard the first week but overall great.

March 2021 realized I'm clinically depressed.
