I got an offer from Cognizant years ago in their business consulting division. They said before they could make the offer, I had to provide a paystub or my tax returns. Screw that...my worth isn’t based on what I currently made.

like

Yeah, that was six years ago. Heard they had overpaid a bunch of people, so they wanted to see what you made before giving a final offer. At that point, I backed away from the process.

Ex Cognizant here. Try to keep your base as max as possible, as their bonus and hike will be a joke every time. If you are on Visa, think twice.

Dude why would you want to go work for cognizant while at Deloitte

Am a SM and in my second year they offered me a partner position - DECLINED

What practice OP?
I just transferred to Cognizant and I’m loving my practice. Lots of opportunities and fun projects.

I am a Sales Support Engineer (Applications Engineer) with 2 YOE. I am thinking about making a change because my job is no longer challenging, and there isn’t much growth opportunity in my company. I love my team, but I feel like I may need to move on. I am at 70k a year and have been told time and time again that I have learned faster than anyone they have seen and am a top performer. I don’t feel like I am being compensated for that either. Any suggestions on companies and target salaries?

I got the offer and it’s exactly the same base/bonus as my current role. (Though they’ll also give me so stock options in the private company).

Can you share what is reasonable % increase to get for salary / bonus when switching jobs? I know the team really likes me.
