Hello Everyone,

I had posted this query earlier but haven’t received any response yet. I am in need of this information, so I’m requesting again.

Could someone please clarify the buyout process for the notice period in Cognizant?
Is it possible to buy out the full 90 days?

Your guidance would be really helpful.
Thank you in advance.

Quiet not possible
This requires D+ level approval
There are so many considerations

like

Nobody cares what your plans are ! It's company's loss and profit on which they decide


As long as you are on project you remain in company

You have to serve entire 90 days on project after resignation, if D+ approves early release by 45-60 days than these days you work and continue on the project

Bench charge codes have a budget, the salaries are paid on this budget, They don't sponsor resigned employees salary by letting them charge on bench charge code. Nothing is for free lad!

Full 90 days buyout not possible, 45 days it's possible! I got the same

like

1. If you get an early release - it will be from project- you will never charge to bench charge code - bench co-ordinators doesn't accept this, meaning the day you get released from project is also your LWD in cognizant

2. You can use your earned leaves to further reduce notice period (subjected to director approval) but you can't use it to join the next company early

For example your LWD after buyout is March 30
Leaves adjusted (15 EL) to March 15
LWD in service letter still remains March 30- next company you can only join after March 30 otherwise it's duplication of benifits or dual employment which is illegal

P.S. early release is a very tough process in Cognizant and allowed only on serious medical grounds - approval itself takes 3-4 weeks post resignation, so please plan accordingly and keep your medical certificates ready to prove your medical grounds
