Hi everyone,

I recently received an offer from Cognizant (CTS) with a joining date in early May. However, my current company has a mandatory 3-month notice period, and they are not agreeing to an early release.
I wanted to check with people who have faced similar situations:

Does Cognizant usually allow DOJ extensions of around 60–75 days due to notice period constraints?

Has anyone successfully negotiated a later joining date after accepting the offer?

Do not resign unless your new company does not wait for 3 months ...

Now your manager starts searching for new candidate. Esclate to higher management that is the only way

You should not resign unless you are sure that you will get early release or next organisation will extend DOJ. Asking early release not your rights as you have already signed to serve 3 months notice period. Escalation to higher management will yield nothing. You can only request and be ready to take resignation back in case nothing happens.

I heard a lot about Capgemini don’t negotiate with their 90days NP, but when I put the paper and stop productivity from my side and had small fights with Scrum master my pm who is also my n+1 he was ready to release me early.
So, you can try similar things if all goes well who knows you may get early release as well .
Best of luck .
