Hi everyone!!
I applied for 1 week holidays in Dec and I had already intimated to this my manager 3mnths back. But now manager saying u can't take leaves, we don't give continuous leaves and etc. Now I can't even take my planned leaves and telling me ro work on my leaves. And i have so many EL leaves which are gng to expire by this year.
Have u faced this situation ?
Anyway I'm gng to apply for leaves and take it.

For any kind of planned leave always inform over email - 15 working days prior to your manager.

Approach should be like -" I will not available for these following days For some personal work . would like to apply for PTO for the following days . "

Note - Email should be like - you will not be available & informing to manager - it should not be like your asking for approval & then only you will take leave .


I always followed this tricks & never get any obstruction in my 6 years of tenure .

Say it should be like informing not like asking/requesting. Let's see what will happen. But i learned a good lesson.

Always remember my friend, do not intimate such things on call or chat,

Once discussed, drop a 1-1 mail to manager so at last when manager deny you will be in safe zone.

Good luck

I knew this will happen, so had intimated it by mail. And it's not like others had not taken long leaves b4 me.
If they deny I'm ready to escalate it.

Cognizant has the policy of auto approval of leaves if it's not approved by the manager, if manager rejects they need to provide a proper justification.

Since you already applied for the leaves 3 months ago, I'm pretty sure it would have been approved already, the manager cannot go back on his/her word now.

You can always include HR in these discussions and inform them of these issues, if it goes unnoticed, please take it to your management. They should not be playing with your ratings for their weak egos if you do take the leave anyway.

In Cognizant HR is visible until you join the company. Once you join they miraculously disappear. Even a "Ghor Tapas" will not help you but once you use the "Brahmastra" of resignation they suddenly appear. And not one but many HRs become visible at the same time.

Yes, one of my friends faced this situation.
If you have leave balances apply and drop a formal email..

I am really concerned with the current recruiting system, specifically with “target schools”. I vividly disagree with this concept. I, myself, attended a good university but many of my friends have attended lowered ranked schools. Lower ranked school doesn’t mean lower talent. Some people don’t have the resources to get into top schools but they are still talented and worthy of consideration. Where one goes to school doesn’t say much about individual and future professional!
