Hi fishes,
I joined cognizant on 2nd Nov 22. How long it will take to allocate a project?

Working on a busy project with a first year and it’s their first big project since starting big law. I’m also a junior, but not a first year. I am kind of shocked at how inefficient the first year is. They’re just barely getting the work done and I assume that’s all you can ask for. But because of that, more and more keeps getting added to my plate. Trying to be compassionate, but it seems like they don’t really care they’re not doing a great job - they log off early, don’t always turn in work.

It’s Tech Talk Tuesday! Share your favorite program / system and how it’s help you elevate your career! I’ll go first…Trello is a free project management tool that helps you organize and optimize tasks. I use it with other tools (google forms and tmetric) to curate the creative brief process, plug into a production pipeline, consolidate and streamline communication, and track status / hours at no cost!
