Hi Fishes, My joining is next month and the job Nature is to work as individual contributor but the job title is manager - projects. I would like to know if it is a good position in CTS or do I need to get any role equivalent to individual contribution? Also, afraid of not getting any dev activities in future due to the manager role. Pls share your thoughts?

Care to share your thoughts and experience so far in cognizant? How’s the manager role treating you?

I was also given same role as individual contributor and manager projects, kindly share experience with this role.

I believe it’s just a designation, but depends on the project you have been assigned. You could be working as an individual contributor but leading the team as well

How long it took to get offer letter after hr discussion?
