Hi Folks,

Landed offer from @Cognizant. Need your valuable inputs to make an informed decision.

1. WFO Policy (madatory days and mandatory hours to report to office)
2. Variable Payout, 70k/year (what can be expected 0%-100%)
3. How good projects are?
4. Appraisal (expected % : min-max) & Appraisal year (is it every financial year, i.e. April)
5. Leave Policy
6. Bench Policy
7. One positive note, why to choose CTS
8. One negative note, why NOT to choose CTS

Thanks in advance.

Hey what was asked in Hr round?

Could you please tell me about your hiring timeline?
I gave a hackerrank test last week and then hr scheduled a virtual technical round on Saturday and it went very well.
When can I expect to have the hr round? And regarding the salary discussion, how did it go?
I have 5.5 yoe and I have 2 counter offers 19 and 22
Would they agree for 26-28 or will they crib about budget issues?
As I also saw they sent me a naukri invite which was 4-9 yoe for java fullstack developer which clearly stated the budget range of 25-40 lpa.
Since when did cognizant pay this much?
So can I ask for a higher number or will they reject straight away as my cctc is low (11 only)

Cognizant Recently cognizant have changed their internet wfh allowance policy.we use to get 1800 per month as internet allowance without submitting any bills or transaction details. Now they changed the policy as we need to apply for icici/axis/hdfc credit card from there we need to make the transaction and reimburse the same. I am ok with everything but why i need to apply for credit card? How a company can force me to have a credit card? It will directly/indirectly alter the credit score right? Cogniza
