Cognizant isn't a consulting firm. It's a outsourcing company that heavily relies on body shopping to make money! Stay out.

like

that's fair. But 99% of the company is dependent on outsourcing / body shopping, so this consulting arm is very minuscule. Culture might be great, but then it is a small world. Post exit ops will be even bleaker! unless you want to be join other ones. TCS, blah

Depends highly on what level and which practice you are joining. Lots of ex-B4 around certain practices. Don't expect anything more than SI and PM type work. There are a lot of 40 hr/week people hanging around though.

Except Cognizant has a consulting arm that doesn’t operate that way at all, 🤷🏻‍♂️

I recently started a new sales position, and I know I’m making a lower commission rate than my male counterparts. Could be that I’m new, and they decided to lower it and not because I’m a female. My direct manager is trying to adjust it because we were both told 1% and when my commission started I was at .8%. Any advice would help, I never signed anything that had a commission rate on it. But I’m pretty sure our base as a company has always been 1%.
