Think on these aspects-

Growth at Cognizant vs growth at EY
(What is promotion gap between 2 levels)

Hike percentage per year
(Which company offers more hike per year for similar ratings)

Location preference (personal choice)
Onsite opportunity (personal choice)

I have heard this- if they wanna retain you because someone else is offering more, you should not stay.

A few pointers,
EY India would cater to Indian clients, with CTS you'll get global clients.

You've been with CTS for some time and probably have a good repo and a network within the firm, while EY would be an uncharted territory.

You've decided to leave CTS for a reason and once you put down your papers, a part of you already left CTS, would you be comfortable/willing going back. Also, was pay the only reason you were planning to leave?

Finally, imagine you don't have an offer from EY, would you want to stay at CTS and look no further OR imagine CTS wouldn't give you a counter offer, would you happily switch to EY?

Is it the salary for which you looked out for?
Compare the role and the prospects you will have..have a fair estimate of how your life would be say 5 years from now, in terms of earning, position, reputation etc.
See once you initiate a discussion of resignation that remains in the minds of the leaders.. if you are grossly underpaid people understand else they may think you are job shopping.
Speak to people in the next company to understand the culture, growth etc so you are convinced before you join there rather take things for granted and later get shocked.

Think of the profile and where the work is better.

Is this possible?
Does Cognizant counters new offer CTC for existing employees?

Finally what decision did u take?
