Hi fishes,

Is there a deadline for accepting the offer letter in Cognizant once the acceptance portal mail has been sent?

Also if I accept and then decline later before joining, what will be the consequences? It says in the acceptance portal that the offer letter is legally binding.

There won't be any consequences. Max you won't be able to apply to CTS again. Just drop them a mail atleast 2 days before your DOJ. They won't even call you back asking the reason as lot of people are doing it everyday.

Is there a deadline for accepting the offer letter? Or can I wait till DOJ before accepting?

If you have to join CTS then accept it asap. If you delay then your on boarding will be delayed as well as they need to complete BGC before generating joining pass

Actually I might get counter offers in which case I might not join cognizant. That is why I was thinking of stalling for now. In case of delays, will there any other complications due to that? Because I'm okay even if I have to wait a bit for joining letter.

Nothing will happen. Only joining date will postpone.
