Joined cognizant as manager at 42. So keep your expectations high let them negotiate.

YOE?

Back In 2016, when I was with cognizant. They used to pay 35 to 40 Lakh for Director designation but things changed now a days, they are paying 30 to 35 for manager position, You can definitely ask for 35 as it is well within their reach for 11 YOE folks.

Thanks ! This helps. Should I stick to 35 or can I ask for more than 40%?

You can negotiate on 40 percent, but cognizant is tricky ground now a days. Be better prepared before joining cognizant.

Thanks for all that information. Really helpful

Be careful joining! Lots of voluntary attrition and forced attrition happening right now. Leadership at the top is doing a very poor job and lacks confidence.

Is it specifically for Cognizant or generally in the industry ?

Not a good idea joining Cognizant right now. Leadership is messing it up big time.

Oh. What’s happening?

Biggest issue is a 9 month period before starting new role at competing firm. I'm being recruited by a few firms. The recruiters seem to think it's a non issue but wonder if when it gets to offer stage it becomes a show stopper when partners realize I may not be able to start for 9 months. How do your firms handle these situations?
