I recently joined EXL and want to move to Analytics domain. But, I know it depends on my Manager and HR. Obviously, they won't approve so easily.

So, if anyone is already working in EXL ANALYTICS domain, plz let me know.

I want to get the Analytics, ML and DS real time experience. I want you to show me what kind of tasks you are working on and probably give me an overall view of your entire project.

Don't worry, I will pay for this. I want this experience to crack a product based company. Thx

Q1. What are the possibilities of getting into Cognizant for the same project as when I left few months back (5 months)? My Cognizant Manager, SA and 9 out of 38 team members (4 out of 13 at my level) have all left after me. Now I wish to go back to Cognizant for same Project.
Q2. I heard that Cognizant would not provide any hike (from our current CTC) if we re-join them within 1 year. Is that true? Any proven cases of Q2?
