Hi,

Below is the mail trail when I tried to follow up with Cognizant Bangalore on my long pending PF transfer.

The irony is rather than providing the status, HRSS team at Cognizant has blocked me and are not receiving my e-mails forget abt updating me the PF status. This is ridiculous!!!

Human Resources at Cognizant Technology Solutions(CTS) has come out with a novel method to harass employees not in favour with the management. I have been at the receiving end of such a shoddy treatment engineered by Mr. Jacob Raj who is a senior manager, Human Resources,CTS, Chennai. This method was also being followed by third rate software companies and Cognizant (CTS) has joined the bandwagon adding a professional touch.

I have sent a below detailed complaint to Spicejet. but no reply. please read through this before booking Spicejet

Complaint:

This is regarding the cancellation of the ticket, PNR# Q4LJBE.

By mistake I have booked a ticket for October 5th, actually it was indented for October 15th. I agree that it was a mistake from my end. BUT I haven’t got any intimations (calls or SMS) at least an 30 minutes before the flight departure. I feel like both parties (me and Spice jet) has to bear the responsibility.

So when contacted to the spice jet customer care on 10/07/2010, they are telling it is not possible to reimburse more than INR 2000 (ticket cost INR 7350).

I am really sorry that I cannot accept this deal. I would request you to reimburse at least 80% of the ticket cost.

To bringing you in notice. I am a frequent traveler in Spice jet ( you could check with my Phone number/name, [protected], Name- Babu Rajanish).

After this incident I may rethink my future travel options with Spice jet. Kindly reimburse 80% of the ticket fare. Looking ahead for a positive response from your end.

Cognizant is the most unprofessioanl company I have ever gave interview to.
I have over 6 years of experience in IT industry.

I was selected in the interview after two rounds of interview with them
The second round was with the delivery manager and he was so impressed with me that he wanted my HR round to be completed immediately.
On the same day HR called me and asked me to send all the joining related...

corruption has become rampant everywhere , and pvt MNC companies, which are thought to be very transparent

and clean in their operation, have also come under the grasp of corruption.

People are devising unique ways to cheat the system. Here is one example. TCS (Tata consultancy Services)

conducts recruitment (offcampus/oncampus), and selects lots of candidates every year. Some of the people in

recruitment panel have built nexus with other institute. They are asking candidates to do a course in a

particular institute. The course fee for the course comes around 60 K - 1 lakh. They are threatening that if

they don't do the course he/she(the candidate) will not be selected. These recruiters(panel members) have

agreement with the institutes. They divide the money among themselves. This way it's a win-win situation for

the institute as well as the recruitment panel member. But, in this process, poor families/ poor

students/candidate suffer. Also, for the company it's a loss as it may be losing deserving candidates who

are not selected because they refuse to do the course.

This is not limited to TCS only but to number of very large MNCs operating in india also.

I wish the companies take action on these corrupt people.

Contract Employee Treated Badly In Cognizent
Complaint on the brain less... sorry... guys with no brain... Mr. Venkat (Manager, HR). Balram (HR Executive)

These two guys who are working in COGNIZENT is treating the contract employees like a slave. They were asked ... no, forced to work for 12 even 14 hours a day... and finally, hurt them and throw them away.

" YOU ARE A CONTRACT EMPLOYEE. YOU DONT...

During the recession hit period, Cognizant had a good time by foreseeing things. but there was no good done to the employees who worked hard for that.
Salaries for the associates are not hiked last stating the reason of recession when enquired about this year the statement was 'can't comment on the exact percentage of hike and how the hike would be' but now as all would be knowing cognizant is recruiting like anything and providing unbeliveable hikes to the lateral entrants.
No justice is being done to the employees who have sticked to this company.

hope something better would work out.

Sir,

Ref: Your Vehicle number KA01FA 613, Rout No. 271D, - Driver Mahantesh - ID No. 15533
Sub: Rash driving with high speed & damaged my car.

This complaint is against your driver who drove rashly and damaged my vehicle on 19.11.2009 at 9.45 AM near MES Road, Muthyalnagar. Let me explain in detail.

I was driving my vehile to go to office on MES raod, Muthyalnagar and waiting before entering into Outer ring road to clear the traffic. As you are aware that we can not enter suddenly as we have to wait to clear the traffic. The above said bus was driving very rashly and took immediate left turn without seeing my vechicle which was wating for traffic clearance.The back side of your vehicle completely damaged my car on the left side and running without stopping.

Afterwards, when i reached Jalahalli village bus stop, your driver was behaving as if nothing has happened. He was behaving very rudely on top of damaging my vehicle.

We did not trouble the public and went straight to BEL police station to lodge a complaint.They have informed me to lodge a complaint at YPR traffic police sation.

Ypr traffic police also started talking that i need to park infront of police staion and any further damages or parts stolen for which they are not responsible. I was bit scared their approach & finally asked them what i should do. Accordingly, my general complaint has been accepted and gave the acknowledgement. The inspector has come along with me to the spot where acceident happened. finally nothing has happened but for waste of time.

Today when i went to police station, they have told me that they have collected fine of Rs. 500/- and close the case.

Now I have to pay around Rs. 6,000/- as differential amount after claiming insurance.

Request you to cancel your said driver license or take sevior punishment so that the driver will be careful henceforth.

Pl. do reply immediately about action taken on both Driver and conductor.

Regards
AN Nataraja
