Cognizant has updated LWD same as Resignation date

Address: TCO campus , Chennai

I have resigned from cognizant on 8th August 2022 and they have updated my LWD late night as same day without any prior info given and locked all my accounts since next morning, didn't even provided any clarification on notice period, Clearance and Relieving letter also. This is height of malpractice from such a big organization. I only want clear information regarding clearance process, Relieving letter & experience letter...

            Address: CTS, Siruseri, Chennai, TamilNadu, India

            Sir/Madam

            This is to inform you that Susai George, s/o Sandhanaraj, working in your esteemed firm as Program Analyst, whose contact no [protected], is suspected to have abetted his wife and my daughter Ms.Maria Antonate to commit suicide in Japan. As per the Madras High Court Order, the Hon’ble Judge had directed to file an FIR against Mr. Susai George (4th Respondent). Hence an FIR has been filed in Steel Plant Police Station D4, Salem, FIR No.137/2022, Crime no 10350663. The Hon’ble Judge had also given many other directions. A copy of the same is attached with this mail.

            We are residents of Salem District, Tamil Nadu and my daughter Maria, an engineering graduate, was married to Mr. Susai George residing at 17, Cupucian Street, Ariyankuppam, Pondicherry, in the year 2019 on 17th May. After the marriage my daughter was continuously tortured and harassed in the matrimonial home and later my daughter and her husband shifted to Chennai from Pondicherry. There my daughter’s husband Mr. Susai was employed at CTS, Chennai. During her stay in Chennai also my daughter was not allowed to talk to us, and we were continuously bearing the harassments meted out to my daughter with the hope that one day he would change, and my daughter would have a happy married life.

            Infact, we had given 75 sovereigns of gold jewelry during her marriage. We also bore 50% of the marriage expenses of my daughter. All this we did by borrowing money from various sources. But nothing was respected or even regarded by her in-laws and her husband. When they were in Chennai my daughter was tortured and forced to ask us for Rs.5, 00, 000/- money to set up their house in Chennai. All this we did somehow with the hope that my daughter would one day have a happy life with her husband.

            Recently about 4 months ago we came to know that Susai George is posted in Japan by your company, and he did not allow our daughter to give proper information to us about their travel plan. After reaching Japan Susai had continued to torture and harass her, and my daughter had sent us several text messages and videos about the torture undergone by her in Japan.

            We were helpless here because Susai didn’t allow my daughter even to speak to us freely and suddenly on 3rd July 2022, we were informed by Susai George’s family members in Pondicherry that my daughter died due to suicide in Japan. We honestly doubt that the death is not due to suicide. The death should have been due to harassment and torture of Susai. Even otherwise my daughter could have committed suicide only due to abetment and harassment by Susai.

            Hence we request you to take immediate disciplinary actions against your employee, Mr. Susai George, and also expel him from his service. We are sure that he will somehow abscond from India and escape from the criminal case filed against him. We request you to kindly treat this letter as urgent and render justice to the family who have lost their only daughter.

            Thanking you,

            Yours sincerely,
            Lousiya M

                        Hi Team,
                        Good evening.
                        My Name is Indrakanth and I was approached for the Skill SAP Native HANA and I attended the interview on 18th June .
                        On 22nd June I was Informed that I had cleared the Interview.

                        Time : 11:00:00 AM

                        Candidate ID : 21621815

                        Date : 6/18/2022

                        Primary Skill : SAP Native Hana

                        Mode of Interview : Interview-Talview

                        When asked for the expected salary, I requested 24 LPA (negotiable) and the HR I spoke to finalized it to 23 LPA on 26th June.
                        after weeks of waiting and several un replied mails and calls. I have requested them to let me know the proposed package.
                        Today I received an email that my candidature was rejected.
                        Could you please let me know the reason for rejection ? and proposed compensation from the Cognizant for this role ?
                        Please let me know if you have any questions and could you please help me understand the reason for rejection ?
                        Thank you.
                        Indrakanth.

                            Same day I got hr call on 16th July with confirmation of joining, salary discussion and designation.
                            I was given surety to get my offer letter in 2 days ...but it's been 5 days no update i got.

                                Hi,

                                I have interviewed and received offer letter with joining date. But cognizant is delaying onboarding by showing the reason of P[censored]AN Name issue.

                                I have requested my previous employer to get the name change in P[censored]AN with all required concerned documents. It is under process with EPFO.

                                All this is not in my hand, i have all proof and documents of my differs, but still Cognizant is not accepting and going to withdrawn my offer.

                                Even after onboarding, this can be done as it is under process prior to joining. It is in EPFO hand, why cognizant making suffering to candidate. Please help me on this, as i need job on current situation. After multiple interviews, i have got selected and acquired an offer. My all previous experience documents are clear for background check, but showing simple reason towards P[censored]AN name differs is not correct. It impacts to my mental condition.

                                  Hi,

                                  I was interviewed for SAP Security lead consultant. I was told i was selected and they proceeded with HR discussion and documents submission on 15th jun 2022. I was promised that offer will be released. But after that no further communication received. No response to emails or phone calls also. It been more than a month. Please let me know what further actions needs to be taken. I just want to know the status of my offer.
