Cognizant Complaints & Reviews

I attended an interview at cts kandanchavadi on june 1st 2019 and cleared all the rounds. At the end hr informed me that i will receive my offer letter in a week but i haven't received yet. Meanwhile i received an email from cts talent acquisition to upload my photo in one of their portal and received mail.. After that, i haven't received any updates. I am not sure if normally they would take almost a month to release the offer letter.

Hi,

I had attended interview for big data hadoop developer position at cts, thoriapakkam, chennai facility on 21st july 2019. I had cleared 3 rounds (Technical, manager, hr) of interview on the same day. Even salary negotiation also done. Hr told that i will receive my offer within a week.

I had received mail from cognizant tag team saying "my application kept on hold" on 24th july 2019. Again, got a mail to from tag team asking me to join the live interview and fill some form with photo on 29th july 2019. I had done the procedure on the same day.

Now, almost 18 days passed since last communication received from cts. I don't know when will i get my offer letter.

Please tell me, when will i get my offer as am fully depending on this offer.

Hi,
My name is sibesh ghosh i have worked in cognizant from 30/07/2018 to 15/01/2019 my account was mscrm. I was recruited as an.net resource there but after joining i came to know that i have been put in ms crm account, that was also not an issue for me. After that we have gone through a training session but that was totally worthless. The worst thing was still
Waiting for me. Now i have been allocated in the project lead by kasturi chatterjee (Having associate id 249083) she always try to find any opportunity to humiliate me infornt of whole odc whether i am guilty or not. She never follows office decorum. She ran her hitleri rule so each project member be frightened and obey her all instruction whether it is feasible or not. The only thing she knows is to harassed her subordinate, and she likes to be surrounded by her foot lickers. Unfortunately she is so technically weak that she wanted her all work load will be distributed to her team member. I have taken the whole thing to my manager mr. Amitava biswas (Having associate id 131242) but he has not taken any action at all. After that i have resigned from my job or else she has bounded me to give resignation. After resigned my hr manager mr. Tirthankar bose has called me and ask me the reason behind my resignation i have shared all the things there he has assured me he will take proper action ask me to send one mail to him stating all incident, i have done all the thing according his instruction, but after that i have been mailed that my last working date has been preponed from 21/01/2019 to 15/01/2019. Now my question is that without informing candidate how can they do that. I believe that they have also managed the hr manager. After my resignation kasturi has done same things to two other guys also. So its my request to all to think twice before going to mscrm account of cognizant. Its is the one of the most worst account of cognizant as per work culture. I know that i am doing this complain after few months of my resignation but i recently come to know of this portal from my friend.

I had my interview without a cts at kochi on july 13th and was selected on the same day. I had the amcat test for java spring and hibernate and i think i performed well in the test that they took me and another interviewee directly for the hr round and said we need not give the technical round. I was asked to fill up the cis form post which i was called for the hr interview.

Now i am a candidate who has worked with wipro for over 6 years post which i had to take a career break due to spouse relocation and kids.

Irrespective of all this i had always ensured that i kept mysel[censored]pdated with the latest technology skills and even learnt the angular framework and i am currently freelancing as an it trainer and developer.

All these details were discussed with hr and finally hr told me that i was selected and that i would receive my offer letter in 2 weeks.

Now it’s been a month and absolutely no signs of the offer letter. On following up with hr, they sent a reply saying they are working on my offer and that i would receive the same shortly... Post that i got an invite for a live interview and was told to fill up a form and upload my photo and submit the same. The hr told me that i need to attend the interview as i have already completed the hr round and so i just need to fill up the form and submit. I did the same.

The very next day when i called the hr for an update, she started with an entirely different story and said that since i have a break in career i would have to take up a technical interview to be selected.

I don’t understand what cognizant thinks of candidates. Why does cognizant even call candidates if you think career break is a problem? Why do you waste our time and effort? Did i say i would not go through a technical interview on july 13th? It was you who decided that i should directly give the hr interview based on my performance in amcat and do you think clearing amcat with a good score can be possible by anyone who has no knowledge of programming concepts?
Why should i agree for a technical interview now after a month?

What is the kind of professional ethics that you follow? Is your intention only to harass candidates in the name of a job offer? I declined two job offers because i wanted to join cognizant and because i was offered the same by cognizant.

What’s even more frustrating is that’s i am being called again and again by some other hrs of cognizant for the same opening every single weekend. Does cognizant even have enough projects i doubt now? Are you trying to hold interviews just to show the outside world that you are still worth it?

With deep regret all i have got to say to anyone who attends an interview with this organisation is please do not trust them at any cost. And it is absolutely not worth working for such an insensitive organisation.

I have attended cognizant interview on 20th july at cognizant office raheja it park, hyderabad. I had all the three rounds of interviews (Technical, managerial and hr) on the same day. The salary negotiation is also completed and i am willing to move to bangalore from hyderabad. Hr told that i will receive my offer within a week to 10 days.

Only july 23rd a hr from cts has update day asking me to join the live interview and fill some form with photo on 23rd july 2019. I had completed the procedure on the same day itself.

After that i haven't got any update from them. On august 13th i have contacted the hr again and looped me with another person to provide an update on my offer letter.

Today, that is on august 14th, the exact words from my mail update is below

"tibco offers are in complete freeze now. We will reach you next year"

If they doesn't want to give an offer letter even after selected, why do they take interviews and give false hopes to people like me. Even if it is one mont or 2 months is fine, what is the point in reaching me next year.

I dont know whether i will receive an offer letter from them even if i wait for next year.

Please help me with this.

I gave interview in cognizant on date 13th july 2019, i cleared hr round. They told me they will release my offer letter in next week but no update. When i emailed them and they replied on 2 and 6 august mentioning that they will release my offer till eod but still i didn't received offer letter. After that i took update from them and now they are saying they didn't received approval. Afain i called them they told me they are not sure if they will release it or not. Could you please help me with it. Will i receive offer letter or not.

I am karthick raj. I attended interview and cleared it on mar'16 in cts kandanchavadi for power bi and hr told me that i will receive my offer letter in 3 weeks. I got candidate information filling form till now. Whenever i check the spoc, i receive a response saying that they will connect with me if they have any opportunity for my skill.

But i saw interviews happening for my same skills after few months also.

It's highly frustrating that they took almost 5 months and still haven't processed my offer letter. There is no time frame given when they will release the offer too.

Someone kindly inspect and let me know the reason why i am not given the opportunity yet.

I've received offer letter from cognizant on 27th march 2019 with doj given as 10th july.
As per the instructions i've submitted all the required documents on onecognizant portal and pre-joining forms.

But week before doj suddenly i was not able to login to portal, discussed same with hr recruiter and came to know that they revoked offer letter due to some technical issues & will release new offer letter soon.

Hi,

I have attended an interview for programmer analyst trainee at mallareddy institutions hyderabad on 30th june 2019 and cleared all the rounds. I got their mail on 2nd july 2019 of being selected in interview process and i was told that after my background verification is in process and i will be given offer letter within 3-4 weeks.
But it's been more than 4 weeks and i haven't heard any word from them.
I have sent many mails to inquire about hiring decision at different mail at cognizant but got no response from their side.
I am really in dilemma that whether i will get the offer letter or not.
Please do suggest me some ways so that i can reach to them and get to know about my offer letter status.
Thank you in advance.

Dear Sir,

I have completed my B.Tech(ECE) from Glocal University. I selected UG school name as "Lovely Professional University" because I could not find my college name in the list, and even option "others" was not there. I mailed cognizant helpdesk regarding this issue and tried every possible way to fix this issue, but I could not get any solution.

Today, I got UG school name mismatch email. again I login...

Hi,

I attended the interview on 13th july 2019 in cognizant sb road pune for big data opportunity and got the confirmation as "selected" from hr. Hr discussed the salary and informed me that offer letter will be released in a week but i haven`t received it yet. I got the mail from cognizant tag team also as "cognizant interview status - select". I uploaded the photo as well in one of the portal.

After not getting any mail for 14 days, i tried to contact hr and the person who conducted the interview but after many efforts, got the status that "requirement is on hold and we will consider your profile in future." from then i mailed them almost 4-5 times regarding the status of my offer letter but no one is replying to my mail. Poc - [mayuri-2. [protected]@cognizant.com, saranya. [protected]@cognizant.com, sakshi. [protected]@cognizant.com, dhineshkumar. [protected]@cognizant.com]

Moreover the dilemma is, yesterday i again got two mail from two cognizant recruiters for job opportunity in pune for big data. I am not able to understand if they select someone then why they are not giving priority to selected person. They are conducting interviews only and not giving offer letter to selected candidates.

It is almost a month and no one is even replying to my queries now.

Please look into this matter asap as it is affecting cognizant reputation very badly in market.

Hoping for a quick resolution and expecting my offer letter asap. Please help.
