Pros

The company is currently hiring, partly because they have driven away over 2/3 of the SFMC team over the last year or so.

Cons

Do you enjoy corporate drudgery and process upon process upon process? This place may be for you! Honestly, there is little to any fun in the day to day and there is soo much pressure to be "big consulting" that the work is almost forgotten. Team members who want to grow and try new things are often overlooked for new employees coming into the business from other places.

Pros

It was a much needed check in a time of need

Cons

Management seemed uneducated. I dnt know about cognizant as a whole but their eligibility department needs help. They focus on the things that do no matter. They were at risk of losing this contract, so now it’s whatever they client says, they do…no push back including making us do disability cases, that we had no previous knowledge of. In the beginning I was getting OT like crazy. Then they stopped it talking about it wasn’t in there budget, and at times when we needed someone to work/stay late. They are not consistent and the other employees there, are looking for other positions, too. Not to mention, myself and another employee were the only ones there for the longest. It’s a mess.
