Pros

PTO is decent. Not much else.

Cons

Pay is terrible. Most recent raise was $0.16. They got rid of incentive bonuses and shortened parental leave once they acquired QDS from Nuance. Promised things would be business as usual then terminated 3/4 of the staff by trying to make things fully AI. Meanwhile clients suffer and are unhappy. Poor leadership. Terrible benefits. Work is unfairly audited by falsifying errors or purposely waiting until the last day of the month to submit a poor audit so you don’t have a chance to redeem yourself. Employees were consistently receiving scores of 98-100% for YEARS but now that jobs are on the line suddenly QDS are getting QA scores of 95%.

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.
