How's the work life balance at Cognizant?

Depends on the position and time of year. For some positions, certain times of the year can be brutal and often times, management will impose PTO blackouts for certain time periods in order to accommodate the increased work load. If you are grandfathered into the merger, some people have unlimited PTO, however, most employees only get 2 weeks/year. If you do not have backup for your position, getting time off may be difficult and makes for poor work/life balance.

Depends upon your role. Typically not very good, people work around the clock with calls etc late into the night and very early in the morning.

This is dependent on a project schedule and how effectively works is being delegated or completed

Priority is usually work, not really having a life...but they are trying to be better.

The work life balance at Cognizant is excellent.
