Pros

The work that TriZetto does is so very important to the future of healthcare in the US. From an altruistic standpoint, their results are very satisfying.

Cons

Management is unnecessarily demeaning to employees - there is really no expectation that your work will will be respected let alone your person. Poor treatment of others is often rewarded.

Pros

Cognizant can be a great place to work at. You have to be self-motivated and driven. You won't often be given a script on how to do your job well. But if you are willing to search for new opportunities, you will find success.

Cons

Just like many other tech companies, layoffs are happening all the time. This often brings many projects to a complete halt. Management never communicates when someone is laid off. And when they are laid off, they often never back fill positions, leaving existing team members working the equivalent of three jobs at once. Most teams there are skeleton crews, ensuring that they cannot reach their full potential.
