I love the multicultural environment that we have and the fact that every day we have many opportunities to grow personally and professionally. This is the perfect place for those who want to build a great career.Joanna BriñezAGENT
This experience in Cognizant has been tremendous and demanding. Implementing a new project and moving it to 100% WFM and constantly achieving results has been the biggest challenge of my professional life so far, but it has been very rewarding at the same time. Cognizant made me grow, pushed me out of my comfort zone and above all allowed me to become a better professional. Working in such a caring and supportive company make us go above and beyond. Thank you Cognizant!Helder PaixãoTEAM MANAGER
