Pros

-- Cognizant offers a strong work/life balance for US based resources. -- Cognidant offers the opportunity to work on very large/complex projects for some of the top US companies.

Cons

Limited career opportunities for US based resources outside of business process outsourcing management. Cognizant has recently started a management consulting career track, but they haven't quite worked the bugs out of the system. Examples would be 3 month delays in promotions, and annual salary increases, and limited job opportunities.
