Pluspunten
Salary is paid on time. Remote work options available depending on the project or PM/client. Some interesting projects and generally stable onboarding and accounting procedures. Friendly work environment—at least on the surface—and suitable as a first step in your career.
Minpunten
Extremely low salaries and virtually no raises. Compensation lags behind market standards. No structure for growth or promotion. Most promotions are rare or symbolic. Chronic overtime is normalized. Expect calls at any time of day. Lack of experienced leadership—many managers have only worked at Cognity, with no external perspective or modern leadership skills. No real training or onboarding system. New hires are often dropped into projects with little context or support. Toxic culture of micromanagement and favoritism. Juniors are overburdened with little protection, and there’s no technical mentoring. Outdated tech stack. Modern tools are adopted slowly, if at all. No dedicated HR or functional internal processes—departments like finance or HR are minimally involved in employee well-being. Work environment is deteriorating. Old offices, minimal perks, and zero focus on employee experience.
