Trending @Cognizant; PA to A promotion full clarification
I spoke to HR today and Parallely spoke to my manager as well. Hope this conversation will clarify all your doubts
i) Based on utilization, rto :2.5, rating 3 and above, 30 months completion from joining and they will make a eligible list
ii)if you won't satisfy RTO but rest all are satisfied in this case they will make non eligible list
These two lists are sent to your Port Folio Lead and Engagement Delivery Lead but not to your HM and also it is not true that your manager sees something in GoPerform
Then according to this list your PDL And EDL will connect with Project manager and project manager connects with your Lead , your PM and lead should recommend you for promotion, you will get promotion
If in case you are on the non eligible list and still they want to promote you in this case they should push your case as special case saying that you were a crucial resource for Team and having best performance. then they will nominate you and you will get promotion
But 2 of my teammates who didn't have been followed RTO also got promoted in Q4, I am sure they will not be special case but not sure what happened in Q4 promotions
And last date for nominations for Q1 is 26th March. Check with your lead and ask him to recommend you to PM and to EDL And PDL.
Above all the information I am writing after putting my efforts in investigation.

A special thanks in regards of all PA

One more thing to add is, those who are nominated now will get official mail in April 1st week

Are you sure about this, who confirmed it?

Hie A quick doubt....is it mandatory 30months because I have seen a kind of different info just a small change

Yes 30 months is mandatory, you can call GSD number and press 8 to connect with HR, they will give you this basic info

Hey my work model says 0-1 days remote so can hr consider me for 2.5 days a week?

In this case you need to show mail proof to HR, then they will consider you in eligible list

What if my utilisation was 65/75 in 2024 and 98/75 in 2025 rating 3 and work model is 0/1 days per week

My work model is 0-1 days per week so I conveyed the same to HR they told me to send the screenshot of mail from Project Manager. Don’t know what’s gonna happen 😪

Thanks for this info... For me all createria is met expect this RTO...so I can ask my PM for this right
Bcz he told me it's not possible as rto is mandatory

Yes you can ask, if he recommend you as special case then they will nominate you

@BonyCommunicant When can we expect designation change or when Q1 results will be out?

Not sure on this
