Cognizant

Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp is an American multinational corporation that provides custom information technology, consulting, and business process outsourcing services. It is headquartered in Teaneck, New Jersey, United States. Over two thirds of its employees are based in India. Cognizant is listed in the NASDAQ-100 and the S&P 500 indices. Originally founded as an in-house technology unit of Dun & Bradstreet in 1994, Cognizant started serving external clients in 1996.

It made an IPO in 1998, after a series of corporate splits and restructures of its parent companies. It was the first software services firm listed on the Nasdaq. During the dot com bust, it grew by accepting the application maintenance work that the bigger players were unwilling to perform. Gradually, it ventured into application development, complex systems integration and consulting work. Cognizant saw a period of fast growth during the 2000s, becoming a Fortune 500 company in 2011. In 2015, the Fortune magazine named it as the world's fourth most admired IT services company.

Consent

by: Devlins

I would give anything just to be with you
Give you the dreams I'm having, just to be with you
Somebody said I needed your consent
That's what I'm working on
Your consent
Is that so wrong?
Give you the stars from heaven,
If you give me a sign
My body in your body, time is a friend of mine
I guess I need your consent
That's what I'm working on
Your consent
Is that so wrong?
Why you wanna spend your time with some player mother fucker Baby you were born to be free
Why you wanna sell yourself like some rich man's toy
Is that what you're suppose to be?
Some day you're gonna to wake up
Crying through your makeup
And wish that you were here with me, with me
And when I have it baby, I'm gonna to treat you right
Love you in the daytime, make it right through the night
Your consent, your consent, your consent
It's gonna be alright
Don't sell yourself now honey
