Where to Stay When Visiting Cognizant (Teaneck)

Cognizant's headquarters is in Teaneck, New Jersey. Stay near the campus, not across the river. There's rarely a reason to pay Manhattan prices and reverse-commute.

Cognizant is an information-technology services and consulting company, headquartered at 300 Frank W. Burr Blvd, Teaneck, NJ 07666. That's Bergen County — the densely developed northeast corner of New Jersey just across the George Washington Bridge, where Cognizant (Teaneck), Quest Diagnostics (Secaucus), and Becton Dickinson (Franklin Lakes) sit a short drive from one another.

“Cognizant is at Glenpointe in Teaneck — and the Marriott is in the same complex. That's the whole commute.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief

Which airport — and how far?

Newark Liberty (EWR) is about 25 minutes south and the usual choice. LaGuardia (LGA) across the river is a comparable ~30 minutes for the county's northeast corner. Pick by your connection; EWR for most.
