Pros

Not easy to identify them

Cons

the leadership at Nuance is incompetent at nearly all levels. The CEO is hated within the company and even SVPs complain about him. Nearly every week, a new priority arises and execs panic - teams are flipped from one project to the next. Many in the company are demoralized on a regular basis. You can see it in the hallways and in meetings. The company is now telling employees to write positive reviews here to try to raise their score to paper over the issues with the culture. Good companies don't need to do that.

Thank you for your review, we appreciate the feedback. Most companies do request employees to post information on glassdoor about their experience. We do not ask for a specific type of review, only that the employee writes a review. We are sorry if you misinterpreted that request. We see you’ve been with the company for three years and it’s been a challenging three years for you. Have you thought about looking at opportunities internally that would be more to your liking? We have over 400 jobs available and 19% of our roles are filled through internal movement.

Pros

The company offers excellent training and a thorough onboarding process, helping new hires feel well-prepared and confident. The small, close-knit teams foster a collaborative and supportive work environment where you never feel lost in the crowd. Employees take pride in the innovative technology and software being developed, which is recognized as impactful within the industry. (Note: The company was acquired by Microsoft to bring potential for future growth.)

Cons

While the company excels in many areas, there’s limited upward mobility, especially in certain career paths, which can be frustrating for those seeking advancement. Additionally, feedback from employees often feels like it’s not taken seriously, which can lead to disengagement when trying to influence change or improve processes.
