Pros

The company 'owns' the space of speech recognition. If you are interested in this technology you may find the work satisfying

Cons

The absence of real competition in the marketplace makes the company a bit more rigid than it could have been. There is too much of a bureaucratic feel to it.

Pros

The technology is the leader in the industry. Nuance has a history of success. The salaries and benefits are competitive and the managers have a lax attitude towards working from home.

Cons

There is a glut of managers who spend most of their time bolstering statistics to make their engineering groups appear effective. The managers are too busy jockeying for advancement to notice that the lower level employees are floundering and unhappy. There engineers are led by non-engineers so code quality and structure are not valued, nor are employees who promote these things.

The Montreal office is a great office to work at.

Pros

We use leading technologies, we have good training opportunities, once in a while we have nice social events, as part of the work travel opportunities arise (e.g., to meet customers).

Cons

Direction from management is sometimes unclear. Also, the salary freeze may not seem justified when senior managemen get tons of new stock options.
