Pros

Nuance was very kind to me, they brought me from my home country to their Montreal office, followed through on the hiring process, were willing to help and train me, and recognized my efforts with good reviews, raises, a promotion, and business trip for more training. I worked day and night to guarantee I was giving back and they were happy with my contributions

Cons

But that didn’t mean a thing because their layoffs are decided by accountants and not actual management. I got cut with 15 other people in my office and overall 200 people as part of this Azure restructuring. Now I’m stranded in a new country needing to try and make things work with work permits, residency, etc and why? Because of some top-heavy decision

Pros

-Work from home. -Gain knowledge in the medical field. -Great company culture.

Cons

-The training is TOUGH. I wanted to quit multiple times because it is a huge learning curve. The trainers were not as encouraging as I would have liked them to be. They sometimes contradicted themselves in their comments on charts. -The pay is not that great. This job required motivated, educated, and detail-oriented people. I think the pay should reflect that, unfortunately it doesn't.

Pros

+ They make payroll every two weeks. Most of the time. Unless you are one of the laid off employees , which they do 2-3 times a year. + The top skill I see at Sr. Mgt level is blaming someone else for poor results, and figuring out how to do the least amount of work from M-F + Honest co-workers will tell you the skinny within 6 mos of you coming on board. "Everyone hates working here" was the line I rec'd from a friend I met in the hallway from a past company. She was right. + About one in ten managers are human beings just trying to make a living. If you are lucky enough to work for one of them, it will make your days on the ranch more bearable.

Cons

- CEO makes $10-20M a year, yet has built a culture to treat regular employees like cattle. - Sr. Mgt doesn't care about truthfulness. Depressing. - CHRO - is the chief cattle prod he uses to keep the cattle moving . She hired a company in India to police these reviews and comment back. Most of the positive ones are from short-timers. - Your annual bonus, when even paid, will only be 80% of what they tell you. They only pay it in stock, and the stock price always falls before you receive the shares in your eTrade account. This is true of all of their comp components. All come with strings attached to things you don't control. That's not a bonus plan - it's a fake news plan. - Waay too top heavy. - Definitely a culture that rewards outlandish promises not results, then wonders why the stock price is stuck in the $10-20 range for years. - Terrible investment for share holders. Dead money. - Unless you are desperate for a paycheck, move on.
