Pros

There used to be a lot of good reasons to work at Nuance - Now I can honestly think of none.

Cons

Since taking away our holiday pay, any future raises, and cutting our PTO in half, this company has taken micromanaging to a level I have never seen. They have now upped the required lines, quality percentage to maintain and informed us that we must work 100% within the hours we are scheduled for (which takes away much of the purpose of being an at-home employee). Then, on top of telling us we must work 100% within those hours, if the system goes down, you have sat at your desk for over an hour waiting for it to come back up and at the end of that time when they realize it isn't going to.... they tell you that you are no longer being paid for downtime (meaning they just took an hour and a half of your time and are not paying you for it!! I see the Labor Board in this company's future.

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.
