Cerence is a very fast-paced, vibrant company with some of the brightest minds in the industry driving pioneering innovations. This isn't a place to waste time but to be challenged. We are committed to the development of our employees and have invested in numerous training opportunities to support their growth. We also offer incentives and host numerous award and recognition programs. We cannot speak to your specific situation being an anonymous review, but we are very sorry to hear that you felt it was a waste of time. Thanks for sharing.

Pros

Great work life balance. Lower and middle management is great. Tech stack is good. Day to day this place is nice to work at.

Cons

1. C-suit seems to be playing it’s own game. For example: “ Everyone should come to the office three days a week.” (Reality is almost no one comes and the cubical layout makes you feel more alone in the office then at home). “We want to re-do the way we give pay increases to match our revenue time line. ( Reality is they are pushing everyone’s pay increase from December to April so you will get a promotion and the work that comes with it but be under paid for 4 months). 2. People are leaving all the time to the point where there’s massive sections of code no one knows how it works. 3. They have annual survey's to check in to see how their employees are doing but do nothing with the results. Why pay that third party company for that survey software and not use it?

Pros

NOTHING............... If you find any then let us know..

Cons

India office in Pune is in an under construction building and has not yet developed fully, don't leave any personal belongings at the office as they're not responsible for their employees' stuff... never saw such bad management!! Manager forces you to come to the base location despite the increase of covid cases..(during 2nd wave) No growth, no learnings, only favoritism, will only get a promotion if you're favorite to your manager, doesn't value your work, give almost no increase in compensation despite good feedback on your work! Always have a 'low budget' as a reason while good company performance throughout the year as per their emails!!
