Pros

New technologies to work in Good opportunities for everyone Very good global support

Cons

Everything was fine during my working days in Cerence except the person leading the team. The person never support teammates, scolding in every calls, demotivating the teammates and too much pressure for the entire team. Role of a leader is to encourage and not demotivating a person. Your motivation only can give strength to your teammates. Team should be supported rather scolding them every morning. I don't know how few are still surviving under this circumstances. Employees are not your pet.
