      Pros

      If you find any then let us know.

      Cons

      - No Concept of organization you just wake up some day and find out any Software Engineer with zero management skills getting promoted to Engineering Manager. Only thing these Manager does is MICROMANAGEMENT and asking updates after every 20 mins to other team members without having any technical idea of that particular task. - No perks as compared to any other product based company/service based company (ex. food copons, parental insurance,etc)- Even any random startup provides you much better facilities. - No WHF allowance. - LTA and Telephone reimbursement are part of your CTC (huge part) which you will get at the end of the year only. Not included in monthly salary!! - No welcome kit or goodies as given by other companies - Employee insurance and gratuity is included in your CTC itself to make it look bigger amount. This is not the case with many reputed companies. - They do not give any food coupons - India unit doesn't get quality work, all the actual work is done by the US/Canada region. - No transport facility, No snacks - As the work quality is poor, you will not have any learning

      We all love free goodies, snacks, coupons and extra perks! I’m sorry that we haven’t met your expectation in this area. Thanks to employee feedback like this, we have launched a new joiner welcome kit in Pune! As for benefits, we review Cerence offerings regularly to make sure we are competitive and continue to upgrade when possible. I‘m sorry that you were disappointed with the return to office plan. The global pandemic has been stressful to say the least and our India team has been a top priority as they were hit the hardest by Covid. These are truly unprecedented times. The wellbeing of our employees is of utmost importance and we revised our plans based on local conditions. In fact, we are scaling back our return to office plan entirely, in the best interests of our employees. We appreciate your candid feedback on your local manager. I have escalated this to HR leadership and encourage you to do the same. Our goal is to have an amazing culture at Cerence with employees who feel valued and rewarded.

      Pros

      Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Cerence. I learned a lot, grew significantly, and met many great people from around the world.

      Cons

      The number of reorganizations and layoffs took a huge toll on the company culture and morale. The company's vision and strategy was hard to pin down as well, which made my job more challenging in a less than ideal way. It was also frustrating that the tuition reimbursement advertised upon signing was actually dependent on department budgets and discretion, so I never had the chance to use it.
