Pros

Great opportunity to grow that is if you are willing to grow.

Cons

All the work is pushed to the software developers while Team Leads and Tech Leads have no clue on the technology nor are the willing to work for the product. I can only seen them attending meetings and I really wonder why even call them Tech Lead or that matter. This is especially true in PS India team.

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.
