Working at Nuance Communications in Burlington, MA: 16 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Burlington, MA Area

"Worked for Nuance for a couple years; management is easy going for the most part. Flexible hours and great benefits but base salary does not meet market standards.

"I worked for a company that was taken over by Nuance. They were a good company to work with because they do a lot of training online that was very useful."

"I worked for Nuance for about 3 years now. What I like is a no-nonsense attitude. For example 20 days of paid time off. It does not matter whether it is personal issues, health problems or vacation. What I do not like, especially in my group is the software development processes which are more fit for a couple of extremely talented friends that work and live together than for 15 professionals of various inclinations, talents and perceptions, which is the reality."

"The people in the rank and file of Nuance are great. The executive management is draconian. The company is run with onerous financial controls that inhibit best practices in operational management and marketing. It is often described as a meat grinder culture. People who have spent a significant time at Nuance will be battle hardened, and a great asset to another company."
