BURLINGTON, Mass., Jan. 31, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nuance Communications, Inc. today announced that it has been named one of “Montréal’s Top Employers” for 2020.

This is the tenth consecutive year Nuance has been named a Top Employer in Montréal.
“Our employees are the reason Nuance is such a great place to work, and they are also why we have market-leading technology that is trusted by the largest companies around the world,” said Beth Conway, Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer. “We are fiercely committed to cultivating a culture where they can thrive, and providing benefits that empower, inspire, and support their varying needs.”

Additionally, Nuance maintains strong relationships with many universities and academic institutions worldwide, including Mila, and the company’s Montréal office offers a robust internship program for students and young professionals, hosting approximately 150 interns over the last 12 months.
Nuance also was named one of the “Best Places to Work for LGBTQ Equality” in 2020 by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation.
