I've never used Word 2016. I value my work productivity too much to be a beta tester. I'm not pretending I'll be able to tell you what is happening. I have some questions, though, that may assist someone else in helping you.
"changes I've made" as in typing "Ignore?"
"changes I've made" as in accepting a suggested change in a word?
"Close the document?" Saved the document?
I would guess that saved is implied by your next part.

Even when I add to the word to the dictionary, it still pops up after I've saved and re-opened the doc.

Did you actually re-run the spell check after saving the words to the dictionary?
Because Word seems to be one of my hobbies, I will eventually get Word 2016 but I've been burned too many times by MS releasing stuff on the market that isn't reallly quite ready. When I got Office 2007 I quickly uninstalled it. I currently have Word 2007 installed on my computer for testing but didn't start really using a Ribbon version until 2010. I still prefer 2010 over 2013 for most purposes.
