I have worked for both and you may not like - sm

what I am going to say, but both stink!! Their platforms are awful, the sound quality was horrible and their people should take lessons in politeness. I would stay far away from both!

Nuance, overhire constantly, all accounts are Dragon Naturally speaking converters so after about 3 weeks they no longer need you. You will need to learn, learn, and re-learn accounts almost weekly and the NJA is a steady, then they try to make you stay on for 12 hours a day trying to get 8 hours of work, yes the folks there are rude, rude, rude, and lie, lie, lie, you would be better off picking up pennies in a mall parking lot for what you will earn per day working for Nuance.
Nuance Fiesa is about to drive me insane. 0.25 deduction for not putting a period in. REALLY???? I will contest it, but hate the amount of time we have to spend defending ourselves against this crappy QA system.
Thinking about SoftScript. Anyone able to compare how their QA stands next to Nuance. Any info for comparison purposes welcome.
I realize there is no such thing as a perfect company, but... Thanks. ...
Any pros or cons for working for this company? I did check the archives, but not much recent. I am open to the good and the bad. Thank you in advance for the suggestions. ...
In case you haven't seen it on the other boards, just announced this morning. Accentus is actually Canadian company. I have to wonder about monopoly laws, but maybe with them being Canadian it won't matter? There is no place to run....Accentus had its problems, but the insurance was good and I was on an account that was 75% straight transcription, making 10 for straight, 6.5 VR....sigh...time to jump from this sinking ship of transcription :(
I do believe in the end it wil ...
As a Transcender being taken over by Nuance, I am appalled that we have received no word about anything other than we will start with a time clock. No word about how we will be compensated, only "rumors" which I am sick of. Now I see Accentus is still hiring, advertising and advertising a "holiday bonus". Well, I want a holiday bonus. I am affraid they are not telling us "facts" just to keep everyone from quitting at on time. ...
Has anyone on the clinic side (Formerly Zylomed) of things heard anything at all about some of the things posted here on the Nuance board? Also, other questions are:
1) The only thing I've been hearing for months is that things "on our side" (meaning the Formerly Zylomed folks) will stay the same - that we'll keep our own exclusives, etc. Has anyone else heard that or heard anything different?
2) Does anyone know what will become of current ICs? Will the ...
Just got e-mail from our wonderful HR person that no 401K was deducted in our most recent paycheck. As soon as Nuance bought us, our program stopped :((
Welcome to Nuance...ughhh....I jumped from Webmedx to Transcend to Accentus and it seems I cannot escape :( ...
That is unfair. They should just advertise under Nuance now. People might jump to the job thinking it is another company, and come to find out it is Nuance. This is false advertising. I surely wish Accentus would quit posting job openings. I get excited whenever I see a good job listing then I see it is Accentus/Nuance all over again. Sheesh. Thanks for listening to my little rant. ...
I currently work for Nuance and am looking for part time work. Accentus is hiring but I heard Nuance bought them out. So, are they still separate and I can apply? or would I in fact be working for the same company? Getting desparate for a PT job as Nuance is not cutting it with having to stick to the 8 hous a day. Thanks ...
Hi! I am currently job hunting and am curious what anyone can tell me about their experiences in working for Accentus has been like since they were bought out in 2012 by Nuance. I searched the archives and most of what I found about Accentus was from before the buyout, and may no longer be accurate information. Thanks in advance! ...
I was just wondering if there are any other Accentus employees who are on pins and needles waiting to hear about our benefits/new payroll changes? First we are told we will hear something last week, then oops, sorry, an e-mail will be sent out with a LINK so we can listen to a RECORDING (are they afraid to speak to us and hear what we think??) and then another e-mail stating sorry, it is not ready yet, but you will still have plenty of time to enroll for your healthcare. Time to dese ...
Anyone not making line count for Accentus? I am making about half required and will have 2 weeks to make line count. Canadian accounts. What happens if I cannot make it, will they let me go?
...
Is there anyone out there who has worked for Spheris and other large companies? If so, how does Spheris compare? Looking for other opportunities, but don't want to end up in a worse situation :) In particular, has anyone worked for both Spheris and Webmedx?
thanks ...
especially if you're on a southwestern account and doing editing for the first time. I started with MQ last month and feel very discouraged, mainly for all the minor negative feedback I'm getting. I'd like to know how the other new employees are doing so I can get a sense of where I stand. I keep thinking any day now I'll get a notice I'm fired. Email me directly and dish it out. ...
I'm seeing pay rates all over the place on this board and I'm just curious as to what others are receiving. I'm an independent contractor. I have a lot of psychiatric accounts but they only pay 10 cents a line (65 characters, of course). That's a decrease from my standard rate a few years ago (but supply and demand made me reduce my rate). Because I'm a fast typist and the psychiatric work is easy, I easly make $30 an hour when I'm focused.I've ...
I've been on EditScript for a while now and was looking for another position using the same platform but elsewhere. I have a lead that is M*Modal, though (they used to use EditScript), and even the recruiter admitted that of those who've done both, most prefer EditScript. But I'm thinking that with a smaller company where there aren't so many cooks in the kitchen it might even out to be about the same in terms of quality anyway? Or maybe I'll just be on ...
Can we post line rates quoted to experienced MTs this year? I think many of us do not wish to waste applying and testing for a company that is reducing the line rate AGAIN to only .03 cpl.
If anyone was offered less than .04/.08, did you turn it down? Did they offer more? Name of company?Thanks for any input. ...
