$500.00 Sign On Bonus (sm) - Annie


Posted: Sep 15, 2012

TransTech in TX is offering a $500 sign on bonus for experienced oncology MTs & MEs. Perhaps the tables are turning. I'm already working as one, but am not the least bit happy with the account as the reports are only a few seconds long and the busy work between each one takes longer than the transcription - thus you are not paid for half the work you do. MTSOs need to recognize this and that there is competition, i.e. TransTech! Do I hear $600!?

TT offered that bonus when I signed on with them - sm

quite a few years ago and I never saw a penny!

Did you meet the qualifying criteria? (sm) - Annie

Such as time in the position, etc? If so, did you contact the attorney general's office or the labor commissioner?

About the onc reports, were they full consults or just broken up office visits a few seconds long? How was the platform? Sound quality? Dictators? Did you spend more time doing non-compensated labor than transcribing or editing? Thanks for more details. I'm considering a change to make more than minimum wage for my decades of experience and 100% accuracy in oncology.

Same here - EX TT MT

The same thing happened to me..never saw a dime! They often try to win the MTs over and tell them things that are absolutely not true, and there were a couple of supervisors that would tell you one thing and cover their behinds and turn on the MT they were trying to help.

Be careful. It's cheaper for them to pay a sign-on bonus than to pay decent line rates. - nm

On the other job seeking board, there is a company offering a $100 sign-on bonus if you have knowledge of Arrendale TA+ dictation platform.

I work for Nuance already, so I'm not interesteed in signing on, more interested in signing off as soon as I can. I heard, though, that the company is offering sign-on bonus for new employees. Is that so? That sounds ironic. Is this the only company out there that gives sign-on bonus because they are so desperate for employees, or should I say semi-slaves? ...

Nuance hiring and offering $2000 sign-on bonus at the same time they are cutting our pay back lower than ever???? Wow! I don't even know what to say. I've been working on the same account going on 12 years and now I will make way less than what I did when I started. But if you are new to the game you can get a $2000 bonus which if you figure what they are about to start paying us this time around could equal months of work for us who have been here all along working hard ...

I was offered a job recently with Nuance and offered a sign on bonus after 90 days of employment.  With all the bad reviews and low pay according to a lot of people on this board, I was wondering if anyone has ever received a sign on bonus?  Do they actually pay it after the 90 days?  I like the idea of working 30 hours a week, but thought it odd that I was not even offered 40 hours, just told that it would be a 30 hour work week.  Also find it kind of strange that there ...

How Is It Going With Nuance Hires With Sign On Bonus?
Jun 09, 2015

For a while they were advertising for help hot and heavy with big sign on bonuses.  Now, no big help wanted ads and work is slim on many of our accounts. I guess not enough people have quit and they are overstaffed (surprise surprise).  Those people trying to get the sign on bonus are probably trying to stick it out as best they can (as I would too if it were me).  In the meantime, an awful lot of us are suffering from OOW situations.    This Fiasco stuff sucks, but in ...

Q2 BONUS
Jul 30, 2014

Thank you for my Q2 bonus, the first ever for me. However, I really could have used the money during the last 3 months. If divided up over those 3 months, I would not have had to borrow money for food. Please reconsider this punitive bonus plan you have. The money would be better served in my paychecks. Plus, all taxes deducted out of this bonus check is almost 50%. If that money would have been on a regular paycheck, the deduction would be more like 30%. This is punitive to MLSs in more wa ...
