Sign-on Bonus! Are you kidding me? - MT


Posted: Mar 19, 2015

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, working OT and pushing ourselves to the breaking point. What a slap in the face!! ???

The bonus is just a carrot. The hoops to jump - through and hot coals to walk

across most likely make this bonus nothing more than a dangling carrot.

Ya, that bonus is not going to be paid out - ....

This company TAKES it does not GIVE. They don't even want to pay for WORK that is done....do you think they are going to pay a BONUS? They will say, "Oh, so sorry, you had 4 minor errors so you don't qualify" Too bad so sad....

$500 Sign On Bonus?
May 20, 2012

Does anyone know when you get paid the $500 sign on bonus for working the hours between 12pm and 3am? Do you have to work for so many months first? If so, why do they call it "sign on" bonus? ...


$500.00 Sign On Bonus (sm)
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!? ...

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 remember "back in the day" getting a $1000 sign-on bonus and I didn't have to have knowledge of the platform. Pathetic what this profession has come to. ...

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? ...

Sign On Bonus Question
Nov 16, 2012

I am almost at my 90 days and wondering when I should be expecting my 500$ sign on bonus I was promised... they said when I was hired, after 90 days as long as I was meeting my line count and 99% accuracy. Is this correct?  And how long after my 90 days do I get my 500$ sign on bonus check. ...

New Hires - Re: Sign On Bonus
May 12, 2015

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 ...

We were starving for work these past few weeks and now TransTech is hiring 10 more MTs?  This is really starting to tick me off! To the suits at TT who read the board:   Please stop hiring more MTs! We can handle the workload and do it well within TAT.  You always tell us that we are the best, we rock, etc., so why not just trust us to do the job? We really, really don't want to sit at our desks for 10 to 12 hours a day waiting for work and just barely making our 1500 lines ...


CMT Now $305 To Take? Are They Kidding?
Apr 15, 2011

After debating about whether I should take this test or not, I went to the site and found out that they are charging $305 (not the 150 it used to be) to sit for the CMT test if you are an MT who doesn't already have their RMT? I've been working for 10 plus years and I have to pay to take the RMT, which is a test for people just out of school?  I was going to bite the bullet and take the test as my company gives a small pay incentive for CMT status, but I think I may have to forge ...

If sales are so good and business is booming why not pay your grunts (MTs) better?  We are the ones who do all the dirty work so you can take the credit and the benefits and the pay.  We are the ones who listen and relisten to the mushmouth, careless dictators who eat, spit, cough, sneeze, pee, mumble, yawn, and more while they dictate.  MTs are the ones who get busted for a wrong lab value or missing an incorrectly dictated medication dosage or typing "th ...
