Top management suggestions for Nuance - LISTEN TO MT FEEDBACK
Posted: May 16, 2014
Whoever is in charge of VR for Nuance is doing a bad job. Same mistakes over and over again no matter how many times I have corrected them. Being paid 4 cpl is an unfair wage for the amount of editing required.
Some of your middle level management is incompetent and actually could be eliminated leaving you the opportunity to pass on their salary savings to MTs MTs do not need pep talks or "team" emails. We need to be left to do our work and be paid more so we can make a decent living.
As far as the corporate line with complex and convoluted messages filled with nonsensical catch phrases - give this foolishness up. Keep it simple without embellishments like "reaching out" or "excited" to try to snooker MTs that you care about them. We are all in business to make money not friends and it is insulting for you to pretend to care. If you cared you would take less pay and give it to the people who actually do the work, the MTs. Words are cheap. Show us you care by raising the pay and cut the BS friend/team pep talks.
To Nuance powers that be/uppermanagement: There is nothing more motivational than being paid well for work well done.

listen to feedback - mcj
[ In Reply To ..]You hit the nail on the head!! Well said!!!
Don't think we will get a raise - but maybe less nonsense
[ In Reply To ..]Tired of the stupid semi-promises that are alluded to in The Link and emails. It's a waste of time to try to interpret and I resent someone gets paid to create this junk mail/article while I struggle to make minimum wage on accounts that are filled with mumble mouths, ESL dictators or I run out of work.

Nuance Management
Jul 17, 2012
After being with Nuance for over 1 year, I am disappointed that all I ever hear is bad news. I strive to make each document excellent, not just good, but no one cares about that, all they want is LPH which mysteriously went from 100 to 200 for the same pay. Kudos is needed for us peons who work so hard to keep quality standards high. How about a raise? ...
To Nuance Management
Jun 12, 2014
Dear (and I use the term loosely) Nuance Management: I know you monitor this board, so I hope you’ll see this and take it to heart, but I doubt you will. You haven’t yet, so why should one more voice make any difference? There was a time when I cared. There was a time when I took pride in my work. There was a time when I really was glad I was an MLS, but no longer. Nuance has beaten that out of me, through FIESA and their arbitrary QC/QA practices. I can no longer say that I a ...
WHAT IS WRONG WITH NUANCE MANAGEMENT?!!!
Mar 21, 2014
It seems that Nuance has really gotten bigheaded. It really has become all about the mightly dollar to this company. No one is an individual anymore, no one gets treated like that anymore. We are alll just a number. This company has been horrible to work for. If you are not a manager and driving your team like a slave then you are performance managed out of the company. If you are a MT or QC and you spend too much time in the report because you actually care a ...

Not Management
Mar 08, 2010
I am not management! You just don't get it. I hate to say it, but many of you are too miserable here to see the good... for whatever reasons. I am an MT. I'm tempted to put my real name and MQ e-mail, but what for. I've said what I did because I am doing okay, because I have been through frightening changes before with MQ and it has always worked out. It seems foolish to tell you my real name though, as you mostly are a bunch of whining loser ...
New Management

Decided to send this note to our new management after the e-mail we got today about Mission One, whatever the heck that is. I know I'll never get a response, never do. But sometimes you just have to vent! Here it is: Hello. Everytime we get new management, I throw these questions out although they still have yet to be answered to any satisfaction. I've been with this company since WAY back when it took over Digital Dictation back in the 90 ...

Is It Some New Management Technique Not To Say Thank You To
Sep 22, 2010
I'm a high producer and self starter. I don't need hand-holding. But, geesh, it's just human nature to want to hear a sincere, individual compliment for a job well done sometimes, if for no other reason than it motivates me to do a better job and make the company more money. At some point, it seems most management has started to treat the worker bees as enemies instead of part of the team. It's short-sighted and lazy, and I know it has to be costin ...
Performance Management
Oct 12, 2010
I haven't been put on PM yet but fear I might. Got an email that said I had a "low-scoring feedback report." It was for using follow up instead of followup (I know better) and then omitting the word "the." Now, I will own up to these mistakes, they WERE my mistakes, but by no means life-threatening in any case. But apparently this caused my score to drop below 98%. Now I'm terrified they are going drop my pay by 3 cents a line, and I am already in danger of not being able to ...

Dear Management
Jun 09, 2011
Dear Management, I have enjoyed working for you for the past several years ... best place I have worked in during my 20+ years as an MT. HOWEVER, why do you find it ethical to find ways to sneak in the back door and take money out of my pocket, thinking I will not notice. Yes, I understand, you need your own line counting system because the one I type in for the client gives me partial credit for headers and footers, and of course I shouldn't get credit for those after ...
Incompetent Management
Jul 05, 2011
After years of going through this, finally I have no other conclusion to draw but that it's pervasive. I am talking about incompetent management. They talk about "the team" this, "the team" that. But they have NO concept of what teamwork is, so that is just lip service. If I make a very simple request for something that will make the work flow more efficient and help everyone, I am either blown off completely or told "we will TRY to do that, but we're ...

How Do You Get Management To Listen.
May 30, 2012
The MTs on my account have constantly complained about 1 doctor on VR who does not belong there!! We are simply typing his reports for the lesser pay. We have complained directly to our supervisor about it and nothing has been done because we do not send the reports to QA. Certainly, you can understand what he is saying, that is not the problem. The problem is he will not speak in complete sentences, and spells everything, so how can you send this to QA? It signific ...

Upper Management
Mar 28, 2013
Nuance has just had a MAJOR announcement! They are making changes to upper management AGAIN. It is no wonder we get paid crap. Look at their structure and they have WAY too many people in this establishment and all making way more than we do and we are the ones that do the work. Heck, they probably do not even know how to do transcription I bet. Greed, greed, greed. And I could care less about it. Give me the pay I am worth. They want better qualit ...
My Management Team Is Gone ... :(
Sep 18, 2013
The TSM and QC person I've worked with forEVVVVER in the west is gone, both of them being moved up into new positions, and dividing their accounts and the entire team of MTs/MMEs has been disassembled and moved to other areas. I am *terribly* sad about this because they were both absolutely amazing to work for, but I'm glad that I'll be staying in the Western region. My question is about my new TSM here in the West. Her initials are KP ... anyone working with her?&nbs ...
Let's Pretend That Management Comes Here
Nov 22, 2013
What suggestion would you like to make? Try to be more specific than "pay us more money." Pretend you're on a task force and (this is really a stretch I know) that someone values your opinion. What would you suggest? One of my top ones would be to fix the fuzzy physician search that has been disabled for almost a year. Another would be to get India on the same system we use, with Job Search available. It's obvious they don't have it because they leave so m ...

New Management Or MISmanagement?

Ever since getting a new COM, we've had no work. It started out slowly, but now it's every single day for several hours constantly in the morning and then intermittently throughout the day. All of our accounts are now overstaffed. I'm profiled for 5, which is VERY difficult! Are we supposed to sit here all day trying to work? How can this not be obvious to the COM's boss, whoever that may be? ...

Your QA seems to be fairly solid in their skill sets. The problem lies within your management tactic and a few key perso ...
