Has anyone heard of Synernet? and is it a good company? what is the dirt on this place?

Good gig - Jolly MT

Pay is average with the rest of the companies. fantastic benefits. platforms are none of the mainstream but not horribly cumbersome. Staff is great.

You do have to adhere to a schedule (and I do mean adhere)

I have heard nothing but GOOD about this company by several people. They are based in Portland, Maine. I live in Maine and have tested for them, but at the time they had no openings. Their clients are in Nothern New England as well as nationwide, and one of their accounts is a large hospital in the city I live in. They are hospital owned - I don't know if they are owned by the hospital in my town though.

To Jolly MT - I am just curious if this is one of the 33 companies you applied for due to your "research" or if you were actually interested in employment there. Also, do you live in Maine?

Yes, a good company - No fan of transcribing, BUT...

I work for this company and aside from some extremely minor things (occasionally have to wait longer for responses to my questions than I might like) consider this a company worthy of your labor. They are fair, the platform has been changed and is much more transcriptionist-friendly, and there are not the time-wasting fluffs some employers subject their workers to: no silly e-mails begging for responses, no intrusive IMs: you are treated as if you are the learned and responsible, professional adult that your experience in this field has made you. Go for it.

I have an interview with them coming up. They seem like they have a good reputation and the benefits look really good. One thing I am wondering about them is just how flexible are the schedules? For example, right now I am able to work a regular 2nd shift position with no problem (I currently work 2nd shift and prefer it to other shifts), but when school starts my kids will have sports and Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts and I have to take them to their meetings. The place I currently work at, they ...

I just applied at Synernet and took their test. It was pretty easy. Has anyone ever worked for them? How is the pay? It says in the ad that they have excellent benefits. Are they fairly flexible as far as scheduling? Any feedback would be appreciated. They sure sound like a decent company! ...

First the dire email: Mandatory OT by end of week with at least 2 hours on Saturday. Just forget if you had plans for the weekend. Say what time you will be working and have to work those hours and put who okay'd those hours on your timesheet (you might lie you know). So you do that because you want to help the company out and it's nice to have OT again. So today, email, oops, some people cleaned up all the work so no OT today, but still MIGHT have it on Fri and Sat. Just stay tuned a ...

I am applying for a job with Synernet and will be testing tomorrow. Can anyone tell me approximately how many lines I'd need to type a day to make... lets say 80-85 dollars a day? I'd appreciate any rough ideas please. I know that most companies have really dropped their cpl since I stopped transcribing years ago, but wow! It's gonna be a challenge to make some money I guess! ...

This msg goes out to J and V. I would love to email or call you and address my concerns over this but I could not trust that my name would not be brought up and I would just have hell to pay later. I (we) would love it if you would do something about the supervisors cherry picking their work types. Why dont they work from a pool like the rest of us? It is obvious when certain report types (PE tubes, T&A's, cataracts, etc. etc. are being done by t ...

Anyone ever applied to Synernet and been rejected saying you did not pass their test? I just completed an online assessment and they said I did not pass it, which is bull crap. I would stake my life on it that I DID pass it. What is their problem? I have been working for 38 years and I certainly know everything they asked. I want to see the results. ...

Anyone out there working for Synernet who has also worked for other companies? I was an IC before joining Synernet a few years ago. They are paying me .7 cpl, no flexibility unless per-diem and then per-diems still have to work 2 holidays a year, lots of vaca time but can't use 2 weeks in the summer until I've been there 10 years, management impossible to get response from regarding any type of question, just got thrown into weekend rotation, etc. After looking at boards I see th ...

Just curious, I'm trying to decide between a few companies and I totally forgot to ask the interviewer. I think the whole VBC thing is criminal. It's bad enough not being paid for all of the research, demographics and CCs we do, but to not pay for characters that we actually type just because they don't print out in black and white is OUTRAGEOUS!!! ...
