I think the company heads that merge with Transcend are lied to as well. sm - gg


Posted: Nov 25, 2009

I did not blame the company I worked for for selling out to Transcend as I figured they were told the same thing we were told, which was that nothing would change and their transcriptionists would be treated fairly.  I think when things do change you can't blame your old company for that since they are probably surprised by it all just like you are.

Nonsense! - Wise old crone

I beg to differ that the company heads that merged with Transcend did not know what was going on. People do not get companies to the point where they sell for 16 mil without having lots and lots of savvy. You are in denial. They bought and sold us (out). That's the way business is done these days. Wake up and smell and coffee.

Isn't that called accquisition and mergers? - Jenny

TSM Lied

Always telling us we should log off every time we were away from the computer for more than 10 seconds.  I have been doing this since the last benefit rate period, and now my rate is lower than ever.  I should have known better than to trust her, as she is constantly babbling on an on about how ASR is "learning."   ...


Hate Being Lied To

My old manager (LC) informed me via telephone last week about the whole POD thing and how I'd be getting a new manager, etc., etc.  She said she was going to be the person who now does alll the Teamwork stuff.  She LIED.  Bold faced lied to me (and about 100 of you).  She is not moving over.  She's moving out.  She probably did it to save face, not have to answer a gazillion questions, etc. but now I just feel betrayed.  100% betrayed.  So in an ...


Tired Of Being Lied To And Never Being Able To Pay Bills
Oct 26, 2011

So this last place I started working said "these are old accounts that are not going anywhere."  Hmm, so why did I get an email last night saying they were keeping all work inhouse?  I am so sick and tired of worrying about money.  The really sad part is I have already applied everywhere and no one will hire me (Wal-Mart, McDonald's).  Just so tired of it all.  I wish someone wrote a book and entitled it How to be Homeless because that is what I am going to be. ...

about the rate of pay.  It is ridiculously low as it is and they said they were implementing higher pay.  I have been here 3 months now and no changes.  On top of that, they charge us to work for them!!  I am going to tell them what I think of this.  I have nothing to lose!!! ...


Has Transcend Become A Better Company Recently?

I am trying to narrow down some companies to work for and have a job offer on the table from Transcend.  Some of the posts on here and on glassdoor are negative, but are from early 2010 or older.  Has anyone had more recent experience with them?  Fear I'll be jumping out of the pan and into the fire. ...


DTS / Transcend - DTS Employees Transitioning To The New Company
May 11, 2011

I went through the Transcend orientation yesterday for (former) DTS employees transitioning to the new company.  It left me very, very, very sad.  Transcend's methodology is so different from DTS.  The requirement of the $900 per pay period of full-time employees will be so difficult to achieve on this new BeyondText speech recognition as my pay will be cut based on what other MTs have told me!!!  (That and IF the work is available which in the past with DTS has been very off and on.)  ...


North Merge
Jan 18, 2010

Uniworx To Merge With Viva
Feb 18, 2012

Anyone on here currently working for Uniworx? I'm curious as to your thoughts of the merger with Viva. I'm having a hard time with getting on the new email account they set up for me (sometimes I can get in, other times it tells me that my username doesn't exist).  I thought maybe if anyone that peruses this site works for Uniworx maybe we could all share our thoughts together of the merger, yet still be anonymous and feel safe about it. MTs working at home don't have th ...

Just A QA Heads Up
Dec 18, 2012

I've only recently discovered this.  If doctor dictates the age of TP and it's wrong, but you can look at the demo and fix it, don't.  Just blank it.  I just had a major error come to my E-mail about this.  I had changed the age, probably because the physician stated it wrong.  However, when you look up a report in escrption, it doesn't tell the patient's date of birth so you have no way to prove anything.  I'm blanking from now on. &nb ...


HEADS UP REGARDING ASR
Jan 06, 2014

We all know this, but it seems things are getting worse with regard to ASR. I've been noticing it is substituting right for left and vice versa even though the dictation is crystal clear. Also, it is substiting Mr. for Mrs. or Ms. and vice versa even though the dictation is crystal clear. As someone noted previously, it is still making blatant errors in numbers (ages, lab values, vital signs, etc.). These are only a few out of a zillion examples lately. I'm thinking that ASR is regress ...


ANP Transcription - Heads Up To Everyone Out There

Just wanted to give a heads up to everyone out there.  I have been working for ANP Transcription out of New York for three months now and will NEVER work for them again.  They push, push, push for work to get done but can't seem to send out paychecks on time.  I have had to call and email each month.  Mysteriously, my very first paycheck didn't make the check run and my second check I was told was mailed out on July 9, but I have yet to receive that one, too. ...

If you have one of those accounts where they want all medication allergies capitalized, note that DQS 7.1 DOES NOT pick up all-cap typos/misspells.  This would include typos in the physical exam as well if the subheadings are all caps, but the medication one is more critical. Geeeeeeez.  Just when you think you're sailing along...   ...

Heads Up To The MT's Being Picked To Death. Sm
Dec 11, 2009

Hi folks, I'm an MME and just want to know that I don't like picking your reports to death.  When I have to correct a report, I usually leave comments to help you along.  However, we were told that if anything is missing from the ADT screen, or if we see 1 little mistake, we have to review the whole report.  If the ADT screen is correct, then, unless you're on 100%, we just correct where the QA marker is.  I can't tell you how many times the date of s ...

Precision Transcription -- A Heads Up

I just noticed on another board that this company posted an ad and I wanted to give those of you thinking about applying for the company a heads up.  I worked for the company for a short period of time.  I believe she will hire newbies to MT which is a positive.  However, there is "no pooling of the work types."  There are accounts that are both straight typing and VR, and since straight pays more, you have more people doing that than the VR work.  There are also, what I ...

I just got through with my 8 hours for the day. I could have worked longer, there was work left and my company does not mind.

I have had people dicating for doctors who are ESLs themselves!! I was told not to change their verbs and such, leave as is. That grates on my last nerve.
