Let's be clear about hands-on managers - at Softscript

They are a significant part of the problem.

Along with upper levels they possess no ethics and apparently also lack cartilaginous tissue in the C-T-L spines to stand up and say they have ethics and will not go along with the unethical/illegal BS upper level suggests/dictates to them.

They have a choice and choose wrong. They could stand together in numbers and say NO.

You think upper level is going to find enough people to replace them all at once and not have serious damage to their profit. You think wrong.

NO ETHICS AND NO CARTILAGINOUS TISSUE IN SPINE. It is rampant in society today and beyond rampant in MT.

I think that point was made in two separate threads below. - we get it - no backbone in your opinion.NM

More to come in the near future.

God blesses you twice!

No fair complaining.

Oh my - nothing was said

[ In Reply To ..]
about posting. The only thing that was said is that you have a CHOICE TO READ OR NOT. Bright are you.

I encourage you to post away love. No complaining here! :)

'more to come' - starting to sound as a disgruntled worker - just looking to do damage now. NM

Much like the 'strike starter' on the main board.

Damage - ?

We love your entertaining posts!

Well at least SS does not send their work off-shore. I - plan on applying with them

[ In Reply To ..]
for that main reason. Nitpick on companies who off-shore their accounts, i.e., MModal and Nuance.

me too, was considering, now thinking not THAT bad from - reading into all these bashes. NM

No you are too funny. You probably gave us a - dislike

[ In Reply To ..]
because we disagreed with you about SS and gave yourself a like. I am the one planning on applying at SS and any other company that does not off-shore. I am fedup with losing my work to India. Remember, MTs will disagree with one another on this board and that does not make them management or "suits" as they get called. Get over yourself.

like I said believe whatever you can dream up. Does not matter. - but good luck with that way of thinking. SM

[ In Reply To ..]

oh, and here - I'm hitting the "dislike" button for you! lol

whups - this was for SS, not the post where it is attached. - forgive. so tired. NM

Horrible - exSS

[ In Reply To ..]
Please also realize when reading these posts, that some of them are actually written by SS management. I have seen enough e-mails written by them to know their writing style. That being said, here is my two cents. They were horrible. Abusive. Lack of work. Lack of accountability. Consistently contradicting themselves. You are expected to be there for 8 hours per day, but you are told to only account for the hours that you actually work. That single point alone contradicts itself. There is never 8 hours worth of work per day. Then, there is the line count. Your expected to do a certain amount of lines per day, but there are not enough lines provided to you. The expectations for hours and line counts is a built in firing point. I have all of this in writing and I am seriously considering legal action.

Think hard about Softscript - anon

I worked there for 3 years and at first it was okay (all typing, no VR) but then the work started to slow down and by the end I would spend my entire shift getting 5 jobs or less. I worked on 10+ accounts.

They don't have any of their own accounts, the simply do overflow, which makes the work sporadic at best.

It is just a fact. So, if you do apply, do NOT give up your other job.

If you monitor this board, then you surely have a modicum of an idea of how unhappy we MTs are with your so-called management. "Exciting News" doesn't cut it. FIESA (a.k.a. FIASCO) is only something to demoralize and demean us. The Link is a waste of time. MT Week and its games, etc., is meaningless. When are you going to do the right thing and take note of what we've been saying to you all along? When people just don't care any more, when they ...

I have had only good experiences with TT account managers. They have always answered my emails promptly and been very willing to be flexible with my scheduliing. AD has always taken the time to make personal phone calls to MTs when more info is needed or something didn't go through the system, to make sure they get paid on time. I'm sure they share our stress over the accounts going to EPIC. I just wanted them to know they are appreciated for all their hard wo ...

If any TSMs, Regional Managers or executives are reading posts on this site, I don't know how you sleep at night! We, as MLS', know exactly what is going on, even though you think we are stupid. The only reason you have implemented the "Patient Safety Compensation Plan" is to pay us less so Nuance can make more money, it has nothing to do with patient safety, it is corporate greed so STOP all the lies!!! Also, please save all the crap at the end of the "updates" ...

I was just offered a position at SS a couple days ago, but my experience with the recruiter was less than inviting. She was rude and very impersonal. If I were a company, I would want the first impression to be a great one. I accepted the position, but I'm really not sure I want to work there, if this is how you're treated BEFORE you're an employee. Anyone know how it is to work with managers, etc. or anything else about SS? ...

How would you feel if your superior/boss/CEO emailed you and stated there is nothing for you to do this week, so you won't be getting paid; HOWEVER, you must be available in case there is work, so make sure you sit there by the phone so we can call you if we need you and you better be available IMMEDIATELY. We expect work to be available next week and you can just cram in 80 hrs to make up for the lost week of work. How does that sound? What the hell is wrong with these companies promisin ...

I read about this a lot, and really wonder why does a company over-hire? Why can't they start off with a few MTs so they can feel-out the account and number of jobs? Then, if needed, they can hire what they REALLY need. I was hired on for a new account and they obviously over-hired for it... we're really struggling with work, or lack thereof. I've adjusted my schedule three times too. Even with the addition of several other accounts, I'm sti ...

I personally know someone who works as a middle manager for Nuance, makes well over 50,000 and has had constant raises since being hired. From what she tells me she is very effective, but even the other middle managers who are not at all effective with huge make up costs and teams who fail audits constantly do not get terminated. Plus, they do not have to be MTs. They just sit in their home office and write rah rah emails to their team to keep them going and make sure they cove ...

If we think things are bad NOW with NJA and work flow ... just wait. Each Workflow Manager has only been given ONE "POD" so far but as of this week, they will each be given a SECOND POD to oversee, each POD having at least 200 employees. The Workflow Manager that I've been assigned to told me on the phone this morning that her mind-bending work load is about to DOUBLE and that she will be overseeing 400 employees. She said she hopes she didn't make a big mistake by ta ...

I get tired of reading that hospitals only want CCS credentials. That completely depends on the hospital. What should be said is INPATIENT coding is CCS and OUTPATIENT is CPC.

Someone coming here for information on becoming a coder should find out where they want to work and what type of coding credential tha ...

I have worked for Hands-On for a few years now and I think it is a well run company. I recently had surgery for breast cancer, and the owner and manager were very compassionate and concerned for my well being. They are always available to help if I have a question. It is one of the best jobs I have had. You have to work hard, but after all it is a job and if you follow the "rules and regulations" regarding quality of work and turn around time you will get along just fine. You also transcrib ...
