Can anyone provide what it's like to work for this company? Do they have enough work, benefits, etc. Thank you

BAIT AND SWITCH COMPANY - Unreal

With all the posts below, and surely you have read them all, why would you even consider working for a company like this? Continue to support companies like this and all it does is breed more just like them.

OT - Happy SSMT

Do not let the BS MT (Bait and Switch) chase you away from SoftScript. Most of the postings below are by this one bad apple, obviously, as she uses the same wording and uses a lot of caps. I have been working overtime for weeks and I have health, dental, and vision insurance. Work is steady and the line rate is much better than where I used to work.

Line rate may be good BUT, platform is horrible - Me

Sure their rate is pretty good, but their platform is very, very slow. It takes literally 25 to 30 seconds to apply demographics on each job, which you DO NOT get credit for. Any job under a minute long, you spend more time applying democratics than you do typing the report! Rediculous!

Line rate isn't even good since you don't get paid for everything you type - Do the math

Rip you off of lines. Everything they do is underhanded. Stay away.

Happy SSMT is one of the managers - Oldie

I know who she is. It's always the same style. She types it under direction of HW. "Bad apple" is so typical of him.

my take on SS - memls

[ In Reply To ..]
I have been working for SS since a week before Christmas. What I don't like about the company: in this time I have only heard from my PM once, my mentor left to "pursue new career opportunities" two weeks after I started, and I had only heard from her twice before that time, most of my work/doctors are pretty easy to do but like someone said the platform is SLOW!! and takes forever to apply demographics, the pay is okay but with slow platform you don't make much. I had 2 hours training and my first night I ran out of work on my account and they put me on another which I had no clue what to do with, and that happened 3 more times so I have 5 accounts that they randomly give me work with very different account specs...Even though it is better than where I was (at Nuance) I am actually pursuing my own "new career opportunities"..do I hate this company? No..do I want to work for them any longer? No.

their recruiter seems to have - a nasty disposition

It seems to me that MTs are so used to getting treated poorly now that they don't even realize the disrespect that people in the industry have against them. This industry needs a huge overhaul. This company must have a huge turn around with the incentives that are being offered, $600 and $1200.

Anyone else on here get the email that Nuance wants copied and posted to social media? "Choose your own rate of pay on our compensation grid." There is no way I would recommend this place to anyone. "Sky's the limit!" What is the deduction in pay for that error? ...

Hoping to start a nursing program. I am 35 and have been a medical transcriptionist since graduating from high school. I would like to eventually obtain a Master's in nursing. I have been planning this for a while (almost two years), but I've been really nervous, so I have kind of put things off. I think one thing I'm nervous about is it is my first time going to college. I was trained for medical transcription at a technical school while still in hig ...

Just curious about this as the new increases in some states are more than what a lot of MTs make hourly, i.e. Seattle, Washington, $15.00 an hour. This won't affect me personally, but I wonder how MTSOs will be handling this situation. If an employee is paid on production but is an employee and not an IC, if she lives in Washington or another state where minimum wage is higher than what she is producing, how does an MTSO handle this? ...

to be cut. Right up there, global labor optimization and workforce reductions. "We've initiated a more formal program targeted to deliver $125 million in expense reductions by the end of FY '16. This initiative includes reduction to services and products from third parties, real estate site consolidation, streamlining management layers and global labor optimization, including workforce reductions. The program is already delivering measurable results." ...

The text of this post explains why it is never, ever, ever safe to utilize the email function associated with this board. Nuance really wishes this truth-telling forum would just go away, but all they are really capable of doing is blocking your computer's access to it. And yes, they do it even on computers that you personally own, not just the ones they provide. Their favorite ploy is to come on here posing as a very helpful MT and innocently suggesting, "I'm not really comfortable po ...

My company is switching to escription in a few months. We've heard the spiel from Escription. Now I would like to hear from transcriptionists who use it. What is the actual productivity improvement? Any gliches with the software? Do you like editing versus transcription? Do you earn more or less now? When your companies switched over to escription did the productivity improved as they said it would and how much reduction in staff occurred? We've been told people can edi ...

Just wanted to give a heads up to anybody considering this company. Even though they don't offshore, they are one of the worst bait-and-switcher MTSOs I've encountered. I was promised a non-overflow account by the talent acquisitions staff and then, once I actually started training, was moved to another account that at least had the work types I wanted. But that was only overflow, so I got put on a secondary with specs so ridiculously different from my primary that I would ...

They had me LOLing and appreciating the expressive writing skills of my fellow MTs. One especially good one is in toto below. We should all go on there and add to their sterling, well deserved reputation. This is in the public domain, so I don't think I am breaking any rules copying this, but by all means if anyone wants to put their name on this, I don't blame you. Great review of terrible employer. To wit: “Working for them is like drowning and they are holding your he ...

I just want to say I'm grateful for this forum and the people who take time to post. My local Craigslist (North Texas) had an ad today for an IC transcriptionist for Babbletype. I just googled the name and found an MT Stars Babbletype discussion from 2012. Thanks to all those comments, I didn't waste my time nor get ripped off. ...

I really hate to add to the conspiracy theories (as I generally just don't believe them), but I can't help but add to this one! I can definitely tell that the quarter is almost up because I've started receiving more and more post-audit reviews, and of course they are just enough to knock my out of the running for bonus, despite having a near 100% score of QC1 and post-audits earlier in the month. Any post-audit QA's out there want to comment on this? It's a ...

I am looking for a FT job with benefits and steady work. I am considering applying to these 2 companies so I am hoping some will share their experiences good and bad so I can have something to compare to. I currently am working on eScription through a local hospital as an IC so I wanted to apply at companies that I knew had eScription as I feel I am most productive on this platform. ...

Has anyone ever been an IC for softscript? I ask because I read the complaints that employees had, that they had to make up sick time and they're not at all flexible with scheduling. Being an IC would seem to solve that problem. Also, what sort of line count do they expect? ...
