The person I interviewed with was really sorry to say but quite unpleasant. Glad you commented because my gut was telling me something was not right with this company...ty for posting.

You're not even going to back that up with an explanation as to why you say they are so horrible?

I worked there for a little over a half decade. It really depends on who is your supervisor. Sherry is really cool. If you have her as your supervisor you'll be fine.

I have worked at Precyse for a very long time and I disagree with the original poster. I'd like to know what it is about Precyse that he/she thinks makes them such an awful company.

There probably isn't a reason that they are "horrible" aside from the fact that this poster was not hired by them!

Let people post what they want without getting catty. Why would you defend a company anyway, what do you care what someone thinks of it...think of it as your job security - no one wants it.

some more explanation but she got attacked. Figures. These boards are full of mean, angry, witchy people. The very few who are positive get jumped. Sad little people trying to start a fight.
pros and cons of precyse - Samantha
[ In Reply To ..]
My experience with Precyse:
Pros: Pay on time. Was only late one time out of all of the years I was there and I can't even remember why it was late that one time but it was taken care of readily.
Pay more than other companies I have interviewed/tested with.
For me a pro is most of the work is voice recognition and little typing.
Will not run out of work if you have Sherry as your supervisor and you are willing to learn another work type. There will be the usual slow periods-but that's the norm for this industry.
Precyse provides your computer.
BCBS for insurance (at least when I
was there).
Work flexibility, just make sure you send in the note to the work flow coordinators.
If you have Sherry for your boss she is pretty fair. Not so much for the others.
Cons: This is just my experience.
We were not suppose to send more than 7% of our work to QA----- which sometimes I resented because if you have an account where the doctor cuts off his dictation, forgets to scan demographics, etc. they all count against you. I wish they would have split it according to if you actually had a blank versus you are sending something to QA because of the doctors. Again, if you have Sherry as your boss, no problem she doesn't ride you about that, unless its unusually high, which I'd expect, but if you have another one for your boss ............
If you have any other boss and I can't name her and you are on her bad side for whatever reason, you will run out of work, she will harass you over petty things because she is a petty person. She will not answer your e-mails.
Some of the other staff you come into contact with are not so professional, but luckily you work at home and don't have to deal with them face to face. Avoid contact with the snooty ones.
Sometimes it can be stressful (but that's the nature of transcription) because more and more is expected of us as transcriptionist and really in my opinion we get very little in return. I'd advise going to school to get out of transcription if you can or have the desire (yes I am going to college myself).
The industry itself in my opinion takes advantage of us, but that's the industry and not just Precyse.
Some of the QA is downright nasty and rude and lie. Avoid them if you can. Just try to pass your audits so you can have as little contact with them as possible.
Luckily I found a smaller transcription company that has been good to me. I just hope it last until I can graduate in about 1.5 years.
Again, this was my experience with Precyse. I now there are people who love Precyse. I'd like it there as well until I got the supervisor from hades.

I am a current Precyse employee and agree with everything you said, except that Sherry is the only good supervisor.
It is rather clear to me that you are referring to TN as the supervisor from Hades! I agree that Sherry is the best, but RB is also good.
QA can definitely be downright rude with their holier than thou attitude, they have apparently never made any mistakes! Though there is one good QA person - JA
For anyone considering Precyse for employment - they do still have BC/BS insurance.
Thanks - Samantha

Thanks for the feedback! If you stay under radar, work your schedule, keep in touch with the WFC, make up any hours, and meet the line count, Precyse is doable----- from what I am reading more doable than Nuance.
I forgot one more pro: They are giving raises now and annual reviews!
YES! and she will be there forever because - her sister is

THANK YOU! - MT

Thank you for that info! I knew she was related to someone (it was quite clear since she is not at all qualified for her position) but didn't know who her sister was!

Command between those 2 is in cahoots with them and they all came at about the same time from the same place. TN used to have many paragraphs in her qualifications, about speaking several languages, having all kinds of degrees, working in other countries, being a transcriptionist, etc., all lies. Guess they actually checked into it and all the "accolades" and experience disappeared from Linkd-in a while ago. LOL! She was the worst excuse for a supervisor I ever had in over 40 years of transcribing. Being set up and fired from that place was a true blessing.

The TRUTH About Precyse Solutions - STAY AWAY! Aug 24, 2011Actually, several truths about Precyse that current or prospective employees should be aware of:
1. Recently, an entire group of employees was laid off who had been there for years and had been great employees. I was one of these people. The official company line is something like "Processes have become so efficient that we no longer need nearly as much staffing as we have had in the past." The truth is that the company is pushing to move all work over 2 hour TAT to Indi ...
HORRIBLE COMPANY!! Jan 03, 2014I would just like to say that Nuance is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! If you are thinking about working for this company, DON'T! Second, I was wondering if anyone knows who I can call about my pay check. I was lead to believe that everyone got paid on 12/27/2013. That would have been my first and ONLY pay check with them as I quit a week after I started, but I have yet to recieve that pay check.

Resigned From This Horrible Company! May 31, 2015I quit with NO notice 3 months ago and sent a scathing resignation letter, the BEST thing I ever did!!!

Does not sound like much but considering that my salary had steadily decreased with "Screwance", it's awesome! No stress, no crappy emails letting me know I made an error, ...

It Seems Everytime Someone Asks About A Company They Are Told STAY AWAY.. So Here Is My Question.... Jan 15, 2011Who do you work for then? If every company is horrible.. what do you do? It seems there are no recommended companies anymore, not one. In that case, it would seem that maybe everyone should start looking for a new career, no?
Im not being negative...or mean. I am just curious. Where do you go from here when the pay is low, or the company is horrible?

Would You Stay With Your Company If They Started Sending Some Work Overseas? May 11, 2012My company has begun, one by one, sending accounts overseas. We only have one account left being typed by those of us in the US, and I imagine that one is going over there soon. They lie to us about where the work is going or tell us that there's just not a lot coming in. But MT's can go into each job typed and also see the amount of work coming in. It's obvious that the jobs are now being typed by people whose first language is not English. I'm ...

M-modal Being Horrible Jun 07, 2010I know there are a lot of comments on here about M-modal being horrible and I have to definitely agreed, it is the only VR I have used so nothing to really compare it to but cannot do many more lines per hour than I transcribe (usually about 275 lph or so), anyone willing to share how much they do on M-modal and how long the account has been on VR?

Started My First Job, But It Went Horrible! Jun 08, 2010Hey everybody,
I just needed to vent a little bit. I started my first day on my first job, and it went absolutely horrible. I was using the Emdat InScribe platform, which seems easy enough, but they have sooo many templates that the doctor should be using and isn't. My first few reports were okay, but then everything went downhill. I'm supposed to use the templates, but half the time, I had to erase 3/4 of them because it wasn't what he was saying. The wrong templates would load, ...
