Superior Global Solutions - tough company decisions - hsp

Posted: May 21, 2014

Just wondering how many SGS MTs got the "phone call" yesterday and got laid off. I was told I was not the only one. But only reason was "tough company decisons". I asked directly if it had to do with peformance, and the answer was "no". Unemployment????

I am not associated with SGS - but just wanted

to let you know how bad I feel for you being treated that way. No matter what tough company decisions needed to be made, treating you and others like that is inexcusable. I do hope you are able to find employment even though being a MT is not a profitable endeavor, but if that is what you do, I hope you can pay the bills. If you were an employee I sure hope you are able to collect UE. To me it is sickening that companies feel they are entitled to treat other human beings in such a disrespectable manner.

It is all a game now and you don't pass Go and collect 200$ - You go to jail.

File on line for unemployment benefits. They will deny, but I do think that the UE offices are aware of this profession and what it has done to us. Maybe. You may have a phone call and then have to go and explain or do it via the internet. Be prepared to feel more hopeless, helpless, and worthless.

OP is entitled to UE... anon - Peanut

She was told she was laid off and specifically told it was not a performance issue. When you apply for UE tell them exactly what the CEO told you. I doubt you will be denied, so just go ahead and apply.

UE and SGS to the OP - mtinnm

Since you had the call yesterday, also document all of that call in as much detail as you can recall as well as who it was that called you, the day and time and day of the week. This could possibly help you when applying for UE and appealing any denial, which I believe you can appeal the denial. Document as much as you can.

I was one of them.. for weeks I asked for new accounts, because I was not getting steady work, tried to improve my line counts, MISSED my aunt's FUNERAL to stay home to work only to get canned that day! Biggest regret of my life chosing work over family. Yes I filed for unemployment...

I'm sorry for your loss. May she rest in peace. - GO GET YOUR MONEY! nm

I got the phone call too citing changes in the company and "as of now your services are no longer required." Just like that. I had one account that up till this year was bursting with available jobs, at the start of this year the jobs dwindled tremendously. My team leader hardly ever answered emails or questions and was no leader. The easy dictators on the account stopped coming into my queue anymore even though they still worked there and were referred to my speakers and we all know SGS controls that. SGS is cruel, cold and mean-spirited.

They have NEVER held a check, they have NEVER not paid me, bounced a check or any of those other things I have read. In fact, they usually send the check a few days earl ...

I worked about 3-4 weeks for SGS. The people were really really nice. The pay was on time. The problem lies with too many Q.A. people and all having different opinions and no one agreeing on the same thing. They nick-picked me to pieces. I had a job come up today and it was a STAT. I had no idea it was stat. I was in Q.A. being checked for everything, so I was doing my normal be careful speed and they said hurry it up. So, I did and then they would not let me have the line count ...

I have been looking for an hourly QA job for a while now and realizing that I made 18,000 last year with a good education and lots of experience really put the emphasis on how much I want to go hourly. I am (I think) good at what I do and pride myself on accuracy. Editing offshore work on production pay isn't working for me at my current position because the reports are a mess and take FOREVER. At any rate, I've sent out about 8 resumes so far in the last 3 weeks with ...

I cannot for the life of me figure out whether Superior Global Solutions out of Plano, Texas offshores or not. There is a sentence on their web page that says "....and US and internationally based labor", and I have searched high and low on the web for any kind of good or bad about them and can find nothing! I have heard now from a couple of people that they are a good company and so I was going to apply until I read that! I even searched for a list of US medical transcrip ...

To sum it up, I just got back from the unemployment office. But for more details of it, here ya go. I had just become certified and was notified of a paid 90-day internship with Superior Global Solutions (SGS). I quickly accepted the offer given that so many people I know have such a hard time finding work in their field. This internship popped up a week after becoming certified. I just wanted experience more than anything. I went through the 90-day internship with SGS and was really ...

Passed their tests. They wrote me a congratulatory email and a phone call that told me I passed. Told me I needed Word 2003 (do you know how HARD it is to get Word 2003 anymore?). Cost me $140.00 but I got it. Sent in computer specifications, passed. Gave former employer 5 days notice (SGS wouldn't hold my new job for 2 weeks, gave me only 5 days). Received paperwork in email in the morning. By 2 PM, received phone call, "we are withdrawing our job offer". When I could get ...

I recently interviewed for this company. Spoke with a recruiter and hiring manager. They were offering 2nd and 3rd shifts. They provide 12 PTO days per year to be used after the first 3 months, 401 K, and benefits. The accounts they offered me were 100% domestic; however, they do off-shore some of their other accounts. Both gals seemed very nice, but the pay is very low. They pay 0.38 cpl for VR edited lines and 0.83 cpl for transcribed lines with 90% of their work being VR editing. How can one ...
