Synnernet EXTREMELY ABUSIVE to Employees - why would YOU work there?

Posted: Apr 08, 2013

Synnernet is HORRIDLY abusive to its employees/"staff". ... Continuously changing hours, pay, requirements, cherry picking the best jobs by some staff, rude from the top...

Someone needs to grow some hair on their chest and SUE SUE SUE

Well why don't you do it? - nm

Is this the same company as synernet or is it Synnernet? I was thinking about applying to them. If it is not Synernet then you need to learn to spell the name.

it is Synernet.. was thinking SINNER-net when originally typing - nm

This can't be Synernet in Maine.... - Synernet MT

I have worked for Synernet in Maine for almost 3 years and there is absolutely no way this could be the same company you are referring to, because none of this is true about the company I work for, not even remotely. Is there another company that spells their name with 2 Ns?

Synernet in Maine - yup

I have no reason to lie about it. There ARE employees OTHER than straight transciptionists.

Huh???? - Very confused

I work for the Synernet that is part of MaineHealth and this post makes no sense whatsoever. They never change schedules and pay has always been the same. It is also impossible to cherry pick on their platform, and I have never had anyone in management/QA be anything but extremely nice to me. The term "abusive" is completely laughable. It looks like someone has nothing better to do with their time and is trying to stir the pot for no apparent reason.

I too worked for Synernet out of Maine and never encountered any of this. Everyone from the top down to the QA staff were nothing but exceptional to work for. I was dealing with some extremely severe personal issues while working for Synernet and they were nothing but understanding and accomodating to my needs. They were more than flexible with me and more than willing to do what ever it took to keep me as an employee. The work was always there, the pay was great as well. There was no such thing as cherry picking due to the way the platform was set up. Granted they did have mandatory overtime at times, but I personally would rather have the overtime, than sit with another company wishing for work that isn't there. I would give my right arm to be an employee with Synernet again. Unfortunately my personal family issues won't allow me to pick up another job at the moment or I would apply again in a heartbeat.

The DOL is currently investigation Synnernet. From the looks of the Landmark investigation, they did not contact everybody, thus everybody entitled to a settlement did not receive one. If you have not been contacted by the DOL, I would suggest you hurry up and contact them and stake your claim ! No clue how long you needed to work there or what exactly they are looking at, but most like OT practices, falsifying time sheets and the like. ...

Just typed a report that I can honestly say is probably the most disgusting dictation I have ever done in 30 years. Dictator (ha ha - joke!) was chomping very loudly on chips, rustling bag and sucking and sloberring. If I were talking to a person doing that I would walk away so fast she would choke on her own slobber. Listening to it is abuse in my opinion. ...

I have been out of school since July 15 and applied to over 30 companies. I applied for this job at a company and haven't heard back yet. I am optimistic that I may get this job, but it is taking forever to hear back. Passed their first test, took the second one, now I am waiting to hear back if I got hired or not. In the meantime though, how do I find other companies online? I have looked everywhere and felt like I have already applied to every company online ...

I work for 96 physicians who (rightfylly so) expect the best and fastest quality transciption. However, when seen as a patient, I get the most horrid treatment (and fradulent) treatment possible (most most by clients.) I not only receive "steroid" injections that obviously have no steroids (only receive a few hours of pain relief) to dental care with crowns falling off after 2 weeks (I have had temporary crowns on as long as 3-4 years). These temporary crowns are put in and appointments reschedu ...

I was just curious about what employees thought of Nuance on Glassdoor. You read several US employee opinions and they reflect the morale listed on MTStars. Scroll further down and read the opinions of the transcriptionists from India. What a difference. They are highly satisfied with their jobs and most have been working with Nuance for 6 to 7 years. The US transcriptionists are very sad!! What a difference..... ...

I have been a transcriptionist for 15 years, all of which has been on Dictaphone EXText and now EXEditor. Why does my ESP in Dictaphone keep interfering? If I use an expansion and hit spacebar the ESP windows comes up, which makes no sense because ESP uses ctrl-ctrl to open? And how on earth do you learn it all? How will it benefit me after using thousands of ESPs daily. Help! ...

sort of things you're getting QA'd for, to compare notes. For instance, I'm new to VS, and I tend to leave in double words. I think what's happening is that I hear it, so my mind just blocks out the extra one and I don't see it. I spend a lot of energy trying to out-guess the QA, but no matter what I put in certain instances, I'm marked off. If I put "The patient," then she fills in the name. If I put the name, then she puts "The patien ...

I'd like to know how you are all dealing with it. Do you sit and wait on work during your scheduled shifts without getting paid? Have any of you filed for unemployment due to lack of work?

Someone jumps on this board, fires it all up by saying to use F11 for every ASR job, and then calls their CCM to say "read the MTstars board" and then they go check who is doing it and fires them, all the while the pot-stirrer looks all cutsie in the CCMs eyes and more work opens up for the pot-stirrer?Maybe it is my wild imagination, but it seems like all that "stop typing for a day" and if that does not work, then "stop typing for 2 days," and "use F11 for all ASR jobs," all feels so not ...
