Transcend Rad - good or bad please? - seeking change


Posted: Sep 13, 2010

I have an interview with Transcend soon - how does their rad pay?  Is there any work?  Can you actually pay your bills with your paycheck?  Any feedback appreciated.

Depends - if you get a straight typing account, they start new hires at $0.90 per report. Not positive about VR, but I believe that is same as MR - 4 cpl or so. People cherry pick...and this is allowed if you are a favorite, no sense mentioning it. Your one weekend day is a waste of time...never enough work, but you still sit there all day. The accounts have to be cleared out every night, TAT is 2-4 hours. When I left, they were contemplating sending any leftover work offshore, probably have done so by now. Transcend has and will continue to cut pay, benefits, etc. which is why I left. Good luck.

The same story with all their accounts - except for maybe the pay - n/m

9 cents per report - is this a typo or correct

Sadly, it doesn't sound much different than the job I'm looking to leave.

Forget your interview. I had one as well scheduled for this week and just received e-mail that they have filled the position.

me too - how rude is that? - sss

[ In Reply To ..]
they can keep their cheap-o 90 cents per report. This has never happened to me before - very unprofessional.

Me 3 - OP

Guess they're all about playing games, huh?

Atleast you guys got an interview - My resume will be on file - whatever!

Can Anyone Tell Me Anything Good About Transcend?
May 02, 2011

  I am currently working for a small service, doing only clinic work. I come from over 20 years of acute care and recently started working here. I have found what I suspected is true, that I am making only a percentage of what I made in acute care. The accounts are fine, the management and QA is totally wonderful, but the 3 and 4 second reports just don't cut it. I applied to Transcend and have read much negativity about them. Just wondering if there is any good in them? I also applie ...


Transcend - Any Good Feedback?
Feb 04, 2011

Just wondering if anyone who works for Transcend currently has any good things to say about them.  I've seen all the bad posts on the board, so just wondering if there is any good to be said or anyone who works for them who is happy to work there.  I know they have the $900/pay period instead of production limit and editing work.  I was interviewed by them and I would be getting more pay per line for both typing and editing and compared to my current situation of having no wo ...

Hi, I would appreciate input on Transcend please-- the good, bad, and ugly!  Particularly interested in rate of pay, if pay is on time, if they hover or leave you alone to do your work, whether they're well organized or not, if there are tons of account specs or not, ease of platform use, etc.  Thanks! ...

2014 - Not A Good Year For This MT — But I Found A Good Fit (finally)
Jan 12, 2015

Rarely do I start discussion on mtstars - however, 2014 was a particularly challenging year for myself - an experienced MT/Editor (15+ years). However, I realize that many other MTs may be in the same position, i.e., having many years devoted to working at the Big MTSOs including “the M,” and “the N” and (now to be included) “the T” following close behind in total numbers of MT/Editors on staff. (Hint: Sure most of you know the M, the N and the T - and the names have been int ...

VR At Transcend
Nov 18, 2009

Did VR develop Alzheimer's?  It has lost everything.  I am tired of no commas, periods, and everything else it reverted back to since its infancy.  It is really true that now you can transcribe faster than you can edit.  Does anyone even care?  Do you know how many times you have to stop in the middle of labs to put in punctuation?   This has been going on for over a month and I haven't noticed any big push to get it fixed.  Just another way to m ...

Transcend TLs ??
Feb 08, 2010

I am curious as to if the TLs are meeting their requirements.  They are expected to type 75-80% of their time and get paid by the line as well .  I am very suspicious that they are not typing VR all day, having their work sent to India, etc, and are getting the straight typing.  They get paid a flat fee per month for their administrative duties on top of that.  I wonder if they are experiencing no work and looking at a blank screen most of their time& ...

Is There More Than One Transcend? I See Their
Mar 19, 2010

job ad on the Seeker's board and it sounds like a place I would like to work.  I work for a company also called Transcend, but they are not a place that I would recommend to anyone.  I haven't worked all week as there has been no work.  Just NJA. So maybe this Transcend is in a parallel universe.  It certainly could not be the same place where I'm employed.  ...


About Transcend
Mar 28, 2010

I have read dozens of posts on the board about Transcend, some good and a lot not so good.  However, I think there is an explanation for some MTs loving it there and others hating it so much. Transcend is a company made up of many other companies through mergers. The original Transcend who existed first, before acquiring other companies seems to be the problem.  On the other hand, for example MDI/Transcend, for the most part does not seem to fit that description. You have to remember ...


VR With Transcend?
Apr 21, 2010

I'm coming to the realization that unless I get faster with editing these VR reports, I am never going to be able to make the full-time production requirements at Transcend.  I'm really freaking out.  Is it really possible to do 300 lines per hour in VR?  How long does it take to get faster with it?    ...

Google Star Clip Itz Note Holder w/ Metal Rod & Alligator Clip to see exactly how much it cost Transcend per MT for this gift that bears so much thought and appreciation.  Do they really not realize how it affects their corporate image when their priority is placed on spending $600,000+ on a failed business venture versus the amount spent to "appreciate" the motor that makes their business run?  That's like spending more than a half million dollars to buy a garage to hous ...

I was with the company for over five years, not once failing to meet the requirements of me yet I was told my position would have to change to 2nd or 3rd shift if I wanted to keep my job as there were no positions available for 1st shift.  Two days after resigning I see they are hiring for 1st shift positions on a typing only platform which is what I wanted. I just don't get it. ...

Transcend/DTS
Jun 25, 2011

Did anyone else get the memo from Transcend (soon to take over from DTS) about the line rate change for the transitioning employees from DTS?  It was elegantly written, but basically it said that when the accounts are switched over the VR that the line rates will decrease but productivity will increase and no cut in pay is expected.  It is happening exactly how the posters on this board that have been through takeovers by Transcend said - decreased pay. I gave my notice already BT ...
