Across the board pay cuts dropped my pay from avg 9.51 hr to 7.30 hr.

I want to drop to PT so I can find a different job. I'd love to flat out quit but I can't take the chance. But my question is, when you drop to PT, do you have to tell your CCM why or do you just inform her? I really don't have a problem telling her I can't live on these poverty wages, but let's just say she isn't my favorite person, but I know she will be nosey and ask WHY? Am I obliged to tell her? And how do you drop to PT? I ...

I put my heart and soul into this job, a job I used to get paid $20-plus an hour for, and my most recent pay check was only $297 for two weeks' work, part-time. Up until now I was getting a whopping $304 per pay period. Never mind trying to understand the pay stub explanations. Even the base pay is less than my state's minimum wage, which is puny at that. Yet they have the gall to complain over an ADT omission or a minor text error. I swear ...

Does anyone have an article that I think was posted here awhile ago about CBay's plans for cutting US MTs? It might have been an Indian article. Somehow the numbers 10,000 then down to 3,000 seem familiar, but I'd appreciate a link if anyone knows where to find this info. Thanks. ...

I can start looking for another job. Well, since you have to give 30 days' notice, I can't start PT until Dec 20, but whatever. My CCM didn't really seem to like it. Calling me up, "just want to know if there's a problem, so why are you going PT....are you looking for another job?" So many questions. I wish I hadn't answered the phone. Um, DUH, it's because I don't feel stable in this job. Tired of worrying if I w ...

mandatory OT. I'm too tired and burnt out, and my hands hurt too bad. It's having the opposite effect of what they're intending... I guess if whoever is making the mandatory OT decision knew anything about business, though, they'd know that too much OT for too long is counter-productive. ...

Anybody out there with SoftScript being bumped down to P/T for line count? Have been with them 11 months and have run out of work every single pay period with 7 different accounts. Nobody EVER, EVER answers any emails. Have never even heard from my PM. I get over 99.75% on every single audit, yet miss the count by 1 or 200 hundred and I lose even more money? Curious if it is just being done because of the new insurance laws. Putting everybody down to PT so they don& ...

We will obtain MRI with iec cuts on the right. ...

I am currently at the top of MME pay scale, where I just took a 13% pay cut. My question is where can I go from here? ...

Is there anyone else in any other capacity besides transcriptionists at Nuance who are getting their pay cut because they make a mistake? ...

Don't know why you all talk about 2 pay cuts when actually we have had pay cuts from them for years. How many have gotten a "cost of living" raise from them over the years or even a raise? ...

Nuance has gobbled up my company and I now have a $400 a month pay cut with their line rates - we all do! Can anyone recommend a stable company to try? ...

I am quite depressed to tell you the truth. Just curious how many of you have stayed or moved on. I am thinking of moving on. ...

So, since we have gone to nearly all ASR, and have taken a pay cut of 40% basically, I think it's time that burden be shared by all employees equally. I think it's time we hear that ALL employees have received a decrease in pay over what they made say 5 years ago. I will even be fair, since we have the CHANCE to make it up in production supposedly, and say just cut salaried employees pay by 25% instead of 40%, just so we can all be in this together. Before anybody ...

Is this common practice? I've worked for them for 7 years and now they are cutting our pay? I havent had a raise in those 7 years, and inflation just so happens to be raising all my gas bills, grocery, clothes, and utility bills... but i should take a pay cut? Is there ANY good company to work for out there that will pay 11 cpl or more ? I mean for heavens sake, I've got about 15 years experience... i'm not asking for more than mere chump change, but the ...

I think it is time for some complaints to state and federal labor boards. It is ILLEGAL for the Q to cut us to below the Federal minumum wage. ...

a buy-out by MQ and how much of a pay cut is the usual? Any insight would be appreciated. Contemplating a job change but would have to take a pay cut of about $50.00 a week. ...

WMX employees are notified we will find out pay adjustments to be made as we blend in with Nuance sometime in November. Sucks... Just at holiday time. Can you tell us, did they stick it to everyone down to the 8 and 4 cents per line? We have found out about insurance, but like every other company the insurance is high. We are just waiting to find out about pay. If they cut people make 9 or 10 cents per line down to 8 there are going to be some ticked off tooties. ...

I saw posts on here about Medscribe pay cuts and really didn't believe it until it happened to me. They lost their 2 biggest accounts, so what do you do, you cut the employees' pay who were bringing in the income. I only know of the one account they lost because it happened to be the one I worked on and my income went literally to 0. THEN when they finally decided to put me on another account, they cut my pay. Stick a fork in me. Once again, the greed in t ...

Wondering if anyone has thoughts on this subject. My state does allow filing for UNDERemployment due to wage cuts. However, in the past when my employer was bought out and wages were cut, I did not realize this was an option. If it should happen in the future, does the employee just decline the offer of a job from the new company and then is fired and then file for under-employment or take the job and file for under-employment? I doubt they would lay you off. Thanks ...

I have done the tutorials and been doing ASR for years and didn't know about the alt-K to break and capitalize. Maybe this old dog could learn one or more new tricks. Teach me everybody!! What are the best hot keys that really work? ...

I just checked my first paycheck with both weeks with the pay cuts plus the low work and being bounced all over to tertiary accounts I do not know well. Wow I am in shock. Wondering how others are faring I took about a 20% pay cut, and am single with children with prices rising, how in the world can we budget for this??? If this continues, I think I could qualify for food stamps. I am SOOO discouraged, all of my education and experience and CMT for this?? ...

Don't you just love the communication at Nuance? Just received an Email regarding new QA rules (new hoops to jump through for bonus), so disgusted I just deleted the message. Bringing the E5 *in line with the rest of NTS*? I don't want to know how much better and faster we are all supposed to be with WHATEVER technology you push out.... I just wanta say that some of you people in management had better learn to transcribe. And WTH is the learning module "Speak Hawaiian"....what ...

I'm having a problem and I'm not sure if it's Express Scribe or not...the information on their website leaves much to be desired, and I've got a paid version! Anyway, two nights in a row I've had audio disappear in the middle of a voice file...I've tried downloading it again, clearing out my audio history, everything I can think of, but no go. The person sending the files to me can hear the whole thing when they listen. Any thoughts or suggestions? &n ...

MedQuist ate up AllType and spit out the Radiology MTs. They have cut our pay in half, and just in time for Christmas! I guess instead of saying Happy Holidays, we will be screaming Homeless for the Holidays. And the "Manager" won't even respond to emails. This company does not care at all about its employees and is pure evil. ...

I work on the Beyond Text platform and would like to know if anyone knows the keystroke short cuts for Word 2003 while in a document (such as speeding/slowing dictation). Some of the ones listed under the tabs do not work for 2003. Thank you. ...

I'm waiting for the shoe to drop. ...

MedQuist said it reduced employee head count last year and lowered transcription costs by increasing its use of speech recognition technology. = employees took the loss while they got the gain! (Courier Post) ...
