Raise for Tier Level advancement - hopeso


Posted: Oct 25, 2010

Are we supposed to get a raise when we advance to a higher tier level?  TIA

I have never gotten a raise -- just steadier, crappier work - anon

That's what I was afraid of...CCM said I would get a pay raise, but it has been 3 months and nothing yet....so, guess I will give up on hoping for that...thanks....

raise - crappier work

I took on so called training for tier 2, which I already know the stuff and have been doing it previously with other companies for years, but noticed my paychecks going down and more ASR, so I just stayed tier 1 and make more money. I was getting really, really crappy work. I rarely run out of work and have regular accounts on tier 1.

Wonder if I can go back to Tier 1 from Tier 2..NM - hopeso

DO NOT GIVE UP....KEEP BUGGING YOUR CCM. - Sunflower

I was promised a raise when I tiered up to Tier 3 AND changed my schedule for them with the promise of a raise for that too...a sufficient raise.

Keep bugging your CCM or ask who their boss is and tell them you were promised a raise.

That is what I did. It took about 5 months of calling and calling, but I finally got it. I was speaking with the regional director and she got me my raise; however, it was not as sufficient as I thought it was going to be as I had gotten a bigger raise than this one some years before and was ticked off, but I won and I got my raise.

DO NOT GIVE UP!!!!

Does Your Company Offer Advancement Opportunity?
Feb 06, 2013

I am curious as to ways transcriptonists (of employee status, not ICs) might be advancing in their transcription careers other than being paid incentive line rates. I am thinking long-term. Do any of you get raises? If so, what kind? Are you paid per the line or hourly? Are there different levels of transcription in your place of employment with different pay scales? Do you make different rates for different dictators or work types? Are there any other kinds of advancement opportunities avai ...

I was just informed that I HAD to tier up.  Has anybody else been told that one?  I don't want to tier up.  I don't get much NJA and I like the accounts I work on.  I was told that I MIGHT get a raise if I did, but there was no guarantee.  Why would I want to tier up without getting a raise doing the next tier's work?  I just don't get it and I never will.  ...

Tier 3
Apr 06, 2013

What might be  happening is MM is keeping high producing Tier 3 employees and India will get all the easier work.  Tier 3's in America will do the hardest dictations and worst dictators.  The MME's in America will then be correcting more work because India will be doing everything else.  Just trying to figure out what is going on. Also, I think MM had to do something about the no work situation, either get more accounts or layoffs.  They decided layoffs. Than ...

How Much Raise To Ask For?
Dec 02, 2012

After being with my company for a year, I would like to ask for a raise (haha). How much would you ask for and hopefully receive? 1/4 cent? 1/2 cent? A full cent? I think I do excellent work. I monitor the accounts even on the weekends and jump on when it's getting close to being out of turnaround, unasked. My supervisor does not have to worry about these accounts as I have proven time and again that I am "on it". Taking some stress away from her deems to be a legitimate reason ...

To The 35% Who Think They're Getting A 13% Raise.
Dec 18, 2014

Could it be that the "13% increase" equals the amount of the quarterly bonus you were receiving? That's what mine equals out to be. I'm in that 35% and I am not getting a raise when I figure in the weekly and quarterly bonuses I previously received. I am sure some are getting an increase, but I would bet it's more likely to be 5% or less.

The extra keystrokes, shift+alt, multiple times for multiple jobs.  It all slows us down, and then you will complain about the backlog, and we are complaining about our dwindling paychecks.  Talk ...
