spheris employees - how is it going so far


Posted: Jun 18, 2010

curious if you are still working your regular accounts?  Is everything they promised actually working out? 

I ask because I am now working on a Spheris account when I run out of work on my 5 other "primaries";)

Same old, same old... - Spherquister

Nothing has really changed for me. Still on the same account (thank the lord). We actually have no access to anything Medquist really. Everything so far is still done the Spheris way. They did change some things with the time clock, but other than that...same old, same old! I am part-time and only work 20 hours per week. Fortunately, they haven't told me I have to go to 24 hours yet.

curious - anon

I'm curious as to how you know for sure you are working on a Spheris account? Did you have our platform downloaded, or are they now sending Spheris accounts through MQ platforms now?

actually - after reading a few

more thread on this subject last night, I am now not 100% sure I am working on a Spheris account. It ironically came to us just after the merger, yet it is still on the DQS platform and not Cornerstone. I also saw that Spheris employees were complaining about their accounts suddenly being low. Sorry for any confusion.

Questions For Current Spheris Employees
Jan 25, 2010

I have an interviewed set up for Wednesday. From what I've read, I would prefer getting a job elsewhere but when you have bills to pay that's not always a viable option if nothing else comes along.1.  Does Spheris only hire employees, or do they also hire ICs? 2.  What is there requirement in terms of lines per day?3.  Do all MTs get the same line rate or do they pay based on experience? 4.  Are you required to do VR or can you request straight typing?6.  What ...

OMG How Funny - Read Glassdoor Opinion Of Employees, US Versus Indian Employees!
Aug 05, 2013

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..... ...


Spheris MTs
Nov 10, 2009

Hey Spheris MTs out there.  I worked for Spheris for a while not too long ago but quit for another company.  Nothing wrong with Spheris at all, just love the new company flexibility much, much more.  I loved the expander program Spheris used (Shorthand 10.0) so much that I ended up buying the program to use on my new job.  Problem is there are so many tips and tricks that Spheris provided for using Shorthand 10.0 that I never got to put into action and quit before I thou ...

Spheris Nightmares

Had nightmares about my company last night.  I was told to go in the office of my boss and do some punishment work.  I sat there in front of this blank computer, would not turn on, and something said to sit in her chair, since she was not there, and start opening all the books and do the worksheets about what a bad person/MT I was.  Then, she popped up in the back of the office in black.  Scary, evil woman!  She said terrible things, and just as I kept telling myself thi ...

http://nashville.bizjournals.com/nashville/stories/2010/02/01/story1.html?b=1265000400%5E2811471 By closing the curtains on its finances, Spheris has opened the door to speculation regarding its future. Whispers range from a sale to a bankruptcy, with the former gaining steam in the past week after a blogger in India reported competitor Cbay Systems Ltd. had struck a deal to buy Spheris’ operations in that country. Both Spheris and Cbay declined to address the potential sale. Spheris has ...


Spheris - Another Medquist
Jan 30, 2010

I had an interview with Spheris yesterday.  It sounds too good to be true - more per line than I'm making now, plus production bonus and weekend shift differential?  And better insurance too.  Okay. I worked for MQ.  My check got smaller and smaller as they revamped the bonuses and brought in VR (which absolutely refused to be taught anything).  So tell me the truth - would I be jumping back into the same fire with Spheris? ...
