Number of employees at Nuance - anon
Posted: Jul 24, 2013
Just wondering if anyone knows the total number of US transcriptionists currently typing for Nuance. With their turnover rate, not sure how anyone is left!

Does anyone really know the answer to this? Would love to know the breakdown - US/foreign, total employee count. Especially would love to know the turnover percentage and percentage of employees they have with over 5-10 years of experience, since I would expect anyone with those years can get a job just about anywhere else, but suspect these are closely guarded secret, lol!
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 was thinking it would be interesting to know how the numbers have changed in the last 5-10 years, looking at their employees in the US versus overseas. Does anyone know if there is a place to find this information?

receiving a Nuance 401(k) Summary Annual Report? I haven't worked there for almost two years and didn't even participate in their 401(k) plan when I did work there, and I'm still getting these annual summaries. Anybody know what phone number I can call to request exclusion from their mailing list? TIA. ...
Employers must allow 3 PAID sick days per year if they weren't already doing this. I am sure Nuance will HATE this and are probably right now putting their fat heads together trying to come up with a way to get out of it. First, they won't even acknowledge it, hoping no one will call them on it. If that doesn't work, they will think of something else. ...
I'm reading about the difference between the two of these, and it looks like the employer withholds a portion of your income to cover medical expenses. I don't know if that has to be offered by the employer or if it can be set up somehow by anyone who qualifies due to a high-deductible insurance plan. Do you currently have any HSA or FSA arrangement with Nuance? ...
Does anyone know if we get a gym discount or anything similar? Where can I find information about this? TYIA.
(I need to find a punching bag and punch the $#!+ out of it to get rid of some frustration.) ...
Today I received an e-mail from Nuance about their 401(k) plan. I haven't worked for them in a year and a half. Did any other ex-Nuancers get this? Unfortunately, there's no "unsubscribe" option on that e-mail. I can't believe my e-mail address is still in their system. ...
From comments below, but worth highlighting ...
"If you are so unhappy with your pay then maybe it is time to get a new job. Sending a medical record to someone who should not have it is illegal and as such can be prosecuted. Now, it goes without saying that issues such as this are investigated, but I am sure if you are a Nuance employee you had to take the HIPAA training provided by the company, and if you paid attention you would not need to ask in what capacity you can be held responsible. I ...
To all concerned.
I was a Webber(WMX). I was proud of that fact and have done very well in the past 10 years with WMX. I'm very fast and produce quality reports at the same time an employee who works their shift.To the best of my knowledge this corporate company Nuance has been buying the world (so it seems) in medical transcription services and I know when we at WMX were bought out we were told how our production would increase leaps and bounds with escription over m*modal and and D.N.S. ...
I'm such a fool. If there is ANYTHING you want to
document from your emails, print it out NOW!
I was fired an hour ago and they have locked me out
of looking at my emails! I cant even print a copy
of the contract they made me sign. Protect yourself.

I just wonder has anyone ever tried to calculate the cost involved in recruiting, hiring and training the long line of people who come through the revolving doors of Scruance? There seems to be a never-ending stream of newbies. Meanwhile, the long-time, loyal, revenue-producing MTs are getting the shaft. And what about the cost of employees who do the recruiting, hiring, training, mentoring, QAing, QCing, auditing, TSMing, COMing and POCing in addition to other nonrevenue-producin ...
I'm just curious because I'm actively looking for anything other than this MT crap. On my main account, most of this a.m. no work. Now all of a sudden there's work plus they want me to move to another count to help out. Why didn't you need my help this morning? Sorry, but my shift ends now and I'm outta here. It seems every day there are people quitting - I can't wait to jump on that band wagon. :) ...
...be interested in or willing to participate in any litigation against Nuance for lost time or wges stolen. If this does not apply to you but you have friends or colleagues that might, please direct them to that post as well.
Thanks in advance.

First is upper management, 1 of 3 anyway because 2 of them are on vacation for a whole week, who finds a chair and then passes it down to lower management who then places it in front of the MT to stand on. The MT stands on the chair but first they must remove the still working fine bulb that is in place and throw it away. They are then given a defective bulb by the SR folks and told by management they must successfully place 10 of them per hour in order to meet the standards. After twisting a ...
doesn't matter to you, the MT will fix it. So what it takes MY time, so what it throws me off when I'm half way through the report and realize I may have it wrong and have to leave the screen, relisten to the beginning of the dictation, and change it..What do you care doc? you make a crap ton more money than I do, so obviously your time is more important.. ...
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..... ...
Is anyone else having a problem with support getting a ticket number when out of work? Four days running I have requested a ticket and its like pulling teeth to get one--didn't used to be like that. Any thoughts. ...
The doctor is dictating a white count number and he distinctly says "Thirty-eight thousand point 4." (The patient has CLL). How would you write this number? My guess is 38,000.4 ...
Something new I have noticed about several different companies is how they give you a set limit of reports when first starting out...Anyway, we are paid based on production. How is someone supposed to live on say 10 reports a day for 2 weeks? To me, I find that to be very insulting, and needing to pay my bills, it's just not something I could do. It would be similar to someone who is being paid by the hour being limited to 3 hours a day in their first 2 weeks of their new ...
I put in a PTO request a month ago for a single day this week and have yet to hear from my CCM. I've e-mailed her a total of 3 times about this, but have not yet heard anything either in e-mail or on Schedule Source. Maybe the technical staff could get hold of her, or maybe I'd get fired for using the new ticket system inappropriately? ...
Does anyone use a good 800 service for multiple dictators (5-10)? Wading through the info on the web is really confusing so I figured I would go with a referral. TIA. ...
