Think maybe mgmt is getting the message? - Reinstate old bonus plan


Posted: Dec 19, 2012

Whether the current huge backlog is due to call-offs, folks not wanting to put in overtime, or people just outright quitting NTS, I say hip-hip hooray.

I hope this gets management's attention that their approach to *handling* their employees by constantly cutting pay is not working for them.

My sincere condolences to the new Transcend people, and the new Accentus workers  coming  on board.

As an ex-Webx, we heard this song and dance 2 (?) years ago. We all took big base pay hits, salved over with the exclamation how their new great technology would be able to increase our production by leaps and bounds.  NOT SO.

I've been bombarded with Emails asking for overtime....what makes them think I want to help them out in a time of crisis? Cut my pay again? Go find you some clever 4-centers to clean up your mess.

 

Unfortunately, they'll probably just send more work to India then. nm - Transcend

I don't - work

at nuance. I work at MM. At least the people here are doing what they need to do to fight. If only the MM people could be convinced to do the same. They can't send all the work to India, many hospitals don't want it sent there. People in this industry need to get together and stop working now. Even if just for a few days. It will hurt them.

what precisely are they doing? - ukn

This whole "stop work for a day" junk is ridiculous. No one is going to put their livelihood on the line to supposedly "get what we want" because we WONT get what we want. Do you think that by taking a day or two off work that they will suddenly give us raises? Seriously... When you have a real plan of action, then come tell everybody.
You - apparently
[ In Reply To ..]
don't get it. Stop working is exactly what you have to do. It seems like it is taking it's toll already. The company is apparently running late on a lot of work, but I guess they have people like you to do it all. Not if more would stop working.
did you get a raise cause the work is not done? - unk
[ In Reply To ..]
If the backlog gets high, they will offer an extra penny to catch it up, and hundreds will pounce on that and the backlog will clear up fast. Then, there will be no work for the holidays and you all will have no work. Is that getting you a raise? Is that getting clearer dictation? Is that giving you better dictators?

The - sad

truth is that the people that are hopping on are ruining it for everybody.

I refuse to put in any effort since I lost my bonus - sm

I won't work overtime. I don't check Fiesa. I do my best for the speakers and the patients--that's 100%--but helping out the company or putting in one second of my own time? They're on their own.

I refuse to put in any effort since I lost my bonus - sm - buffy

[ In Reply To ..]
I am not doing any more than I have to. The other night Fiesa says I should have looked for the doctor in prior dictations. I did not reply. I am not looking anything up anymore. If I dont know how to spell it or say it it gets a blank! They can look. I will never see a bonus anyhow.

I don't think they get the message - but I quit

[ In Reply To ..]
I was also ex-Webx and quit about a month ago. I just couldn't take Nuance anymore. Great that they have a huge backlog now. There was no work when I was there and that is part of the reason I left. I hope their reports go out of TAT. They deserve to lose all of their clients with the way they treat their MTs.

They - will

[ In Reply To ..]
get the message if it's done right.

It would - be

[ In Reply To ..]
great if everybody would walk off, then everybody contact the media in your area and tell them about the big walk out and why. That stuff makes news and that's what needs to happen. They need to be exposed!!!

MTSOs.  I posted regarding the KLAS MTSO study June 2008, but I wonder just how many MTs actually read it and absorbed the information that was made available to them within the free study. There's all the commotion about  ...
