Does anyone have any info on Softscript?  What kind of company are they to work for, pay, etc.  Thanks

hi, all.  i searched the boards for recent info on softscript; latest is from august--not very postive.  they say they're interested in an RN w/ MT experience & sent the link to their test.  just want to know if anyone working for them now (or who has worked w/ them recently) has any input.

thank you!    

anyone have any recent info on SoftScript such as how much they pay and if they are okay.  please do not tell me to look at archives; I have already done that.  I want RECENT info please.  thanks

Unless you have worked for all of the nationals out there, how could you possibly know that SoftScript is the worst?  Perhaps in your experience it was the worst.  How many nationals have you worked for? 

Anytime a company changes the way they count lines, complaints end up on this board regarding that company.  As far as stealing lines....I would imagine they changed the way they count their lines and this is not okay with you.  By all means, you have a right to feel that way.

I have worked for SoftScript and as with every company, there are problems but I have also had a lot of positives come from working with SoftScript.  I have been doing transcription for 25 years and in my own personal experience, they are no where near "the worst" to work for.

I think they start QA out at 5 cpl now, but it could be 4 cpl.  They do pay for spaces.  They do not pay for headers.  There is always plenty of work (I have never ran out in nearly a year).  Unfortunately, I do not know anything about their benefits. I know they are currently looking at some better plans.  There is no dental plan as of right now. I know they have medical but unsure of rates.  They have paid holidays.  They do require you to work a schedule which must include 4 hours on on the weekend but also with a schedule you must do X number of lines per day, usually not too hard to reach either.  I like their software as it uses Word.  You can check your line count in Word by dividing characters with spaces to get your line count for each document.  There does seem to be several accounts with heavy ESL, but only 1 or 2 that I have found that I would like to shoot if I had the opportunity.

Hope this helps!

I agree with FelloMT.  It is very rare that I run out of work.  I have NEVER had a late paycheck.  Sometimes there is a lack of communication, but for the most part, I have enjoyed working for them.  I also agree that their platform is very easy to use.  They also try to be accommodating with the accounts that they assign you.

I never quite understood all the negativity about them.  I have been with them for a year and really don't have any complaints.

Eeeewwww!
