You got called personally by the CEO? Hmm..... I thought you kids at Transcend were not supposed to contribute to boards like this? I guess maybe some can and some can't?
This isn't an attack and any 1 company - it is just an effort to keep the work here where we our economy stinks and the unemployment is rising ---- give us our jobs back. I know you are on the other side of the fence on this issue and on the company's side and get the personal calls and all, but think about the families out there in trouble now because of all the outsourcing - what do you say to them?

Sometimes, a little bitching as you call it is necessary to change things that have went wrong, right guys?!

Grr... a call from the CEO....!!

They use them to reduce the cost of
transcription, not just third shift work, and not just when they need help. We can have no work and you can be sure they are still sending the easy jobs to the low life trash from India just so they can make more money for the big wigs at the company. Face it, Transcend does not care a hoot about you. They can mouth the words we care, but it is just like any other politician. You are a fool if you fall for the lies.
Yes, not being paid for spaces would reduce your pay A LOT!

Voice will reduce transcription and increase editing

along with lowering pay across the board.  There is a company I left after a short period of time who bought into Dragon's sales pitch.  It was a medical management company who thought they could make a quick buck moving into MT.  They bought the sales pitch without understanding the whole picture.


They hire at $8 an hour, have great benefits and expect you to kill yourself for that $8 an hour.  IF you edit more than 16,000 lines a day for each pay period (2 weeks), then you pay bumps up to $10/hr.  But if the average for any pay period is less than 16,000 lines per day, you get stuck with your $8 and are told if you don't like it leave.  Well, I did.  The day after I left they announced they were sending the editing to India.  Ain't that a kicker?  Their reason?  To get the MTs in India to train Dragon so the American MTs can make their 16,000 lpd goals and have happier employees


Things that make you go hummm.
