Pros

You work from your home office, and you receive your meagre wages on time. That's it.

Cons

The compensation is now so paltry that I am amazed anyone works for them at all! Long hours, very low pay. You would be better off working for Walmart or Tim Horton's...at least in those places, when your shift is over, it's over...you don't have to keep pushing yourself and work extremely long hours to reach their minimum production standard (which is constantly being raised by this company, regardless of the fact that you signed a contract with them). To make a decent wage (i.e. equivalent to hospital salaries), you would have to work 14 hour days, 7 days a week, or more...and that includes experienced transcriptionists. The compensation per dictated minute has actually decreased since 2003!!

Pros

The company offers excellent training and a thorough onboarding process, helping new hires feel well-prepared and confident. The small, close-knit teams foster a collaborative and supportive work environment where you never feel lost in the crowd. Employees take pride in the innovative technology and software being developed, which is recognized as impactful within the industry. (Note: The company was acquired by Microsoft to bring potential for future growth.)

Cons

While the company excels in many areas, there’s limited upward mobility, especially in certain career paths, which can be frustrating for those seeking advancement. Additionally, feedback from employees often feels like it’s not taken seriously, which can lead to disengagement when trying to influence change or improve processes.
