Pros

None at this moment.

Cons

I've worked here for almost a year and they have totally cut our jobs in half, hired too many people and there's barely any work. This is the FOURTH WEEK in a ROW that our pay has been delayed. Some people have still not been paid for work they did two weeks ago. We got a notice today telling us there is a new problem and we won't be getting paid for our work we did last week. KEEP LOOKING!

Pros

You work remotely and have flexible hours. Some of the work is interesting. Initially administration is responsive. It's a good place to get your feet wet with transcription and captioning.

Cons

Training is non-existent. Pay is pretty bad. My pay went into my paypal account promptly. When I had issues with a batch of files, I send my supervisor a note with the details. These files were due in 24 hours. I had to follow up with her several times. It took her a week to get back to me. First, she "wasn't receiving my emails" even though she received the last followup I sent. Then she was going to take an in-depth look at my files. 5 days pass and I try to touch base with her again, no response. Then, another 15 days without a word. I reach out again and she replies immediately from her phone saying that she responded to me on the last email and I should check my spam folders LOL I'd been receiving mail from her with no issue prior to that and had just received that particular email as well as the ongoing team emails without issue. Obviously there was nothing in my spam folders because she probably never responded. So I asked her to please resend the email. Again she miraculously replied immediately saying that she would "check to see if it's still on the servers, when she gets back to the office". That was 5 days ago. These people are completely unprofessional and unresponsive. I'm a single mom of 2 teens, who works a full-time job -- I understand being busy. But if I could find the time to email my manager to get some support for a job I was doing for them, they can certainly find the time to respond to the inquiry. Amateurs. p.s. I marked "current employee" because I haven't received any communication about the support I requested or about them terminating me. I have no idea what my employment status is on their books. Ridiculous.

Pros

I could go on forever about the wonderful atmosphere here, within TranscribeMe! They are some of the most helpful, encouraging, informative, and thoughtful people (employee and admin alike) that I've had the pleasure of working with. I have had many friends, but I've also grown so much as a transcriptionist and a person. I don't have a single negative thing to say about them. They genuinely put every effort into being equally fair to both clients and those working for them. Every concern is listened to and a big part of the company has been built collaboratively. As someone who works here, I can say that the tests absolutely are NOT done by the people here as a means for potential new contractors to do our work for us. That is absurd. TM is one of the most ethical, diverse, and understanding companies for people like me, who are sick, I have had EVER had the pleasure of coming across, and I am thank ful every single day that I had found them when looking for a legitimate and fair company to work for from home so that I could still contribute to my family's household finances. I love these people and that opinion is shared by all of us within the community and company.

Cons

I don't have any cons. I have received nothing but amazing experiences while working here and when things got hard, in my personal life, it was the people of this company who showed me that I can indeed keep going, and here I am. Still kickin'!
