private:speakwrite-2 https://www.indeed.com/cmp/speakwrite/reviews Dec 13th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open SpeakWrite Transcriptionist Remote USA Nobody actually runs this company First of all, the pay is disgraceful. If there is work, you will make between 0.005 and 0.006 cents per word. There are a number of inconsistent "rules" as well as client instructions that you have to follow. And you will get graded by proofreaders that are at best inconsistent. If it's busy, you will not get feedback. If you want to talk to anybody at the company about anything at all, too bad. The best you will get is a rude girl on the phone who has no idea how to help you. You cannot choose the jobs you take. They are randomly assigned, and if you are struggling, too bad. You cannot return the job. You have to ask for permission to return a job, and you will not get permission. Best hope one of the proofreaders is in a good mood! If you have a question, you better just guess. There is nobody around to communicate with in any way. None. Low pay, no communication with management, inconsistent guidelines, confusing instructions, no culture whatsoever 0.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Jan 31st, 2021 09:36AM Mar 20th, 2021 01:04PM SpeakWrite

Okay to make changes to schedule, with minimal restrictions. Plenty of work if you pre-scheduled full-time hours regularly. No paid time off or benefits. Independent contract work.

private:speakwrite-2 https://www.indeed.com/cmp/speakwrite/reviews Aug 8th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open SpeakWrite Transcriptionist Remote USA Excellent Side Hustle This is a fun job. Every day is a different set of stories, which keeps things interesting and fresh. It's tough work but if you do it well you can make a decent amount of money. You can make a full time job out of it if you work hard. The pay is a little higher than average when it comes to remote transcription work. It all depends on your speed and accuracy and, unfortunately, also the quality of the recording, which we can't control. Ive been working with SpeakWrite for 8 years now and there is only a little contact with management as it is a fully virtual job. However, when I had to pause working there due to some major family emergencies, the management reached out on occasion and checked on my family, which is more than my traditional full time job did!! They also helped make schedule accommodations for me and were very patient with me until I was back on my feet. That goes a long way with me. I will forever appreciate the kindness I have received from the SpeakWrite team!

While I do enjoy the flexibility, the compensation is extremely poor. The pay is usually .005 per word or 1 cent for every two words.

private:speakwrite-2 https://www.indeed.com/cmp/speakwrite/reviews May 16th, 2019 12:00AM Open Open SpeakWrite Contractor Internet They count on turnover. SpeakWrite is supposedly set up on an automated program. The problem is that programs can be manipulated. Jobs disappear. The word count is usually off. Policies and guidelines constantly change with no notice. Guidelines cover both sides (for SpeakWrite and against the contractor). Any complaints are met with suspiciously plummeting ratings. Contact with management is hostile and nasty. A wicked company. Work from home. Low pay, being cheated out of pay, vengeful staff, hostile company. 30.0 1.0 1.0 3.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Jan 31st, 2021 09:36AM Mar 20th, 2021 01:33PM SpeakWrite
