Pros

Friendly support team Friendly peers Pays timely Payscale gets better at higher levels like QA and special teams Great communication platform to vent out anything you want and meet other transcribers

Cons

Some of the machine generated work offers low pay and lots of editing. Less work on weekends

TranscribeMe Response

Thank you for your feedback. Some people feel it's easier to work with the ASR files while some don't. You can always cancel out of a file if you don't feel comfortable working on it for any reason, so you don't have to feel obligated to work on this file type if you don't want to. And you're right, weekends are usually slow in the general pool, but taking accent exams and moving into the First Draft and Special Styles teams gives you access to more workflows and a steadier stream of work. I would suggest you look into that if you haven't already done so.

It is good for a part-time side income but requires consistency.

Pros

Time and Place comfort is absolutely yours.

Cons

They let you take the money only when you reach 20 USD

TranscribeMe Response

Hi, and thanks for your opinion. The US$20 limit for withdrawal is there because TM pays PayPal any associated fees so that all the transcriptionists that work with us receive the complete amount they've earned. And you're right, the Stamper exam is one of the hardest ones on TM, precisely because that's the kind of file that you'll be working on. People have to prove they can correctly identify and timestamp speakers before they can be given that kind of file to work on so that we can ensure the quality and accuracy of the file promised to our clients. However, if you don't want to do that particular exam, you can take the QS or QA exam and once you pass you can also access stamper files. I hope this helps, and please don't hesitate to contact us if you have further comments or questions.
