Pros
I'm sorry to see the last review. Over time, here, I've noticed a theme of TranscribeMe's small, actual staff being generally quite satisfied. TranscribeMe is, indeed, very easy to join as an independent contractor. I also love the flexibility and almost-indefinable luxury of being able to work from home. I have also advanced through TranscribeMe's contractor ranks—both generally known and hidden—rapidly.
Cons
Ironically, there's a chasm there, regarding what is luxury and what is self-abusive, depending upon where in the world you live. I'm in the US, type 75 words per minute, and am multi-degreed. My highest earnings ever were $5 per hour. My mean earnings are $2.60 per hour. My mode earnings are $2.00 per hour. And, no, it's not because I don't know what I'm doing.
