Pay is low and raises are only given on yearly basis of approx 30 cents. I’ve worked here for 3 years if you have any questions. That's what you get when they pay you10/hour I guess. I believe I just got the short end of the stick. I know my experience is not completely representative of the entire company. They often do not let me have lunch breaks, and I consistently have tech issues. Overall, I work full time and I feel burnt out. One day during training I worked 15 hours in one day and then she got onto me when I had overtime later that week. Additionally, my supervisor LOVES to change the schedule days before, deny days off requests, and overschedule/underschedule you. They schedule you for 9 hours but in reality, it is more like 12-hour days when you complete precharting and finish at the clinic which almost always goes over. Overall, you are expected to work 9-hour shifts, 4 for full time and 2 for part-time. Several times I was told that I had to come to physician meetings that we scheduled on days that I did not work. This is when the timing became less flexible and considerate as it is based solely on physician availability. Then once the clinical training was completed Aquity had additional training afterward that involved shadowing other scribes, doing "soft" scribing for a week, and meeting with providers. My main issue was the clinic I was matched with had its own training/policies that took an additional 4 weeks to approve and get through. For me, that means my clinic has 12 providers with 4-5 that I consistently scribe for depending on the week. This typically means they match you with a hospital/clinic and you belong to a set of providers. After you pass these exams, they match you with a provider. Post-training you take an exam, which is basically listening to audio recordings and writing notes on your own. Overall training is 4 weeks long, which is completely on your own schedule and super easy.
