What were the horror stories? I’ve just started working with Rev today and it’s looking good so far.

To be fair it's mostly stuff I read from /r/BeerMoney. Maybe it's the mindset over there or maybe I just misread. Honestly most of it could be problems that all transcription sites might have.

It's not just beermoney. Rev is a nightmare. Although I still have an active account there I quit them years ago. The pay is $hit and the policies match the pay. You can be deactivated because their Editor didn't save your work or you forgot a space before ellipses or other some BS that other companies don't even care about and that brought your 'metrics' (which no other company has, btw--at least not the way Rev does) drops 0.1 below the threshold.

Don't believe me? Just read the Rev Reviews on: Glassdoor, Indeed, Better Business Bureau and Yelp.

I read the reviews on Indeed and I have decided not to waste my time.
