...have to keep the settings in control panel as is for my job. The text is awfully small. Would there be any other way to enlarge it, or do I have to make-do?
I love the site and the changes, too, just find it rather small. Unfortunately, on my end, I can not change any other settings, and the +/- does not work for me, either.

As in largest - largest number of MT's -- what is the order of the
Is the Q still the largest ? Is Spheris next ?
Does anyone have a feel on this subject of late?
Transcend has Escription and EX text. Medware has ex-text.
Deventure I know has Escription but I am not sure if they hire PT or not.
Who are the largest? Top Ten? nm
nm
Q is largest with Spheris second.
Q has over 7000 MTs/MEs/QA. Spheris has around 3800 to 4000.
Largest Nationals?
What would you say the top 5 largest national companies are? Thanks!!
Yes - it's the 2nd largest national, begins with S. :) NM

I seriously doubt they are the 3rd largest. Maybe on another planet?
We know pretty much who the largest companies are. I think the best benefits I have seen have been with TransHealth. They are reasonable and they have really good healthcare insurance as well as dental and vision. Most companies just do not care about the benefits for their people.
3rd largest DOMESTIC employer
Besides MedQ and Spheris, who else has 750 domestic MTs? And to answer your question before you ask; yes, CyMed really does have that many. I work in the corporate office and they've been stuffing envelopes for employee Christmas cards and gifts all week. (Finally getting them out the door on Monday.)
I know that MQ and Spheris are the two largest companies. Who are the next ones in the top 10? nm
zzzzzzzzzz
The largest number of complaints (sm)
about companies that I see on this board are for two reasons: 1) Companies that routinely overhire and make everyone fight for adequate work but still insist on line/hour quotas being met; and 2) Companies that don't communicate well -- recruiters that are more focused on selling their particular service than listening to make certain there will be a good fit between service and MTs and supervisors who are quick to send emails to criticize an MT but are frustratingly unavailable when the work volume is low or when MTs have problems that need addressed.
SPi acquires Cymed - becomes 3rd largest Co.
The talk doing the rounds is almost official. At least one senior executive had confirmed the deal. Further details awaited.
I read that Transcend was the third largest
How could Keystrokes be that big? From what I heard Keystrokes is still midsize. I would say there are plenty larger than them. Also Transcend has several divisions, which I do not believe is similar to Keystrokes at all.
Sorry, but not according to one of the largest financial insitutions in this country.
They totally disagree with what you say. I have talked to them in depth
silly wabbit, take a look at the CEOs of the largest
The MT industry IS male- dominated. The ICs and small mom-and-pop MTSOs may still be predominately women, but when the higher echelon of the larger companies are in fact males...well, you just don't come off sounding like you have it all together. Additionally, most of those male-dominated large MTSOs have sunk huge amounts of money in offshore facilities/employees. Our government has made it lucrative NOT to do business in the US.
About this work stoppage thing and organization efforts you advocate, you must not be well read in MT circles on the 'net. There have been some serious people making serious efforts to organize the MT industry and time and time, these efforts fail. The biggest reason for this failure are anonymous message boards like these (no offense to the board owner/administrators) because people don't want to put their name behind what they say, don't want stand up for what they say. There are too many people who simply want to keep their jobs. I DO believe that if the US MTs collectively stopped working for a week, services WILL find alternatives and there will be loss of jobs. Remember the air traffic controllers? Best example I can offer.
I could go on but I got weary from reading your post as I have seen it time and time again, and unless you personally are willing to stand up and organize it, why are you stirring the pot?
Milton's Red Stapler
Wow, Will that then make Spheris the largest company?

My husband works for one of the largest corporations in the U.S. (not MT). sm
They are paid on the 1st and 15th and his will not post until Monday. They were told that it depends on the clearing house in their region, that their bank sends it any day, even if a Sunday, but if that middleman, so to speak, is closed, it will not go until the next day. Same with holidays.

What are top 5 companies size-wise? MQ still largest? nm
,,
Sorry, but I used to work at one of the largest financial institutions in this country.
Thank you very much. Unless you have proof in your hand that the deposit was supposed to go in on a certain date, DO NOT go writing checks and spending money without that proof because stuff happens.
You mentioned smaller companies, but MQ is the largest, so do you think thousands will be let go?

Diskriter - Working for the largest hospital system in FL.
The benefits look fabulous! Strict schedule? Good PTO?
Thx!
I think the 2 largest companies that do not offshore are Webmedx and Keystrokes. sm
Webmedx is in the $25m range with 750 employees and Keystrokes in the $20m range with 600 employees.
I am not sure about SoftScript or Transtech but I do not think they are bigger than those two.
I know that both have goals to be in the same size range as Spheris. I worked for Spheris in management for a while before coming to my senses and both companies were discussed frequently.
I just hope that MQ or Accusis does not buy either of them. The rumor is that neither will even think of selling but $$$ talks and MQ still seems to have plenty even after losing the lawsuits AND after having a negative income for several years. Not sure how or why, but their pockets are deep, as are those at Accusis.
Thoughts?
Allscripts - Just found out that one of the divisions for one of my largest accounts has started
to use Allscripts instead of dictating with my service. I believe it's just a matter of time before the rest of the divisions follow suit....this can't be good!
So administrator..is OSi done for here now??
xx
I wonder why the Administrator
as she so frequently does? Question for the Administrator...Is it true that any negative posts of companies who advertise on this board are deleted??? If so, why is this? If this is not true, why was the string about Transcription Matchmaker deleted?
ADMINISTRATOR
Is there any way that you can make a requirement that MTSO's who post on the job board list the name of their company.
I have responded to some of the anonymous posts by sending my resume and never ever hear a word back. It makes me uneasy because my address and phone number is on my resume.
After giving this some thought, why would a legitimate company post anonymously. On all other sites, companies who post jobs must list the company name.
Please consider making this a requirement.
Thanks.
To the ADMINISTRATOR
I have received unsolicited email from this site and do not like it at all.
As the posts get older, will they eventually drop our 'email me' link?
Way to go, administrator!!
Thank you for speaking for all of us!
Administrator
What does a little hand pointing in front of a post mean? I am searching for a post of mine that looks as if it has been deleted. While searching I came across a reply of mine to a post, and there is this hand in front of it, and you cannot open my reply. I feel as if I am being boycotted or something - - LOL! Seriously, what is going on?
Administrator
It's great you removed the post, but I didn't get to see it. Wondering if it wouldn't be fair to name the company so those of us who didn't see it will know what type of company we are dealing with if/when they repost an ad?
You could leave the ad and the company up as an example of how to get your ad deleted... what *not* to post.
Administrator-just curious
what was offensive about my post that caused it to be deleted? Not a regular poster but wondering what is considered offensive? No name calling, no swearing, yet....the rude and aggressive posts are allowed to remain. Makes no sense to me.
I will pass that along to the Administrator. Thank you. (NM)

ADMINISTRATOR and others regarding TPJS
I just thought I would let you and others know about a job that is posted on the job board. It was a ACUTE CARE MTS/EDITOR position that offer hourly wages. To me this sounds like a BIG SCAM. They send you an email stating that they are delighted to offer you a transcription position within a certain hourly range but then as you read further it states Please remit $25.00 for your independent contractor background check. We
accept credit cards, debit cards, money orders, money grams and cashier
checks as a form of payment.
Please note: We do not accept personal check. They go by the company name of Telecommuting Personnel Job Services or TPJS, Inc.
The ad never had the companies name in it as well.
I would think that if a company wants to hire you and do a background check that they would pay for it!
Do you think this sounds like a SCAM??
Administrator - Another job ad w/o company name
.
E-mail the administrator.
company name identified.
Send you comments to the Administrator. (SM)
Be care of the tone and remarks on this board.
ADMINISTRATOR, MODERATOR, please explain (sm)
Why does clicking on the OSi link say no offshoring activities reported after they have been banned from advertising on MTStars for proven offshoring?
Only if administrator of board can be given proof.

I am sure the Administrator is looking into this. Don't make assumptions. nm

Yes, administrator/moderator has posted that

I have reported this message to the Administrator
This has got to be the most unprofessional situation I have ever witnessed. I cannot believe it.
This question was addressed with Administrator. (SM)
Job listings are written by the companies posting the listing. We do not define how they make their own listings.
If you feel uncomfortable sending a resume to an unidentified company, then you should not. Perhaps an e-mail to them asking for identification first.

I thought that was the Administrator and BuckeyeLil! nm
Please email the Administrator regarding CorTMedical

To ADMINISTRATOR: Is this a legit company?
I hope that this isn't someone's idea of a joke as I have already sent my resume. I find absolutely nothing on the internet regarding a company with this name. The ads indicate that they have several accounts already...why can't I find anything on this company?
I say have the administrator check the IP addresses
That's the only way to know for sure!! Can you do that, administrator??

Job listing for Docshuttle Experienced MT - Part Time has no company name. Any info?
