Great pay rate on a 55 ccl, great lady to work for and work is not tough. sm
It is all IC work, although you still are expected to give a schedule if you are doing stat coverage. Only major drawback is the big wait for your first check -- almost a month from the time of your first invoice.
Good luck! 
Great post and very true! I read these today and was amazed that someone's first thought was pay
I agree that circumstances can make loans necessary but the OP sounded more like she uses these on a regular basis. No I'll have to learn to budget for the difference, just oh no, now I need to go to Payday Loans and pay 400% interest.
We have the potential to earn what we need to, although sometimes lately it is harder and harder.
Good for all of you. Wish I had seen these earlier.
p.s. Can someone call and tell my BIL to grow up too?
You are pathetic! I have a great life, loving family, work for a great company.
You might want to fix that.
You really don't have to shout (angry person), but yes you are wrong!!
That is my last word to you!
I will add that getting a great pay check every other Friday from Medware really puts a huge smile on my face.
YOG - Lots of work, great office staff, great money. NM

It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm
Web site is www.mditrans.net. If you need anymore info, feel free to ask.
Ever thought of a home health care aide? Usually paid training and start work right away. Can work

I just took the test today - thought it was a great test of MT skills.

Great people to work for, but I had to leave due to lack of work. Hopefully that has changed. SM
Most of us who do not live in California had to go IC. When I was there, they did not have statutory status, although they told me they did when they hired me. Their pay for VR is VERY low, not a living wage. Many of the folks in the office are ex-YOG and great to work for/with. Good luck.
1200 lines daily is great if you have the work, personally, I never had enough work so
I left and have NEVER been sorry!
I don't work there, but I thought
your summary sounded quite realistic.
I don't work for his company, but if he really wants to buy up companies, he could save a lot of time by just buying one - MedQuist. Then he could leave the good companies alone, LOL.
Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

I get it now. I thought you were subbing out all your work, and thus just getting like 2 to 3 cpl
profit to run your company! I get it now!! I wasn't looking at it from the perspective of you transcribing it, too, which makes a lot more sense! Thanks for explaining!
I thought you didn't work for MQ????????
MQ is not for the transcriptionist.
MQ is for the company.
I wouldn't get any work done, but the thought of sm
of a food pedal is great..... Hmm, could make a ton of money.....Where's that patent list???? LOL!!! Nice to have fun on this board once in a while.
I thought it was just the ones who work in SHINE sm
that felt we might be losing in this merger. Thanks for letting me know I am not alone!
I did that - and was denied a bonus! There was no work, I thought will
later, typed, typed earlier than my schedule the next day, next day also during my schedule no work, - heck I wasn't going to sit there in front of a computer dialing every 2 minutes for 5 hours.
Then I get a call that I didn't work my shift. I said there was no work. In fact there was no work all week, was lucky to get the lines I did. Bonus denied.
I will never help them out in a pinch again (they called me to do the bonus!) and I will never sign on when they are drowning to do "bonus". People who call me to work extra, and then don't pay me for it, don't get much of my work after that. There are people who pay me for the time I sit and transcribe. I will spend my time at their work, not at a liar's.
Why MQ doesn't get it about "If you have no work - don't expect me to sit there" - is beyond me.
People can't sit up 24 hours a day chasing work to transcribe. It should be on MQ's back to direct work flow so that when they know people are going to be signing on for their DEDICATED and ASSIGNED shift, there is work for them to do. Don't let hogs get in there who are not supposed to be working and type all the time, and then there is no work for people who are signing on for their schedules.
And there should be a legit hourly wage set in stone not by some formula, that pays an MT to "sit there and wait."
I thought Transcend did not offshore work.

I thought it made a difference to work
but unless you are working for the hospital it doesn't matter, you still get what they want you to have. I asked my last supervisor if they get psych work and was told they did but she saved them for another MT who liked them. The work I would get would be one-minute mush mouths. It sometimes took 20 minutes to complete one. That's the way it stayed until I finally left. I think that's an MT service thing because when I worked for the hospital, I typed whatever was next in line, no cherry-picking and no favoritism.
Sorry to hear that is happening to you. Hopefully, things get better either through communicating the problem or by getting a better job situation.
I usually work both jobs until I determine that the new job is really all I thought it would be. nm
But I thought all Transcend employees had to work
That doesn't make sense. I could see that a lot of domestic MTs don't want to work 3rd shift and they need the coverage, but if all employees have to work at least 1 weekend day, there isn't much dictation over here on 3rd shift except for the occasional stats. It would seem they wouldn't have enough work to keep the overseas MTs going. I can't see an overseas service staying in business when they're only getting a few stats on each account for a couple hours on the weekend.
Great place to work. LOTs of work and (sm)
as the other poster noted, somewhat flexible. Make your lines and they pretty much leave you be. Communication is great, QA is great. The platform is extremely easy. There's plenty of work to go around and then some.
Actually, I thought her post was professional. Do you work at MDI? I doubt it.
she can most likely weed out the MTs just by their posts anyway if she's dealt with them at all. She did the right thing to simply state MDI MTs can come to her IF they have concerns. It's great to share info, but not ALL posts are by sister MTs sharing the good word. There are many, many who love to incite drama and there are always 2 sides to every story! Anyone can come on here and claim they are great MTs and do all that is expected of them yet are treated terribly by a company, but that sure doesn't make it the truth. About how many MTs do you think are at MDI? And how many individual MTs are here complaining? Not the same posters using different names but single persons. Do the math and figure out from that how many are unhappy at MDI, and my bet is your percentage will be low. I know of a lot of MTs very happy at MDI with enough work. But then I'm sure the naysayers will just claim those are the favorites or something.
LOL. I read too fast and thought you were contacting her about porn work. nm

not anonymous - I do work for Keystrokes, I thought I made that clear
I do work for them, it is hard not to trust anymore but yes, I do work for Keystrokes, I thought I made that clear. The other poster seemed cynical. I understand that. I love working for Keystrokes. it is an honest company. After all the other companies I have been with it is refreshing!
Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

10 cpl? That's great. And I'd rather have too much work...sm
than to run out of work. I'd gladly work weekends to make 10 CPL.
It's great you are doing so well. Are you doing all work
nm
I work there now and they are great. sm
Pay is always accurate, on time thru direct deposit. Emdat is a little strange to get used to, but not that bad. I think they'd like 300 lines a day minimum, but you need to check on that. Its 150 LPH required though. Hours are flexible as long as you tell them what you want and stick to it. They are wonderful ladies and I'd never leave if I didn't have to due to tax issues in my state. Give them a try.
And they are GREAT to work for! nm

No, she is GREAT to work for...sm
GREAT dictators, but just not enough work, unfortunately.
I actually thought of that. I even thought of trying to go back to MQ part-time!! (sm)
I just wonder about hours at a second company. I work days (and some nights) with this company. I have a set schedule but with the no work situtation I've been on the computer at all hours of the day and night. Right now I have no work, so I would love to jump on at a company #2 and start working. Do you have to have set hours at your company #2? Thanks for the suggestion.
Great place to work!
I came to Phoenix after having worked at the 2 large nationals over the past 4 years. I'm SO glad! The do not pay for spaces but the headers/footers more than make up for that. The work is steady, same account (or accounts) and never runs out. The staff are great to work with, helpful and very thoughtful. Great place to work!
Great company to work for...
Spheris is a terrific company to work for. They NEVER run out of work. They are extremely helpful. You use their computer set up. Direct deposit. Shifts you want. Need I say more? Oh, yes, the people there are terrific.
Ex-Spheris employee - hope to go back some day.
GREAT company to work for.
Hi, I have been an employee with them for almost one year. I have NEVER had a late pay day, it is always on time. The work is plentiful. In fact, for several months they have been BEGGING for extra help to stay in the TAT. They do have some difficult accounts, many that are ESL dictators, but once you get them - you get them - and they become like second nature to you. They have employee status if you make a certain amount of lines every two weeks or you can be IC. They are very thoughtful and nice people. I don't believe they offshore, not 100% sure though. I am happy to have found my home after two other internet company let-downs. Hope this help. But, really, you cannot go wrong with FutureNet. And, their platform is the best! Easy to work without putting in a lot of time for the demographics, etc.
Great place to work
Wonderful people, great software, sound quality excellent, benefits affordable, don't really noticed the ESLs, maybe because I'm used to them, or maybe depends on the account. Pay average.
Great company to work for!
I have worked for them for over six years and they are a wonderful organization to work for - very friendly, excellent benefits and pay, and flexible schedules. You are paid every two weeks on time, like clockwork. I would highly recommend them!
They are a great group to work with and
if you are a good MT, very accommodating. Good Luck!
anyone else think this is a great company to work for?
From what i can see on the previous discussions, this is a great company to work for sounds like. Does anyone working for them right now think so?
Both are great companies to work for.

Great company to work for. nm

Great if you want to work for free!
great company to work for
They do not provide equipment but Dell has excellent deals going on plus financing. You can get a pedal for around $50. Line rates vary dependent upon shift plus bonus quarterly.
The people are great to work with
and the pay is good and on time. I do find the work isn't as steady as I'd like though, but hey, that's the MT business, right?
Great if you like to work weekends
with no chance of getting time off - seems once you are in a schedule that is where they keep you.
They are a great company to work for. sm
Pay is good and ALWAYS on time. Have been with them for 1-1/2-years and NEVER has it been late or wrong. They have heavy ESL load but for the most part they are good dictators with the exception of a few, just like anywhere else though. Their QA is okay - one or two are not that nice but for the most part QA is good. Workflow people are great! Supervisors are great! Had, months back, problems with work running out but not it is fine and has been. Overall rating: GREAT company!
Great company to work for
I've been there close to a year. Some of my acct's have a lot of ESL (but they are not bad) and some don't. Support is good. ExText is a good platform. It took me awhile to get my lines, but after a few months, I got in the groove. Works with Shorthand. Don't know their pay range. I've heard different things. They recently changed their incentive schedule, and it is a lot easier to attain. New accounts coming on board soon.
Great company to work for....
Anyone looking for a good company....apply at Diskriter they are a great company to work for.
Great place to work
This is Documed in New Jersey that I am talking about. I have said this before on MT Stars, but I absolutely love this company. Been with them for almost 2 years and I can't say enough good things about them. The management is fantastic. The office staff is wonderful. They are very helpful with any problems you may have. Pay has never been late. Hope this helps. 
They are a great place to work..sm
I have been there nearly 4 years now. The staff is very professional and accommodating. My schedule is flexible though there is a 24-hour TAT, but you can work the hours you want for the most part, at least on my account. Pay is always on time, the platform easy,and I rarely hear from QA. So all things considered, I would certainly encourage you to give them a try!
They are a great company to work for....sm
I have been with them for about 9 months. They ALWAYS pay early or right on the day. They always answer your e-mails, IMs, etc. QA is very good. They do not dock for errors, blanks, questions sent to QA, etc. Work was slow around the holidays but other than that there is plenty of work. I would recommend them. Their platform is very easy (best I've ever used). Good luck!!
Great place to work
I have been there for about 4 months. I love it there. Everybody there is great. I have an awesome account as well as a backup account. I plan on staying there for a long time. I don't know if they are currently hiring or not. Good luck!
