Any Axolotl employees willing to share info., platform, ESL %, etc. All info greatly appreciated. sm

Along with the platform, ESL %, pay range, lpd required, split shift or 12-24 hour window available, I would be interested in knowing your personal experience with this company, what type of relationship you have with supervisors and other coworkers, etc.  Otherwise, the all the 411.

Is their platform  Inscribe by Emdat?   Autopopulated demographics?   What is average pay?  Can you make a good line count?  Good dictators?

And I take it you are happy there?

Good afternoon!

I have had employee status all my years of dictation but am venturing to IC.  For those that have done BOTH, which do you prefer?  The pros so far for me as an IC are setting my own schedule and no set times I have to work, just getting my lines in for the day.

As an IC, how are you doing as far as income after you pay your yearly taxes?  Does it even out about the same as far as the percentage you pay in taxes as compared to having them taken out for you?

I already found affordable health insurance for me and the family, so no worries there.

Thank you so much for any replies!  I'm looking forward to this new-found freedom.

How does the incentive pay work out for you?  Please E-mail me if you'd like.  We all went through enough with the evil Q.  Thanks. 

nm.

Considering them and would like to know the scoop on them. 

in Phili? Thanks

I simply don't understand why MTs post all these negative things about a company but will not divulge the name of the company or even give us a hint!  What are you afraid of?!?!!?  They are already screwing MTs over and probably you too if you're angry enough to post!  You can post anonymously, that's the beauty of this particular site.  No one need know who you are.

I, personally, keep a list of MTSOs and things I've heard about them.  God knows I've been through enough bad MTSOs, I want to save other MTs the heartache of going through the same crap I've gone through!

Besides the best way to get these MTSOs to change is to post their name on a PUBLIC forum.  Word of mouth can be a powerful thing!

Here is a list of companies I have worked for and the problems I have had, starting with the most recent:

JLG --> paid payroll practices, LATE pay checks, and discontinuation of direct deposit.

Focus Infomatics -->  they offshore the majority of their work, they lie about offshoring the majority of their work, they lie to their employees about pay, hours, and job status and breach contracts left and right.

TransHealth -->  I have nothing bad to say about them.  Pay always on time, people nice (they have since been bought by Webmedx).

Precyse Solutions -->  Nothing horrible to report.  If I recall, they didn't pay for templates, but they told you that up front.

Medquist --> horrible people in supervisory positions, very cliquish company, bad dictators on all my accounts!

Webmedx -->  The account I was on was completely and utterly horrible!  Other than that, nice people, very organized.

Accutype --> complete embecil in charge (when I worked for them) who knew nothing about transcription or the needs of MT, again very cliquey with friends giving friends the best work.

Diskriter --> ran out of work frequently

I also worked for several small MTSOs that were either bought or went out of business, and I will say it usually was the smallest MTSO that I enjoyed working for the most.  I did work as an IC for a company out of Arizona doing radiology a few years ago for a while (I can't remember the name, but I don't think they are around anymore).  Also I worked as an IC for Administrative Advantage out of Pennsylvania were pretty decent, easy accounts and easy to make money, used DropChute to deliver dictation and reports back and forth and you just typed in one big docment per dictator in Word.  Simple, straight forward, and always on time.  If you ran out of work, they would try to put you somewhere else, but never made any promises.  I like honesty and they were honest.

See how easy that was.  You try!
