Any new information on Axolotl? Seems as though people were sm

singing their praises awhile back.  I was just wondering -- is everyone still happy?  Are the line rates good? Plenty of work?  Good benefits?   It is hard to find a company nowadays that are willing to pay a decent line rate.  They may want tons of experience (I have 30+ years), but then offer a line rate that I would hesitate to take even as a newbie.  Quality work deserves quality pay. :-)

about companies. I hope it's not you being sued. I don't know if you ever worked for TT or not but  I've seen some of the outrageous things stated against TT and I just don't know if I would believe some of those posts. I think they may be disgruntled employees taking out their hatred on a company that, until a few months ago, had great reviews. Then someone posted a nasty comment about them and it's been going downhill since then.

This board is for comments on companies, but not some of the nastiness I've seen against TT lately so, again, I say, it all started with one disgruntled employee and snowballed from there. If they are suing someone, they must have a good reason, don't you think?

Anyone with information on this company? 

need to keep from naming names.  I thought it was an informative bit of information, but when you name names, then posts are way out of line. 

I would really like to see a truly professional way of talking about a company.  I don't care what board you go to, somehow people just do not want to play nice when it comes to talking about people.  If those people could learn to be a little more professional and stop posting names to their wrath or anger, then that will be the day I can say I am proud to be in this profession.  When I see those types of things, it makes my skin crawl.  If it were me being talked about, I would be livid.  I certainly understand why the posts were deleted. 

Anyone ever hear of this company?  I am considering and any information appreciated

Thanks

Any Axolotl employees out there??  Are you happy? 

I am considering accepting an offer from them.  It seems they have a lot to offer.   I am currently with Medware and very, very unhappy with them lately. 

Any advice appreciated.

The company is fully aware of what it means.  If you go to the website, you will see. 

When I hired on, they actually sent me a salamander on a keyring!!  Their name is different because they, as a company, are different than any other!! 

I have transcribed now for 14 years and trust me, I have never had a better employer. 

Their benefits are awesome, their pay is more than competitive and I cannot think of one thing negative about them. 

MT25, I've also heard good things about this company.  Could you tell me what Lotus Notes are?  I am thinking about applying with them.  How would you rate the majority of accounts?  Hard to make lines with difficult dictators?  Do you transcribe for several docs or just a select few?  Thanks!

Axolotl expects quality and reliable MTs.  Due to the fact, they do not overstaff, it is IMPERATIVE, everyone be there for their scheduled shifts.  They provide OUTSTANDING and affordable benefits, as well as more than competitive pay. 

If you meet the above standards as an MT, then you should apply.  If you don't meet these standards, then you need to find a company who doesn't expect you to produce quality documents and to show up for your shift. 

I have been an MT for 13 years.  Axolotl is better than any company I have ever researched or any employer I have worked for.

If you are looking for former employees who did not meet the above standards, I am sure you can find them.

Does anyone know if Axolotl is hiring?  Everything I'm hearing about them sound really good.  My only concern is that someone posted they only have about 75 employees (kinda small), and if they hire more MTs, the workflow may be low...hmmm.

I wanted to thank you for all the information.  I am seriously considering applying.  So far, this one appeals the most to me.  I am still trying to decide if I want to make the move; this is something I take very seriously.  It has just been so difficult to make the money at MQ with all the changes; it almost seems intentional on their part to make it more difficult for the MTs so that they don't have to pay out these quarterly bonuses.  I could see having 3 or 4 accounts....that would be ideal, but 13 unfamiliar accounts with specifics to learn for each.....this, I find to be outrageous!!!  With all of this going on, they are driving their MTs (even the veteran MTs) right out the door!  BIG MISTAKE.
