Brown & Meyers Anyone?
Does anyone have any comments/experience with Brown & Meyers - good or bad. I would love to hear about this company. I have been offered a position, but do not have much info on them. Thanks.
Brown & Meyers
I have been with Brown & Meyers for almost two years and it has been a great experience. I do not have to work a specific shift, have been given a raise when I asked after a year and am never bothered with phone calls, e-mail, etc. They are very personable, helpful and willing to give me any accounts I may ask for. They use the Sten-Tel platform, which probably isn't the greatest, but it is easy and works for me. I have never had a problem with paychecks- always correct and on time. I would definitely recommend looking into working for them.
brown & meyers anyone?
has anyone worked for them or know of them?
I like Brown & Meyers
They are very nice and communicative. IC position. Very happy. 
Brown & Meyers
You spelled that incorrectly but yes, I have heard the same thing. I wouldn't work for them for any amount of money.
brown & meyers
i worked four weeks for them. tech was nice, but the training sucked. uploading/downloading was a pain. they told me i would be busy busy but i sat around waiting for work. pay was 8 cents a line. if u wanted them to edit your work, they deducted it from your pay.

You must have a really brown nose then
That woman wasn't nice to anyone unless there was something in it for her.
If I was such a brown nose,
I would not have been forced to quit. Trust me, I was NOT one of their favorites! :)
Brown Nosers....exactly
You just hit the nail on the head! Why else would she be on here? Brown nosing to show her management how she does a great job in defending the company.
If she is typing for her own accounts on top of account management duties, she must be short MTs. Hmmm, maybe some of the MTs are starting to see the light.
I use to work for CyMed/SPi as well. It is a joke that all of the brown nosers seem to still stay around; and the ones that speak their mind are let go or pushed out.
Love it, brown something perhaps?

Your nose is brown.
Anyone that applied with Kathy Kirby hear anything yet? I am wondering how long it takes to hear a
response back
Happy DSG'r = Brown noser
Brown&Myers testing
Be aware everyone, Brown&Myers online testing practice. They change your correct answers to incorrect. Don't waste your time with this company.

HELP NEED TO START WORKING SOON
You sound like the brown noser that
Your head is so far up her butt you look like her!
John Brown is just playing with you.
He said, NOT OFFERING A JOB.
You've got brown stuff on your nose -
you know they monitor this board constantly! You talk to them all the time about it. Let's see how long it takes you to relay this posting.
Doesn't sound like a brown nose to me...
but rather a very grateful employee. This board is very discouraging to me. A lot of whiners who are not good medical transcriptionists and then turn it around to make the company they worked for look bad. Actually, it can be quite entertaining when I am bored.
Yes, you are someone, You are one of their token US employees. Hey, what is that brown spot
;
or if you're not related you could brown nose your way
.
Hmmm-methinks your nose is brown.
I hope you are right. I'm sure Brown at FEMA thought the same thing.
Remember the Boy Scouts' motto: "Always be prepared."
Holy Brown Stuff. Is that reliable info? (nm)
.
Brown noses = big money makers in our business.
It is being run like a cartel. Management is blind to corrupt supervisors from what I can see.
We did this to ourselves mostly, by allowing leaders to rise up who were not on the MTs side.
Not blind. Brown nosers make great workers for the

I said MAY NOT hear, didn't say you wouldn't hear. There is
a difference, and many people have said they knew they didn't do well on the tests, but still feel like they should have heard from companies and haven't.
Hear, hear! (Or is it 'here, here?') LOL
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that, I didn't think anyone used it anymore! I'm glad to hear so
I'll definitely check them out!
Hear, hear! Read My Opinion's opinion.
Regarding Wondering's question, the company I work for is investing strongly in upgrading its MTs' and editors' skill levels (exactly what this says about need for us for ten years down the road I can't say). This morning I found an e-mail saying they would pay every one of us to attend an on-line class on making Expander macros to increase our productivity. Amazingly, I have to assume many employees were choosing not to attend the unpaid ones they had been offering...
I hear you.
And it ticks me off that they refer to these people as "medical editors." If these people are medical editors, where are DC notes sent now, to GOD?
Just seems to me they're trying to reel people in by pumping up their egos, offering them jobs as "medical editors," when in fact they probably wouldn't qualify for job as a legitimate medical Editor with any other company.
Lofty titles don't mean much if your wallet is empty. 
Would like to hear from other ST L MTs...
Hi, would love to network with St Louis MTs... I'm about an hour south... would love to work directly for the hospital, tired of services!!!
suz
I hear you there.
That's also the ONLY reason I stuck with them. I have kids at home, at college and a husband who travels and makes a hell of a lot more than I do. Guess whose schedule is always getting stepped on through no fault of my own....that's right mine. And once I go live on DEP where they can track my every move I don't want to spend every day avoiding my phone. And I NEVER received any questionaire from them asking what my needs were. And I answered the phone and it was just to tell me the packet was in the mail.e
From what I hear about OSi
it is the same as always, amazingly unqualified people in charge but if you don't mind that and the fact they send jobs overseas while some MTs sit here twiddling their thumbs go for it.
Because you will never hear the same
If you can't learn their voices and genuflections, how can you build up speed?
Since when? From what I hear,
...
I hear you!
I can't seem to make any money on this platform and I've been here almost 1 year! The dictators are horrible -99% ESL.
Where did you hear about them? nm
nm
you might not want to hear this, but
Let me first say that I believe that there is a reason for people phrasing things a certain way and not getting into the specifics...... probably because it would take entirely too long to do!!! For instance, when I first read the part about does Spheris offer a computer, before I even read the response, the FIRST THING that entered my mind was Yep, and heartache too! only to open up the thread and see it there!! How funny!!
I would be glad to tell you at least a couple of reasons why I encountered heartache. And please, I know that there are some that are reading this that work for the company and if you have not had the experience I had, please do not insult me nor my intelligence by making idiotic comments that have nothing to do with my individual experience, which you most certainly would not know about unless you HAPPEN TO BE me!
Anyhow, I worked for Spheris for aprx three weeks. During that time, I was informed, only after I had accepted the job, mind you, that if my QA was not 98% in ( I believe) five days, that I would be fired. Now, mind you, I am an experienced transcriptionist, but when you have had several jobs that teach and do things differently, it is kind of hard to try to reprogram your mind in five days! By the fourth day I was stressed out and making more mistakes than I ordinarily would have. However, I did make the 98%. Well, after that, I was finding that I was ALWAYS short of work and on Mondays, I was lucky if I got one note at all. Yes, paycheck was horrible. Well, the last straw for me was when they magically decided to trim down the pay for everyone on that specific account. Not sure if it was across the whole company board or not. I finally had had enough harrassment, lies, and disappointment, and it only took me three weeks to get there!
Anyhow, I say that to say this. All of us are grown. We know what you need and what we don't, what we can handle, and what we can't. Ultimately, we have to make the decision and live with it. I wish all who happen to work there all the best, and hopefully things are different now.
Be Blessed!!!
I hear you...and ...
it is not just in our field it's our clothes, our cars, our applicances, just about everything. Look at the tag on a garmet or picture frame, or stuffed animal you have. What does it say?....this is horrific for the future of this country!!
