I am considering accepting a position with them and want to see who is happy there and who isn't and why.  I have a few questions.  I just want to make sure that I make the right decision because I want to stay put for good somewhere.

Do they make you work your full 8 if you get your minimum line requirements for the day?  I am a high producer and will be doing 1600 lines a day minimum and do not want to work more than 6-7 hours.  Most places are happy as long as you do good production.

Pay decent?

QA respectable?  How strict is QA and do they do reviews to check your QA score?  I have never worked that way.  I don't want that kind of pressure on me.  I just do my work and get a few reports sent back that had blanks for me to review and learned that way and eventually would have maybe 3-5 blanks a day once used to an account. 

Thank you.......

Do they adhere to a strictly Tu-Sa or Su-Th schedule?  If your speciality is ER, do they have accounts that are only ER?  Do they have Radiology accounts?

TIA

I am looking for a little info.  I'm considering applying to the above companies.  I have 2 questions, and I am hoping you guys can help me. 

I need to provide health insurance for my entire family, which with some companies can be very costly.  Does anyone know approximately the cost of a family plan?  I could, of course, ask this question to a recruiter, but my experience in the past has been it is hard to get someone to answer questions until you have tested.  I don't want to waste a whole Sunday afternoon to be told family health insurance will cost me $900 a month.

Question #2 regards quality standards at these 2 companies.  Specifically, I am wanting to know if anyone who has worked under the stringent quality standards of Amphion (they aren't happy unless you are absolutely perfect, and I'm not Jesus) has also worked at either of these companies and can give me a comparison of their experience. 

My experience the past 15 months at Amphion has been very stressful, and I want to make sure I don't jump from the fire to the frying pan. 

Thanks for your help!

First of all, Axolotl is hiring for a significant amount of work that will begin shortly.

When 90% of your workers want to work 1st shift, there seems to be issues with low work.  When workers are willing to work 2nd and 3rd shift, they seem to not run out of work as much, if at all.

The recruiter IS NOT THE SUPERVISOR.  Axolotl has a separate recruiter who does applicant screening, initial interviews and testing.  If everything goes good with this recruiter, then there will an interview with management, i.e. supervisor and/or manager.

ALSO, DOWNTIME IS NOT DETERMINED BY HOW LONG YOU HAVE BEEN THERE.

I am not a manager or supervisor or QA.  I am an MT.  I wish people would get all of their facts straight before coming onto a public board and spreading things that are just not true. 

I absolutely LOVE this company.  They treat people with respect, provide great benefits and GREAT PAY.  One should feel lucky to have the opportunity to work for them.

How does Axolotl define a line?  Do they pay for spaces, headers, footers, & expansions?  Are you docked for blanks or sending things to QA?  If so, how much.

Thanks for the info.

Have a fabulous 4th!

Cost for family is less than $300 for medical, dental and vision with good coverage.

MTSO, which MTSO it is and whether the coverage is decent?  I currently pay $92.00 a pay period for decent coverage but am trying to figure out if I am getting a good deal or if I could do better elsewhere.

TIA.

to here goes...firstly, I don't know about the platform, only that it is Word based. Secondly, I have many years cardio, and thirdly, no the test was not hard. Still looking for any answers to my questions above. Thanks in advance.

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.
