Axolotl pays holidays
We get 8 hours of holiday pay.  If we work, we get our regular line rate PLUS the holiday pay and have the option of taking our holiday off another day.  GREAT COMPANY!!!
I am sure that she still posts, just under diff name.

No shift diff??
I've ALWAYS gotten a 2nd shift differential in Ohio...wow, that's not fair to U.
Very few. More often a 2nd or 3rd shift diff will

We are SE not IC. Does that make diff for U/E?

There are diff Sten-Tels (sm)

I worked for them (the one in Springfield, MA) for about 18 months, up until September.  I ended up quitting because there was no work and I could not get anyone, from my account supervisor to HR management, to either a) tell me why the account I was on dried up even though the docs had just opened a second office, or b) get me onto an account that had work, or even c) respond to half my emails (account manager).  I did enjoy the work, it was straight typing (the platform I was on, they have 2), and the work was pretty consistent until mid-July.  After six weeks of begging, I had to move on.  Oh, and the kicker?  When I would actually get work, I could tell by the job number that literally 10s of thousands of jobs had moved through the system since the last time I worked.  But they couldn't find any jobs for me to do....And don't zing me on QA, please.  In the 18 months I was there I only had maybe 5-6 reports come back to be fixed or with notes from the client, and that was early on.


Now, having said that - if they called me and offered me work again under a different account supervisor would I take it? Absolutely. 


There are many different Sten-Tels out there, and from what I can tell they are mostly franchises, with the main branch being the one in Springfield.  They pay once a month, and the checks were usually delievered via USPS anywhere from actually on the 15th to up to a week later.  There were some pay discrepancies a couple of times, but as soon as I mentioned them they were fixed. 


Hope that helps.

Transtech does have shift diff's for 2nd, 3rd,
Don't know cost of family insurance.
Actually, that 10% I stated was too low - what is the diff between cpl spaces vs nonspaces?

What do you mean by wkd/diff to line 1 - have to work whole weekend?

I work for 2 diff MT companies and love it
Like you I do not need insurance. I like the differences between the two companies I work for, both have their pros and cons (as any company does),the flexibility is better than being a full-time MT for one company but the flexibility is still limited but it is there...the second company I work for is really really good if you have to flex your schedule...for me changing companies usually was becuase of the hours not working for me, this is a solution that has worked for me for over a year now and I have been a transcriber for 31 years...good luck, do what is best for you!!!
ps with the second company I asked for more money than I was making with the first company and ended up getting what I asked for..GOOD LUCK
I believe OP is referring to DocuMed in NJ (dff spelling, diff co.)

A friend's printed offer said 6-8.5 cpl with CMTs making more. Don't know about shift diff. or

Was there a short time last year. You work as an employee, not IC. Different software/diff. accts.

I got a new job but it pays less. nm

QA pays much much less than MT
/
MQ pays its MTs less than
cleaning ladies make. Believe me, there are many other jobs out there that will give you better than the pittance (and bad treatment) MQ has to offer. You deserve better. Don't settle for MQ's nonsense.

MDI pays 9-11 cpl.

My VR pays at
4 cents a line. I really hate to see that places are going even lower than that. My platform is an excellent one and if not for that would never be able to make the $20+ per hour pay that I make. It is so unresonable for these places to just cut pay to the bone. How will anyone be able to make any kind of living if this keeps on? From what I have seen over the years, VR has never gotten to the point where it can be on its own and by reducing the scale of pay, pretty soon companies will see MTers dropping like flies instead of doing their work.
OSi ALWAYS pays on time!
In all the time I have worked there they have never been delinquent.
That's TransHealth that pays that way. nm

I would not go with a company that pays so low
and lies about stuff
keystrokes pays, are they......

On time?  I do hope so !  Just because we work at home, some of these companies think, for some reason, that we will do the work (and it is a REAL job) for no pay.  We ought to have the RIGHT to do that to them !



Employee pays ALL?
At my current company I only pay $75 per month - company pays rest. Sounds a bit odd, I must agree.
Almost every company pays more
Just pick any other company and apply.
Transolutions pays 100.00 for every sm
year that you are employed. Otherwise, they don't pay squat.
Who do you work for that pays
pays per minute?
Does anyone know who pays QA hourly? sm
I need a QA job that will pay me hourly, so if you have any leads, send them my way. :)
MQ pays QA by the hour.

Is it true that RIU pays 5 cpl for MTs? How do they keep them? sm

I have heard that they act real nice but are back stabbers too. 


I had a friend who was an MT with them and she stayed because they intimideated her into staying, told her that she would fail elsewhere.  Do they treat all their employees as slaves?


Sad.  P, my friend, said that they profess to be a good fine Christian company and then cheat, lie, and stab you behind your back?


Sad.

Anyone know what TransTech pays?
I saw their ad, but they don't having anything about starting cpl rate.  I have been a MT for 10+ years and don't want to waste my time testing with this company if they don't pay well.  Thanks!
Does anyone know what Keystrokes pays for RAD? (sm)

Is it still only $1.25 per page?  Or is it by line.  Need more up to date info.  Please!


who pays per report??

Can anyone tell me what companies pay per report for radiology and which ones have Meditech?  Thanks.


So where might you work? My co pays 6.5.
I'm not putting that down. I believe all MT work is equal. The companies do not seem to feel the same way.
Does anyone know how Transcend pays out
Their $1000 sign-on bonus?  Thanks so much!
Transcend pays still
one day, 4 hours with trainer = $60.00
It pays to take a "pay cut" sometimes
I made -good money- at my old MT job but in return for the -good money- I had to tolerate unqualified superiors whose arrogance and abuse would not be tolerated in most places. I stayed in the hot seat with those people for stupid reasons and none of it because of things I personally did wrong. I would not leave for a long time because I thought I could never make the same amount of money anywhere else and besides I was honestly too lazy to want to start over again. Finally though I had enough, my husband had enough, my kids had enough of my whining but never taking steps to get myself out of that situation.

I took what I thought would be a -pay cut- with another company but it turned out that my current facility is 10 times easier and the supervisors are actually qualified to supervise me. I could not be happier. I make more money even with a bit of a -pay cut- because I'm not constantly on mandatory phone calls for problems unrelated to me personally, plus spending time reading pointless emails. The line incentives help too. My account is so much easier, my supervisors leave me alone to do my work, and my family is happy at dinnertime.

Forget the cpl rate because alot of the time it is tied in to a bad company that is forced to pay so much because they can't keep good MT's. If you are in a similar situation to mine, stop whining, get off your lazy butt and find a company that pays you -maybe less- but will turn out to be more and that respects you and gives you good accounts.

Who pays the best for VR work?

Which companies pay the best for VR work?  What schedules do they require you to work?  Do they have benefits?  I have 2 children to support so I need to have a dependable work also.  Thanks in advance


 


MQ pays 70% of your MT rate. More than anyone else.
