Didn't it say there would be no more incentive bonuses for editing?? You may have a lot of typing now, but it isn't going to be that way for long.

I got an automated email shortly after and received info from Debra shortly after that. NM

I couldn't at 4 cpl for editing
I went deeply in debt at 4 cpl for editing, no way would I do it for 3 cpl.
Not when 80% or more of the VR reports require 90% editing.
When 90% require only 10-20% editing, THEN you can make money, which is my understanding of more how VR should acutally operate.
Yes, check some of the ads - 2-3 CPL for editing is STANDARD now. nm

Check your email.
All of this information is in your new hire orientation documentation. If you haven't received it yet, you'll get it. And they do discuss it in the offer/interview.
Check your email! nm

Please check your email. (nm)
All opinions are welcome here. You need to check your email. NM
I emailed you, please check your email...need info...
thanks!!!
Let me check my paperwork and I'll shoot you an email. NM
Yes, and very shortly (see inside)
The assumptions that we're 'slow typists', 'newbies', or whatever other negative insinuations that can be construed will start flying.
I'd been an MT for 15 years before VR came along. I went into it with an open mind and took an immediate liking to it.
While it might not be for everyone, I sometimes get so exasperated with other posters insinuating that because an MT enjoys VR, that MT must be somehow inferior or incompetent.
Glad to know I'm not the only one who enjoys it :-)
I left SPi shortly before that happened
I wasn't all that surprised when I read about it. I was working for Cymed when they were bought out by SPi. Everything went down hill after that happened. There was less and less work each day, constantly changing management, and lots of other problems. I finally got fed up and changed companies and have been very happy ever since. Not too long after I left SPi, I came on here and read about that massive layoff. I knew it was coming, but I was kind of surprised that it happened so soon. This was over 2 years ago, but I'm still glad that I got out of there when I did!
I worked for them shortly. They were very nice and paid well and on time. sm
This what I did not like. On the account I had, each report had to be saved separately and then individually sent. It seemed to take a lot of time monkeying around with each separate file which was only about 10 to 11 lines long. I do know that not all of their accounts are like this. They were extremely nice people and paid well!!
Worked there shortly. Pretty disorganized. Hard to understand the

I used to have a QA guy that couldn't transcribe, couldn't fill in a blank,
but was anal retentive when it came to punctuation. You would have a report with 10 blanks in it because of poor sound quality, and he wouldn't fill in one blank, but he had put commas all throughout your report, or taken apostrophes out, etc. and he wasn't correct in his punctuation a lot of the time. Several of the MTs complained about him and asked to not have him do their QA, so he was demoted from QA to an MT. Well, as I said earlier, he couldn't fill in a blank. I saw a couple of his reports and there was blank after blank in reports that I had no trouble with at all. He also didn't proof his reports because he would have inapproriate/incorrect expansions in them. Not sure if he left on his own, or didn't really have a choice. Anyway, talk to your supervisor. Maybe this person is just on a power trip, knows you are new and wants to train you to do it her way, even if your way isn't incorrect. I think punctuation is a valid issue, but if it doesn't change the integrity of the report and there are no other errors it shouldn't be flagged by QA. You could also take into account her corrections and maybe try to use a few more commas, etc. and that might help.
Oh, I couldn't understand them. I didn't try them all, but the first couple, I couldn't und

couldn't -- you couldn't care less

Couldn't...you couldn't care less.

I think your getting it all wrong.. She is probably doing VR editing..not the same as QA editing..
Does make a difference as you are not correcting someone's else work.. just VR to make sure the sentences make sense, right punctuation etc..If you have good English skills, it is not that difficult but this 1.5 cpl is a joke.
Check Monster, CareerBuilder, MedHunters.com. Check with the companies you see listed if they're

Hey OrthoMT.. tried to email you back but the email was returned as undeliverable..
Basically, this is what I'd like to know.. You can email me the information if you like..First off, are they hiring for ortho? and what is their scheduling like, FT or PT, IC status or employee etc. I would like to find a company that is pretty flexible. Also, what platform do they use? I have worked at some like you were saying, took forever to get the line count and I want to work 8 hours and be done. Oh, do you have benefits, and what are they like if you have them? Thanks for any information you can give..
No, but I will email the Moderators as soon as I find the email. You know it's the truth, Becky.

Administrator- could you email me. I never posted that message about Netmed, yet it came to my email
address and I figured it out when someone from Netmed contacted me about my post. Is it possible for someone to steal and use your email address to post things. I thought there was some validation in place.
I am reposting email address, not sure why you cannot email me. nm

They email everyone a copy of the newsletter. Email and ask
and they will email you one if you haven't been receiving it.
Couldn't Have Said It Better Myself!
You are correct!
Boy, I couldn't have put that better
I hope you find what you're looking for. I'm still looking too. Have 8 W2's to turn in this year.
I already have.... couldn't take it any more. nm

Very good post! Very straight forward and honest. I was a recruiter as well, it can be pretty good money, but as this poster said, you are told what you need to say and a lot of the time given false information about the account you are hiring for. It's a very rewarding job most of the time and I personally met a ton of truly wonderful people, but on the flip side - this is the person who gets nailed the minute something goes wrong whether it from the new employee or the supervisor of the account. Very thankless position. Think twice before wishing to do this.. very high stress. Good luck to you!!
No, no, no - that couldn't have been the SAME
She would never be condescending or disrespectful of MTs. She, herself, is an MT and has the deepest respect for what we do. I think you must have spoken to someone else.

Read carefully and learn.

Yep, yep...couldn't have said it better myself
We GaGirls got it goin'on...very well put, very well said...Thank you for summing up the whole ugly situation.

I couldn't have said that any better myself
I agree. This is an information board. People are supposed to come on here and ask questions about companies. Isn't that the point of this forum??? A lot of information is very outdated and people would like current info about companies before applying with them. Lighten up. If someone asking a simple question irritates you that much, then just ignore the post. This is the exact reason why I don't come on this site nearly as much as I used to. Almost every time I have ever asked a question or posted a response to someone else's question, I just about always had at least one person jump all over me. It's a shame.
LOL - couldn't have said it better myself.
  
couldn't have said it better!
AGREE WITH YOU TOTALLY --- I'm getting tired of eating dirt!!!
I couldn't have said it any better....
I'm just about sick of testing, testing, and more testing and hearing nothing or some cpl offer that isn't enough to survive on. I'll leave it at that. You've said it all. I think it's time to change professions. It's pathetic.

Credit check, FBI check was not for
me. The notion that if you don't pay your bills means your not a responsible person really kills me!!! Lots of people have $$ problems, especially if you are an MT, LOL!!! They are the only company I know that does these checks. Seems a little anal to me!!!
They can check mine if I can check theirs...nm
Very well said! I couldn't agree more! (nm)
:)
couldn't agree more
I worked for MQ for 6 years, and they went from bad to worse. I am glad I do not work there anymore. I worked every weekend (my choice) and almost every holiday for them. They do not give you any differential for working w/e or holidays and will try to screw you out of any $$ they possibly can. After 6 years, no one even said thank you, good luck..nothing!!! I now work for a company that actually appreciates my work!
Bravo! Couldn't have said it better myself
Never had a problem with MQ until DQS. I am chained to this desk from sun up to sun down just trying to make the line count. It was NOT like that before DQS - I actually made very good, but now I can barely get by. What is really disturbing to me is that it is obvious a very big problem to a large number of MTs, yet MQ turns a blind eye. I guess as long as the big dogs are getting their fair share, then they are not worried about who is actually keeping them in business - the MTs. Without us, where would they be??
Couldn't agree more, LOL! (nm)
