Do you really mean 12/14/05 or 2/14/06? Stinks either way. nm

0.7 cpl STINKS
I heard back too. No thanks!
GP.... This really stinks.......... sm
I'm really sorry it has happened to you, but like one poster said below, I rather think the ACLU would be interested in this.
I had an employer who threatened to sue me once when I left the company if I influenced any MTs to go with me (as though I had that much influence). I never heard another peep out of him, and hopefully you won't out of this either. I'd cross my fingers for you, but that makes it kinda hard to type. ;o)
I'd take the other job offer. MQ stinks!

Their program stinks!

Cymed STINKS....sm
If you are considering working for this company, they pay 7 cpl for employee status, they do NOT pay for spaces and the lady that does the training is so rude it ain't funny....either she is overworked or she is just a wicked cow!
PLUS, they do outsource and some of the offices lie to you and say they pay for spaces, they don't.
I wouldn't say DSG stinks.....
I previously worked at DSG, but didn't stay because of the sound quality. I now work at GIMT, and their sound quality doesn't even compare! It's so much better than DSG. Other than the sound quality, DSG was okay.
The whole thing stinks. (sm)
I don't think you are getting it! You do realize that before you get a job to edit that it first goes past an Editor in India, don't you?
Crazy stuff, an offshore MT types it, it is then edited by an offshore editor (who is not much better than the MT)and then it comes to us to be edited again with a 100% listen.
I think we have all accepted the fact that offshoring is a reality and we all knew when we accepted the position with MW that we would be editing offshore work, but I did not sign up to work for slave wages ($8) an hour.
I have no clue what your situation is, but I am way too good to work for that. I also have more pride in myself then to be insulted by the people of MW.
I understand, but that stinks for us who need help...
I figured that would be the answer :( Oh well, back to square one.
The pay stinks, in my opinion.

United Stinks!
I tried to work for United for a few days. I specified MULTIPLE times I am NOT a morning person. They disrespected me and called ALL DAY, started phoning before 7 a.m. to ensure I don't sleep at all since I went to bed after 6 a.m.!!!! They sent an email telling me to phone them when I feel like speaking to them. Great...I won't break any nails dialing the phone - TWO MORE STAFF PEOPLE CALLED ME TO HARASS FURTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why were they calling? To ask why I was not typing right then!!! Well duh!!! Second shift begins at 3 p.m. my time and all this drama was going on at 1 p.m. my time!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!!!! GET AN EDUCATION!!!!!!!! LEARN THE TIME ZONES JERKS!!!!!!!!! So, for the money and the harassment and the sweat shop atmosphere, I recommend any other company. This one is not worth the hassle, the time, or the energy since the staff is disrespectful, hateful, inflexible, inconsiderate, unprofessional and unacceptable. Is the money even worth it? No, for my 15 years' experience, they offered 0.08 a line. Oh..another thing...I told them I would work this weekend - they don't have an auto job feed so it took over 3-4 hours for someone to 'send me work since their system is antiquated. Yes, you have to rely on someone to send you work in order to have anything to type and then they send you 2 jobs, you type, you request more work, and you get more work after having downtime of 2 hours. So...in 8 hours, you are lucky to have typed 5-8 jobs. So, to get up to 15 jobs, count on 12-16 hours a day!!!!
stinks as compared to what?
x
maybe the account stinks
nm
It stinks right now, worse than ever - sm
It seems no one pays much anymore and if they don't post their pay and ask you to state what your requirements are and you tell them, you never hear from them again. Or worse, they have idiotic platforms that are not MT friendly, no matter what they say. I swear there are no decent-paying jobs out there anymore for the MTs who have been doing this for over 20 years.
It's still Apex and it still stinks sm
I'm hoping to leave there this week. It is Apex and it really is the pits. There is nothing MT friendly about it. I also came to realize they only have 1 account so with that always running low there isn't much hope for making a living there.
yes, it is Scribe and it stinks! nm
xxxxxxxxxx
The platform stinks.
a'fkdakdafkd
You emailed me to tell my pay stinks? sm
well first of all, I work part-time 4 hours a day, and make up to $100 a day, so that is $25 an hour, so don't email me and tell me I don't make squat. you don't know anything about my situation, and at least I don't make 4 cents a line for VR, so I consider myself fortunate. Why did you ask such a weird question, then I answer, then you rip. Just another one of the bitter, unprofessional people on this board.
The company stinks and if you look back through
the archives you'll be hard pressed to find a good post about them, and then they have to be from someone in management. Even people that didn't listen to our experience and went to work for them are living and regretting they didn't listen. Absolute worst company there is.
Exactly. India work stinks.

grapevine that their platform stinks. Otherwise, I know nothing
m
I knew Transcend stinks,
and they try to hide behind a femce with everything including training pay, which you do not get.
They overhire. Their program stinks.
The training is worse. They outsource work so there is nothing left. The transcription program is horrible and you do 3 times as much work to do a document as you would anyplace else. You cannot use automatic numbering, you cannot do this, you cannot do that, and new rules every day. You spend all day clicking and changing everything.
My account is just over the border in US and it stinks.

Sorry, but your whole story stinks and is really gettting so old!nm
nm
Sorry VR STINKS, I emailed you instead of posting.
You can disregard or share!
She is nice and she does pay promptly and in full, but the pay stinks.
.
That puts it into perspective - and 16 an hour stinks!
x
No - significantly decreased. Bayscribe stinks! nm

Transcend stinks...They used to be awesome but it has gone from bad to worse.
My line count has gone down so I have no doubt they are manipulating line counts and communication is the worse. Everything falls on deaf ears unless they have a problem with you, then they email you very quickly, but forget getting help on anything else. The more TL and QA people they have added the worse it has gotten. Maybe the problem is that they are not sure what their job descriptions are so no one answers emails. I'm done with them.
Stinks, doesn't it? Seems like everytime they do an upgrade sm
the lines get tougher to get.
GIMT
I work for GIMT and they are very good to work for. I have no complaints whatsoever. I do mostly oncology accounts with them and I love working for them.
Can anyone tell me anything about GIMT out of GA? TIA

GIMT
How do you get ahold of this company
GIMT
nm
GIMT
What is GIMT? I can't find info for them.....do they have a website? Thanks
GIMT (sm)
I have seen a lot about them the last couple days. Does anybody know how strict they are with their scheduling. What is the chance that they might allow a 10-hour window to work in? Thanks!
Do not do DSG, but do try GIMT
nm
GIMT
How can I locate GIMT ..... what do the initials stand for? I really need a company that has templates. Mine has hardly any, and it is hard to get in enough lines every day. I work over 8 hours sometimes and still cannot get in my lines.
Who is GIMT?
Please, do tell.
gimt
Go down further and you will find a lot of information. I am starting for them today and I think it is going to be great!
GIMT
I have been with them for 2 years. The only time work has been slow for me is around holidays when the clinics are closed, which works for me. I find the QA information is very helpful and they follow the AAMT BOS. Great company to work for.
GIMT
 I have only good things to say about Golden Isles. But as posted, to each his own, I guess we all have our priorities in what we want in a company. I found the owner to be awesome, very patient and easy to work with. Krispy, email me for more information.
GIMT
I also work for GIMT and love working for them They are really great people and the QA staff are very helpful and friendly as well. My suggestion would be to check out their website and contact them gimtnet.com
Good luck with your search 
GIMT
Is the pay on time? Is there direct deposit? How long do you wait for your first check? Sorry for all the questions but I've been burned more than once.
GIMT
I'm with you 
Aren't they a great bunch of people to work for
GIMT
I work for GIMT--maybe I can help you out.
GIMT
Golden Isles hires employee status, the pay is fair, the work is good, dictators are good, Mary and all her staff are very nice, pay is always on time. I would recommend this company to anyone! And before anyone asks, no I do not work for them anymore and am not management. If I had not been offered full-time at my other job I would still be there!
GIMT
Their platform is extremely easy. Work with Word, have any shortcut program you choose, using AOL IM to keep in constant contact with everyone working....and believe me, questions are answered immediately with this. After what I am reading on these boards about other companies, this one is a breeze. One thing detrimental, very heavy main ESL account. Plan on more than 50% of your time spent on this. No QA demands, such as 99% or whatever these ridiculous companies are asking for....especially with a heavy ESL account. They do not take away from your pay for a lower QA score, heck they don't even give you a QA score. You are only asked to be dependable and your work good....very good company. Small company, which is turning out to be the best these days. Another detrimental, no benefits, but they have in their near future plans paid time off and incentive.
GIMT?
