Deventure has nice insurance
and fairly inexpensive. For employee pay, it isn't too bad.
Deventure insurance costs
I think I read somewhere that Deventure has Blue Cross insurance? If so what is the cost for single and also family?  What is their lpd requirement? TIA!
Just curious to know what health insurance DeVenture has - just want to know the name of it..nm

You didn't miss much not going with Deventure.
Whether you have 2 days or 20 years of experience, pay is the same - go wrap your head around that.  No raises EVER.  Never got the yearly bonus myself and never got a signon bonus.  There is some minimal shift differential for second and third but then those shifts include weekends.  Got too many accounts too fast and nobody - but nobody - is or was on top of this.  Promoting some and leaving vital positions unfilled while hiring to replace them is taking forever.  If you have 3 accounts (which is typical and all with different specifics), and in my case with an agreement between myself and HR that I could work outside of your schedule on one that I could build up my line count, they blocked me from my higher producing account while working off my shift, so I would work on their most difficult and less line producing account that was about to TAT and after 2 years of service with them.  Did I mention, situation agreed upon with HR and once again, on my own time, outside of my shift?  GRRR.  Doubt it will take long to replace Deventure job with a more organized and fair company with better pay.  But then again, there is always Walmart, and I'm not kidding. 
Cost of DeVenture's health insurance for families, anyone??
Considering applying, but in the past, the cost was just too high. TIA
Does anyone know what DeVenture offers in terms of insurance for famly coverage, costwise?
Thanks
We made D a millionaire, didn't we?

You really hit the nail on the head with you post.


I think you're correct.  We have to accept that MDI owners have the right to do what they please with their business.  I'm VERY sorry to lose MDI, but that's the way it goes sometimes.


BUT....  The WAY in which  D handled it was truly horrible.  In my opinion, they were devious and sneaky, leaving the work pools empty and saying nothing for weeks.  All that  time, I figured they had hired extra people for a new account that was supposedly coming on board, and that the new girls had to have some work until their account was up and running.  So I just tried to be patient about it.  Now, I feel like they made a total patsy out of me.


We did not deserve to be treated the way we were in this deal.  We helped to make D a multi-millionaire with our love of her company and our loyalty and skills.  She owed us better treatment than she gave us.  That's for sure.


Cancel that. I am going to look at others now.
Thanks for all the research you helped me with here, and thanks to MT stars archives. I just saved a lot of headaches, and although need to do more research, appreciate everyone's feedback.
I already have insurance through my husband's job, so I didn't need it.

You didn't miss much. Their insurance is awful.

IMO, your posts are rude. Guess we cancel each

Poll: How long does it take your MTSO to cancel
nm
agree, i didn't take the position because the health insurance stinks
the deductibles are too high
Actually, I didn't, but my point is taking out double premiums for insurance sm
and I am glad that you find my distress so amusing.  Perhaps you can go pick some wings off flies too while you're at it.
401k funds are protected by govt insurance similar to the insurance
that banks have (FDIC). It is safe even if the company goes under.
The insurance cost is double for Transcend but insurance probably doesn't factor in for her.
I have heard more good things about Axolotl than Transcend, although it seems Axolotl may be less flexible with your schedule and someone told me that QA was pretty strict, which should not matter either if you have worked for a hospital and know what your QA score is.
The insurance plan in my opinion is excellent insurance. I am not sure if it will change when it'
time to renew or not. I really hope not but I know that a lot of companies change every year in an effort to keep costs down because most insurance companies start raising rates after you have been with them a year. The insurance is Great West and they also have excellent dental and vision plans. I believe the cost is less than $70 a pay period for the employee.
u made 300 a week? That's more than I made there.
But no work, no pay. Nice ppl, they really are, some of the nicest in the business. Just can't communicate to save their lives and the recruiters are lying dogs.

I'd say if you're looking for part-time work, as in less than 20 hrs a week's worth of work, then this place is for you. Use them as ur backup. Because guaranteed that's all they're using you for.


Insurance sucks compared to my old insurance... sm
The insurance seems like they don't want to cover anything, even simple prescriptions I used to pay 4 or 10 dollars on I now pay 20 to 43 dollars.  I like the company/people so far, just don't like the insurance.
I didn't say I didn't care, I just don't understand
why the sudden outrage over HL offshoring.  
Insurance Questions: Can you tell me what you pay for insurance through your

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.


DeVenture
Anybody work for DeVenture?  Need info.
Deventure...

Nice people, but I found their platform to be rather tedious and time-consuming.  Also very strict on scheduling and I needed more flexibility. 


HTH.. 


DeVenture ?
Any DeVenture feedback?  All e-mails kept confidential.  Thanks!
Deventure

I see unanswered posts about Deventure and thought I would give my opinion. I am new there, but impressed. Setup was extremely smooth and recruiter, supervisor, and tech people are on the ball. Good feedback and encouragement. Great accounts and not-so-great accounts. The constant ads are because they are adding new accounts by the minute.


 


DeVenture

I was just hired by DeVenture. Can anyone tell me anything at all about this company that they would like to share?


Thanks in advance!


Did you say you are now with DeVenture?
I think you did in another post, if I'm mistaken I apologize!  This totally sounds like something they would do.  Truly some great people there!
deventure
does anyone know if deventure has work strictly in the US or do they outsource to india?  I was wondering whether or not to apply but don't want to if they outsource.  Thanks in advance.
DeVenture??
Any opinions?  good/bad???
DeVenture -

Okay, I didn't get any responses about the equipment from DeVenture, so I have another question.  I have read that the pay is on the low side, but is it possible to make a decent salary with them? Is the platform user friendly?  Thanks.


DeVenture
I work part-time for DeVenture and you have you use your own computer. They did not provide me with a foot pedal either. They pay 4 cpl for editing.
DeVenture pay
DeVenture pays only 4 cpl for editing.
Deventure anybody? Looking for sm
some information. Line rate and lpd? M-F or do you work 1 day on the weekends? How is their major medical-affordable for a family? How long does it take to kick in? Just trying to get a few answers first before I fill out the app.
How is the pay at DeVenture?

Deventure Pay
Actually, that's pretty good rate of pay for eScription. I get 3.9 cents per line. This week, I'm up to 600 lph.
DeVenture
I have one main and two backups. Plenty of work on all of them.
Deventure
I've been with Deventure for over 2 years. I'm very happy there also.
deventure VR pay
Does anybody know what Deventure pays for VR position? Thanks.
Deventure
I really thought this was going to be a great company to work for until the Recruiter/QA supervisor tried to cover herself/save face by telling a blatant lie.  The end. So, be careful and watch your back. Sometimes it is those who initially seem so nice and helpful that end up being not so honest.
Deventure

Hayseed,


I'm responding.  I just didn't see your note until now.

Deventure

Nope, I had a real recruitment nightmare experience with them.  They get a chapter in my TEMPORARY NIGHTMARES AS AN MT book whenever I write it.   I sent you a PM.

Deventure
Are you required to work weekends?  Do they supply equipment?  I am thinking about applying for third shift. 
DeVenture
I was just hired and I am not required to work weekends but I can if I want to. Yes, they supply equipment.
DeVenture might. nm
