Ditto--My Webmedx account is 90% ESL!! I would not SM

Posted By: Nurse Diesel on 2008-07-23
In Reply to: Don't be deterred by the ESL..sm - Country MT

change it for the world, either (meaning I REALLY love this account). ESLs are a part of our job, and the more one can learn to love them, the better off! :-) Not to mention I get paid at the top of the scale because my account has such high ESL.

However, I do understand how intimidating ESL can be for some people. I guess it just takes time to get past that. Just give ESL a chance, you might be pleasantly surprised! Good luck in whatever you choose...

ditto, I work at Webmedx too. SM
They really value their people if you do your schedule as promised and are not a slacker like some.
They lost big account. Go to Webmedx with
xx
that's because Webmedx took over a huge account they used to have. nm
.
Can anyone tell me what the Webmedx account is that is 40% ESLs? sm
I am considering working for them and would like to know the ease of the platform, flexibility of the supervisors, work load, and benefits.  Thanks to anyone who can provide me with this information.  I looked in archives, but everything is so iffy and not really clear to me. 
Did you call WebMedx to verify that they have the account? NM

NM


WebmedX got the account. I was hired by them today for

the account.   I was also told by another company that they had bid on the account themselves and were told by the account that they were not going to renew with QT.  This was SEVERAL months ago.   Some people have been called about another account that was lost in addition to the big one. 


My company lost the account I had worked on for 5 years. Webmedx got the
account so I followed it.   I have interviewed with about a dozen companies the last year and out of all of them the only ones I considered were Keystrokes and Webmedx. 
Ditto that ditto..ESLs drove me out too...nm
nm
Ditto, ditto, ditto. My experience exactly.
I have never typed so fast and made so little in my life except for at Amphion. Good for supplemental income but not if you really need some money.
That account in Texas was not a MQ account. They did not use DQS on that account until KS started.
They are moving 3 other accounts to DQS between now and January 1st. I asked. The MQ accounts they have gotten in the past did not go to DQS. I followed my old account, which is how I know, and it was Meditech. The account is still run by KS and is a big account too.
What is Webmedx FL? Webmedx itself is located in Pittsburgh & Atlanta. nm
.
Repeatedly told another new account would come soon, but it never did. In fact, our slow account is.
everyone else's backup account. What a disorganized mess.
Then when we MT's are **thrown on** an account because of lack of work on our account

What is so hard to understand about that? 


Then we have that account info filed away in a folder in our Outlook Express by name of account and can look at past emails sent out regarding that account.  Not fun to be tossed on an account that you have never seen NOR ever received an email on.  Sounds like business to me. 


You are wrong about the account. KS dumped the account for several reasons. sm
It happened quickly and was unexpected but it was really for the best. Keystrokes does not string people along or lie to you. After being with MQ for too long, I am happy there, although it is not for everyone.

I really would give them a call as the other poster suggested. That whole situation was a nightmare for everyone including management but the account pulled a fast one on them.

I have the facts on this because I have a good friend at the hospital and what she told me matched what my manager did.

I know that they are trying to give more when so many companies are giving less and taking away more.
Webmedx ad apply at Webmedx or Transhealth ? (sm)
Apply to one address if you need equipment, another if you want to use your own?  Does this mean they are still acting as 2 separate companies?   Can anyone explain this?
ditto
Excuse me for speaking my opinion. If those in the management team weren't so worried about shooting off RUDE emails maybe they could reply to a question I had last week that is now 120 hours old and still have no answer to my question. People just blow me away especially at SS.
Ditto.

Don't stretch what I said.  I said it was rude to say get a life to someone who is trying as hard as they can already. That's what my post was about, so don't twist my words either.  There is a shortage of work and you know it. You said it's common this time of year and I'm not arguing that.  I'm agreeing with you.  About time you recognized that there is a work shortage and stopped candy coating it.  Because this shortage has been going on for a while now, not just the summer months.  My post wasn't so much about the shortage as it was about the rude comment.  It WAS rude to those people who are already giving up a lot of their life to Transcend.  


ditto for me
Same here. (actually twice)

Ditto everything you are saying. MQ is definitely up to something and I think a lot of MTs are and
will continue to walk as they continue to come up with new ways it seems to get rid of MTs and QA people. I still think they are getting ready for a merger or sell out.
ditto
leave email address
Ditto
I found nothing to like about it either. I'm actually taking a pay cut, to have more restrictions and expectations put on me, and benefits I don't need or want.

The $50 I'm losing every month on my internet pay was enough to make me want to quit, the rest was just icing on the cake.




Ditto - NM

Ditto - sm
I agree - and when you have no idea what to get anyone, let alone the money to buy it, plus all the other preparations that go with the season, it's just not worth it. The real reason for the season is totally disregarded. I truly hate this time of year.
Ditto...

Didn't pass the test either - though I thought I did pretty well.  Said I could retest in six months or if I was willing to purchase the required textbooks I could retest immediately.  I emailed them back asking what the required textbooks were, but never got an answer.  Oh, well!!


 


 


Ditto.
I'm always amazed at this. Yes, they most certainly do beg for the jobs and then when they get it...cry, cry, cry.

If you want work that is somewhat easy, go do clinic work. There is no such thing as easy acute care work. There are lots of dictators on most acute care accounts. Hospitals are pretty big...ya know? Big hospital=lots of docs.

You may want to go get a job in a different field. Your poor skills as an MT has nothing to do with Spheris. You'll always have poor skills if you don't try.
ditto the above about ETP
Totally disorganized, unprofessional, plays favorites, lies about work amount, low work most of the time and just generally treats their employees like cattle, worked there 4 years much to my dismay!!
Ditto that.

I couldn't have said it better myself.  Having done the rounds with other nationals and working in house, I am thrilled to be with this company after my 25+ as an MT professional. 
Ditto that.....nm

Ditto on SS.

I have been an intern with Deb for a month now and she more than goes out of her way for those of us determied to be an MT. She is always nice and helpful and I feel very lucky to be learning from her.
Ditto!!
What an organized piece of sorry xcuse of a company!! I don't like having to ask and ask and ask and ask about my check. And, you see this woman on IM but yet she never answers you unless you send a threatening IM about reporting her to the company she subcontracts for. Gone from there for good!
Ditto!
Beautifully said!
Ditto and then some
None of SoftScript's managers know proper grammar or spelling, just pathetic, but must be an embarrassment when they contact their clients. With managers that dense you can do much better.

OSI managers know proper sentence construction with the exception of QA manager who is in a class by herself but they send work offshore so you don't need that.

Oracle and TTS are awful overall and MDI in FL outsources as well.

Hope this helps. Slim pickins.
ditto that

They also give an anniversary bonus of $100 for each year you've worked for them. I'm a year away from my 5th anniversary when I will bump up to 3 weeks vacation. Great place.
ditto for me

I also would like to thank DRC/Acusis for the very nice MT week gift.  I am so proud for work for such a wonderful company.
Ditto for me...
Trained 1 day, worked 1 day, then no work...... quit.

Had huge issues with their line counting method. However, if everything sounds ok to you try it out and let us know if its gotten better.

Believe me I feel your pain. When I started at MQ I used dial up (i'm in the country too) but then was able to get satellite 'net. I don't know if they woulda hired me if I had been using satellite before but they know now and although they made it clear they don't prefer it, they know it's what I need for my job. Because of other problems I'm looking elsewhere for a job but the current trend is No Satellite internet, so I dunno. I may be stuck there afterall.

ditto what you say...
and I'm a GaGirl too...
