Transcend bought MDI, so if Transcend sends work offshore, so does MDI. nm

Transcend does not offshore.
There are a lot of companies who do offshore and I understand the frustration, but please check your facts before you post. Transcend does not and has not ever offshored any of their work.
MDI does not offshore, Transcend does
I really like MDI .
So it's true that Transcend is going to offshore.
Otherwise she would have denied it, right?
keystrokes does not use offshore help, transcend
uses it a lot- one day you have work, the next day its slim pickins' - and you are left holding no paycheck. Transcend is ruthless and cares nothing about its MLS. It is just there for the dollar and you have to slave over a horrible platform, doing more clerical functions to get far less lines. My advice is to run from Transcend - masters of deceit- as fast as you can.
Larry just said that Transcend does offshore.

Transcend Services doesn't offshore....
visit the website at http://www.transcendservices.com
I thought Transcend did not offshore work.

offshore overseas.... not outsource .... correct term is offshore.

This seems to be pro-offshore board. Messages against offshore often just disappear.
:+
offshore to India, it's OFFSHORE (off shore), not outsource to India.

We heard Transcend is buying Keystrokes next. I'm not working for Transcend. No Way !

If MDI-FL is owned by Transcend and Transcend admittingly offshores, sm
then doesn't that make MDI a company that offshores? That's like saying that one branch of a company offshores but another does not, so they are excluded from the offshore label. If MDI-FL is part of Transcend and Transcend offshores, that means that they do.
RE: If MDI-FL is owned by Transcend and Transcend admittingly offshores, sm
Your hypothesis is incorrect. MDI is a wholly independent subsidary of Transcend, therefore, they were not a part of the experiment to offshore to evaluate cost/benefit ratio that Transcend only tried for 90 days (I believe the evaluation process is not still ongoing).
It is not Transcend. Transcend has not had control of
the accounts long enough to make any changes to anything. Maybe your account just slowed down like a lot of others did over the last few weeks. Everything will run status quo for a few months before any major changes are implemented. And give Transcend a chance. It is a good place to work and you will finally have some benefits that you will enjoy.
The offshore...
but that's to cover third shift. They have no intention of replacing their whole staff with offshore workers. There are things I don't like about the company but I believe them when they say that. They've been offshoring for years and have plenty of work for those who want to work in the US.
Offshore, offshore, offshore.

Do you me offshore
Outsource is what hospital do when they send their dictation to a company such as Transcend or OSI.
Offshoring is when they send their dictation to overseas transcriptionists. It is easy to confuse the two.
offshore definitely nm
nm
They offshore, top pay is around 8.5 cpl.
There have been several complaints the last couple of weeks about lack of work. Benefits are good. Don't know about platform. Check archives, lots about them lately.
Offshore
Diskriter and OSi also offshore.
Rather than have new posters search through tons of archives for answers to this question, maybe a list should be made of all companies that do offshore and posted permanently on the board, with revisions made as new ones come up. Just a suggestion...please no flames!
Yes, they offshore.
They have a facility in India. The fact that they offshore is all over this board. They have purchased several companies. I do not know if one of them is in New Jersey.
Did he tell you they offshore? nm
They offshore.
They both offshore
nm
They use offshore. sm
I saw this on their website under hospital solutions:
We offer a choice of Domestic or Philippine based medical transcription services with U.S based Quality Assurance specialists, and 24-hour or STAT file turnaround.
They offshore too.
It's offshore
I never thought the academic and research would go offshore too, but I was wrong.
With a pay cut like that...they might as well offshore.

Offshore sm
Medware, Focus Infomatics and OSI send work offshore. Don't know about the other one.
and it's no wonder MT is going offshore with
makes an MT work under these conditions!
They offshore. Very low pay.
.
I think you mean that they offshore.
.
They offshore. They don't pay very well.
They've changed the way they pay recently, which I think is a bit strange, but seems an attempt to make it seem like you are making more than you are.
No but they do offshore
They finally admitted it after denying it for years. I am looking for another job for a lot of reasons. One reason is the extra work without pay, and they do offshore on one of my accounts so I have to hop around to find work to do. I am tired of it. The other poster is correct-- they do not seem to care about the MTs.
Yes they do offshore
Yes, they offshore
They offshore, pay low.
I think two people who work there speak English.
Well they do offshore of course
They go give mentees a chance and spend the rest of their time figuring out ways to screw the rest of the MT's out of lines and money.
It's definitely the big O that is sent offshore
because I had to QA them.
Yes, they now offshore sm
They have what they call Precyse International now in India I believe.
It was a pretty great place to work, but as soon as they started to offshore, things changed quite quickly. They sent the good work away to Precyse International, at least on the accounts I worked on anyway. That is why I left.
They do offshore!
Yep, they do, I work for them and I do know this for a fact.
How do you know they offshore?
Their recruiter told me they don't. Specifically, I asked if that was how they got their name and was told Yes. But WHY are they ALWAYS advertising?
yes they offshore, otherwise not bad
they pay on time, pay rate is 6.5/9, insurance isn't great, but my supervisor and QA are good, they have incentives and overall are decent.
They offshore..nm

AND they don't offshore!!
//
They offshore, but don't really want you to know that. They
also slipped that the best dictators are offshored while the garbage is left for US MTs to do. The recruiter told me that I was lucky that an account that almost never has any openings because all the MTs love it and don't leave had an opening. After she mentioned the name I knew she was full of BS because I had worked on the account when I worked at YOG and I knew how difficult the account was. When I talked to the team leader she told me what a difficult account it was and that they couldn't keep MTs on it because it was so difficult.
The recruiter and the team leader IM'd the entire time I was talking to them, which I felt was very distracting and unprofessional.
I turned down the position so can't give you any specifics, but they sure did leave a bad taste in my mouth and I would never recommend them.
Offshore
Wonder where there QA is located. Oh, yeah, we got to fix those errors for peanuts per line.
PROBABLY DONE OFFSHORE!!!
NM
I don't know if they currently offshore, but
they have in the past. They lost so many accounts due to the poor quality of the offshore work. Positions are IC only and no direct deposit. I don't know how much work there is with Rad account, but there isn't much work otherwise.
I wouldn't recommend QT until they can prove themselves again. You can go back through the archives and read past posts about all the issues the last few months. There are still lots of hard feelings and lots of good MTs still struggling trying to find positions with decent companies.
Does MDI-MD offshore? SM
My primary will have work and managers starting getting huffy about TAT and then all of a sudden there is no work. Very dissappointed that I'm on an account that is consistently running out of work. Right now, I have nothing!
They (as far as we know) do not offshore, but
They have outsourced to a service -- no secret.
