Is it safe to ask a company after one year for a raise? Do companies give raises?
 Curious
Does FutureNet give annual raises or any type of raises? nm

MDI-FL does not give any raises.
Platforms stink. Bad accounts. Nasty people to deal with. Very disorganized, poor training, a regular witch in the HR/payroll department who takes pride in being condescending and mean. Flexible? Depends whether you are teacher's pet or not. If not, you get the worst accounts they have. Forget communication. There is none, but never ask a question because you will get a wrong answer and still be in the dog house. They really need some lessons on how to treat people like people, not like you are a robot and want to work 24/7.
Do they ever give raises? nm

Yes they give raises; for example,
I received a nice raise after 30 days, and the starting cpl was already 9 cpl. Very generous to work for and you are treated respectfully, even if QA gives you constructive criticism. They are never demeaning or reprimanding, and believe me I have worked where QA people could care less how they make you feel. No so with MDI. I am here for life!
They do NOT give raises..
Met many who work for them and they have NEVER gotten a raise...ever....
MDI doesn't give raises.

Does Webmedx give raises and
can you work a Mon-Fri schedule? Do you have any holidays off or do you have to use PTO? TIA
Does Transtech give raises?

Do companies give raises?
Not in this economy. Just give thanks you have a job.
If MT companies do not give out raises, how do they sm
expect you to keep up with the cost of living? I've been at my company for 2 years and was shot down for a raise. I know others have been at their companies much long with no raises. If I worked at a hospital or clinic, I would have gotten a raise by now. Just something to show the appreciate me would be nice! Are all companies this greedy?

Does Keystrokes give line raises. If so, when and how much.
Very interested
They paid 7 & 8 cpl before and didn't give raises. They were using

Is OSI the only company that gives yearly raises?

Wonder if those support in the office get any raises. We are paying their raises, huh?
you know they ARE getting raises!
or maybe it's really a good company. Give me a break. If a company isn't talked about sm
on here, good or bad, it's probably too small to matter and does not offer benefits or anything at all.
Can you give the name of the company - sm
I am in the process of looking for a new job and really don't want to choose one that doesn't pay on time!
TIA!
And, why don't they give their company name?
They should be up front about it. It would save everyone a lot of time.
You need to give a reason. Not every company
is a good match for every MT and someone may have had a personality conflict or some such thing so then they say it is a bad company. You need to list facts like they don't pay on time, their line counts are off, sound quality is terrible, etc.
Can you give us the first letter of the company's name.
nm
Can you give me any specifics on this company?
Could you give me any specifics on this company? I would like to know more. Thanks.
could you give initials of company? I have been done like this before and
might be the same company. I FINALLY got paid
yes, MTStars says it is okay to give company name.
nm
you can, and should, give the company name on this board.
nm
again, it's okay and encouraged to give company name
nm
again, per moderator okay to give company name.

For IC status, that's an insult. Can you give us a company name?

I have been at Keystrokes a while and have to give kudos to what I think is the best company out the
not always great in the beginning and I left and came back a few years ago. I am so glad that I did. The changes have been wonderful. I think it is refreshing to see a company actually improve over time with growth instead of going downhill.
I agree with you!
Clever way to give-up a company name that doesn't
Company start with an "E"..give us a hint. If they are doing it to someone else too, then I&#
Throwing in the towel is one way of putting it. I've done this routine too many times.
Can you give me a hint as to which company? The same thing happens to me too and I am an IC. nm

it's okay to give company names, per moderator.

Maybe the company you work for would give you an advance? sm
Depending upon where you work, how long you have been there, size of the company, etc., that might be a consideration. Also, maybe other temporary work, like Kelly Girls (if they even have that anymore). I know we used to have temps in our office that were paid every week.
The pawn shop idea might be a good one. I think if you don't have the money in 30 days, you can just pay the interest or whatever. You wouldn't lose the instruments. If you are willing to part with someone, ebay and Craigslist can provide some quick cash. Good luck to you. I am my sole support, and I have been in tight situations before and know how scary that can be. My heart goes out to you. 
Work not taken-Give company a chance
I have been with Transcend for almost 6 years and while they are not a perfect company they are better than most. There have been mergers in the past-I actually came from the other MDI (which was a much more laid back company). As far as I've seen with past mergers you get to keep your work. They don't take you off it and give it to someone else. That makes no sense to have to train new MTs for your accts and you on something else. I know you are unhappy that you have to make a change but give Transcend a chance. They are a good company. Is it a good fit for everyone? No, but you won't know until you give it a chance with an open mind. And before the bashers get on and say I am management, I am not, just another in the trenches MT who has worked for other services in the past. As far as outsourcing, I know it is done but as far as I can tell it is not a lot. I work on 2 different platforms and both have plenty of work and have had for quite a while now.
I mean, any info you can give me about this company would be greatly appreciated.

Can you give us the name of the company and if it's clinic or acute care? Thx. nm

Can you give the initials of this company to save others some grief? nm

Then you need to be professional, give a company website than can be checked out sm
and let people apply there. Why in the world would you expect people to get their personal info to you, if you are less than professional yourself. I certainly would not, especially after your post here.
How is turning you down for a position rude? Are they, or any other company, obligated to give you
No. As a recruiter, I am seeing this more and more. Maybe the hours you were available did not match what they needed. Maybe your equipment or speciality or background did not match. How is it rude not to hire someone? There would be no need for interviews if everyone was just hired because they applied. I did not understand most of this until I started recruiting. The company I work for is spoken well of on this board and then bashed at other times. I see a lot of people that think they are entitled to a position or a shift or a certain account. It is difficult to be on this side.
We give up on your naysayers. Great company, but if you choose to believe it's fishy, your loss.

MedWrite Transcription... anyone work/worked for this company can give me any info?

raises
best way to get a raise with MQ is to ask for it and keep asking. I don't know why they don't give "across the board" raises. The thing I have heard in the past is type more to make more. I say learn every work type you can and make yourself indispensable!
raises with MQ
would you mind telling which office that is? used to be in Houston and it closed down and now in Dallas. you had to ask for a yearly review. they didn't volunteer that info unless you asked. first time when i asked for a yearly review they got around to it 6 months later. gave me all kinds of BS why I didn't qualify for a raise. i asked for a yearly review this year and i was told that i sent over 20% to QA. all i have to say is that you were extremely lucky. are you SE or FT?
