seem to forget that we are supposed to be here to network and SUPPORT each other, not tear each other down and try to belittle someone.  They seem not to know even the basic courtesies.

I was offered a position with JLG, and they told me I could have my check Fed Ex'd.  I did consider it, although after 30 years of being an MT and having some bad experiences, I have decided not to go wtih it.  But I certainly do not consider myself stupid for considering it, and neither should you.  If I had taken the position, I would do what I do when I take any new job -- keep my old job until I find out if this really will work out for me.  Heck, right now I would probably keep it anyway as I need the extra cash.

Good luck in your search.  If you happen to find a great company with benefits that pays well and on time, let me know! 

I did it !  And so did another MT who worked on the same account. We sent our resumes out a few weeks ago without saying a word.  We both got "several" offers from companies with good reputations.  We were hired by different companies but with pretty much the same positives.  My company is a mid-sized MTSO, USA all the way, have accounts that have no interest in VR (first time I ever said thank God for ESL's) and treat their MTs with respect.  Hey, I'll take it!  No company is perfect (neither am I). It'll take some time to get adjusted.  But at least I know I'm not slaving away only to have a knife plunged in my back.  Read all these posts over and over until your frustration turns to anger.  You deserve better.  Go for it!

I just started a new job this week and can't believe the difference.  MQ treats you like a slave and it's only getting worse.  I've worked for MQ for 10 years and the last 2-3 years have been all downhill. 

I, too, though rely on my income (it's not monopoly money), which is why I'm still with them but part-time and soon to be PT flex.  I just wanted to make sure my new job is the right job for me and to give myself a chance to get my line count up.

As for the new company, better pay, straight transcription, 1 account which is loaded, and less supervision.  No E-time - I hate that thing. 

I never really thought about looking for another job until the last year or so and didn't realize there were so many options.  Having done 5 years of acute care at the Q has been well worth the effort. 

Go ahead - take the plunge! Send your resumes out and, like the other poster said, research your companies to find what you are looking for.  Not everyone has the same needs (for me, I don't need benefits, just good pay and flexibility).  There's a company out there that's right for you and you'll find it in no time! 

switched from part time to part time flex, got another job making 3.5 cents more per line with a fabulous account and a great platform.  Who could ask for more?

Was with MQ for over 7 years, and am not happy with the direction the company is heading. 

Yeah, I'll just get in line behind 10 former teammates that just got the ax, all the MDI'ers looking for a new gig, and locally, the 450 people whose plant just closed.  Once I get through that crowd, I can then compete with my current teammates who are also looking for a second job/replacement job because they are eyeying the open door too, in between competing with one another for work.

Once I claw my way through the desperate crowd of job seekers and into another job, I can wait a year or so, run across the same scenario at the next company, and start looking for work again when their work pool mysteriously dries up.

Or I could just blow my brains out and avoid repeating this loathesome, demoralizing cycle for the next 20 years until I'm retirement age.  Thanks for helping me ponder my options.

stopped our 401K, then stopped our direct deposit, then they lost all their big accounts and we all lost our jobs. 

I worked for them over a year ago.  Platform slow and cumbersome.  Micromanaged every aspect. I think they have gotten rid of some middle management, which could only be a good thing.  I have since worked for worse companies. Might be just what you are looking for, wasn't for me.  It is offshore owned, which I am finding is definately not a good thing for US workers.  Thinking I will stick to US owned companies. A world of difference how MT/ED are treated. 

A year ago, everything was wrong with Interpro - paychecks were severely docked, jobs missing..turned out that management was stealing the company blind - the HR director was the CEO's sister; the CEO's husband was in charge of finances and payroll and the managers for the individual teams were the CEO's best friends.  The company was THE WORST.  In the past year, they cleaned out and got rid of the bad management and theft.  That improved.  However, the system - Vianeta - is still of bad sound quality, hard to understand sometimes, slow and cumbersome as stated above.  The employees and current management are nothing but team players, honest, and available to help you. 

can anyone tell me anything good or bad about this company?  considering applying with them and would like a heads up about them. 

thanks in advance

Looking to get out of the Q and transcriptionmatchmaker.com has said that InterPro has everything I want/need out of an employer, and that the management has changed for the better in recent times.  I know the posts have all been resounding bad on them in the archives.  I am just wondering if anyone knows anything about them now and in the last 6 months.  Help me ease my mind a bit!!
