FutureNet is a GREAT company...sm
FutureNet is a great company! I have been with them coming up on 2 years now and they have been nothing less then exceptional to me! Sure there are going to be times when you are low on work - that is just part of this business - but it is very few and in between times with them. They have a very helpful and friendly staff, very good if you need time off, and everyone there is to help you. You have to work together to be successful and they do their part by far! They may be posting job ads because maybe they are having some people to give their notice or maybe they are coming up on some new accounts. I personally don't think it is any type of overhiring. They are a very wise company and I could not be happier!
Futurenet work
... don't know if this may be one thing that may be impacting Futurenet's volume, but I went for an interview with a company who contracts with Futurenet, and they are bringing their work back inhouse from Futurenet. I believe I heard that company will just license Futurenet's platform, but bring the transcription back inhouse.
FutureNet Low on Work
I also am very, very low on work with FutureNet and wonder if my main account is one that is phasing out FNTC. I know you cannot name the account but could you tell the city and state they are in????
Futurenet...where did the work go? sm
Anyone have any idea why the counts are so low at Futurenet this week? I haven't been able to get a single job since the weekend!!!
Is there work at FutureNet? sm
Earlier this year archives shows comments that work was low at FutureNet, I am wondering if that has changed (before I apply!)....anybody know?
FutureNet is still low on work...
I don't understand why these companies hire more people than they have work for. Seems to me that they lose a lot of good people that way. I've been with them under three months and I'm going to begin looking elsewhere. They put me on three accounts that chronically run out of work, yet they're begging for help on other accounts! What's wrong with them???
Futurenet work
No in my opinion not a lot of work anymore and later in the day and at night only. Also what they didn't say when they hired people (at least not me) is that it would be going to voice recognition in a month.
FUTURENET is the BEST place to work!
For real, FutureNet Technologies is the best place out there to work! I have tried two other places over the internet, and BY FAR, FutureNet is the best! They have a lot of work. Their pay is ALWAYS on time, EVERY TIME. They have production bonuses, easy format (VERY EASY) and they do not ask for IM, so that means they are not bugging you all day. They email you, or every now and then call you, when something is needed...and they send counts all throughout the day to let you know how much work is in the system. The people are GREAT, easy to get along with and very nice. They may be doing some hiring. If so, RUN to them! They are the absolute BEST!
How are things going with Futurenet? Is there still no work> sm
Futurenet work has slowed down majorly. Has anyone else's picked back up yet? I thought we had new accounts coming on? If so, are they are going to hire some people? Does anyone know what we can expect?
Have any of you noticed that Futurenet has an ad for MTs right now? And I have been without work fo
I was looking for some part-time work because my main job has had NO work hardly at all, not even to make $150 every two weeks and come to find out FUTURENET has an ad for transcriptionists! What is going on with that? How can they be hiring when there is no work now? Maybe that is the problem - they are overhiring so much. This is ridiculous! I am outta here. I have waited and waited and waited and waited for some work to come in - nada! Anyone else having the same problem with them? I am a very loyal, well-seasoned Transcriptionist and I have been giving them the benefit of the doubt, waiting for some work while me and my family are almost, literally, starving because of it. I feel like I have been robbed!
I know FutureNet running low on work but. (sm)
their ad says new accounts coming on in January, perhaps they were hiring on in anticipation so they were all trained.
Anyway, I am planning on applying and wanted to ask a couple of questions.
1. How long does it take for them to get back with you once you apply?
2. What kind of platform do they use?
3. Are they pretty easy with scheduling? Are you required to work a full weekend day each week?
4. If you don't have work during your scheduled time, do they require you to make up the time/lines?
I know some of these have been asked/answered in the past, looking for truly recent info from current employees if possible.
TIA
FutureNet lack of work
How about lately? Anyone else notice the lack of work and the hiring of new MT's? Also they do not treat their regulars with respect.
I am! FutureNet provides the MTs they want with plenty of work

Anyone hired by Futurenet to work on the new SC account? SM
I might apply, just wanted some info, thanks.
Many old YOGgers at FutureNet, but the work isn't steady. sm
When I was at MQ, they lost many YOG accounts, but I haven't been there in a couple of years, so I can't really speak to that.
Does anyone know if Futurenet hires part time weekend work? (nm)
I am wondering if employees with Futurenet have a hard time having adequate work flow..sm
Just started there not too long ago, but now finding out I am running out of work frequently. I have several accounts that I can work on, but all are empty most of the time. Have they overhired or is this the normal?
Has anyone recently left Futurenet Tech due to their lack of work over the past several weeks? nm

how do we work it? Easy answer - work for another company. That happened with the company
I was working for. I would wake up at 4 a.m. AND ON THE WEEKENDS TOO because they needed "coverage" supposedly and I would sit until 9:30 or noon without any work. Sorry, but my rent of $1450/month could not be paid with only $57/day. So I got another job and when I got the equipment and everything, then I quit for the other employer.
Must be a small company. I have never talked to the owner of the company I work for. sm
He wouldn't have time. Why would someone talk directly to the MTSO? Most do not know (or care) about the details just the big picture.
Let me know if you pursue this company. I would like to work for a MN company as an employee?
Let me know! Thanks!
Chasing work from company to company - Have any of you ever watched (sm)
5 year olds learning to play soccer? The ball is in play and no matter what the coahes say ALL the kids go running for the ball. Maybe we are like that, masses of us going from company to company in search of work. This company has a new account BOOM here we go. Now it is out. Let's go here.
Yep, I think it is a big game someone is playing with us. Not a particularly funny one either.
What is the best company to go to for IC that is a nice company to work for that has work for you
and also is interested if you want to work part time at some point.
Absolutely not! I work for the best MTSO. I am have been so blessed to work for the small company I
I will share this about the MTSO I work for. I called her late last Wednesday night after Church and told her I was compelled to help out with Hurricaine Katrina in some way and an opportunity arose for a small group from my Church to go to Louisianna this coming week. Would she be able to cover my work. She told me no problem without any hesitation and even donated money for the trip.
And I am sure there are plenty of good companies out there to work for. To compare us to migrant workers is just not right.
Like I said - it depends who you work for. I work for a hospital at home - not a company. nm

I used to work for a company who separated the MTs by work type daily. sm
regret ever leaving that company. we had a max of 4 MTs typing a large training hospital with clinics. i was assigned consults and discharges with consults being my priority. another MT had ops and admits, etc. it worked so much better. we were RARELY out of TAT and each of us were trained on other report types for backup in case someone need to take off. not to mention that we were easily able to learn the ESLs because we got them repeatively enough to learn them, set up templates, etc. much, much more productive for us as MTs, for the company as work flow, and i am sure for the dictator because they got someone who knew them and their dictations well enough to be accurate. i don't understand why large MTSOs cannot comprehend how much more beneficial that would be.
I actually left about a year ago and work for another company that's running out of work. Have to

I so wholeheartedly agree with you. Don't work for KS but work for SS - another company bashed
Works GREAT for me and I love SS. I never really care what the negatives are as I have found they are usually people that can't make their lines, don't work the hours they commit to or just overall do not care!
I work for an all-US company and refuse to work for one that offshores. Best of luck to you. nm

Why would you want to work for a company with no QA? Anyways the only company that comes to mind is
I worked for in the past which is Medquist NJ Radiology.
Work PT for a company and noticed something odd. When I work the day shift I get (sm)
actually fairly good dictators, a couple of toughies, but no more than one would expect. When I do the late afternoon/early evening shift it is like night and day. I get some really crummy dictators and tons of problem/miscoded reports.
They have said that there is no cherry picking able to be done with this program so I just have to wonder if the crappy dictators can't get to the dictate stations until after 4 p.m. or what?
Nuff said, back to work. Thanks for letting me air it out.
I work for a company in FL. I pull my work off their
system in FL, so they do not pay state taxes. I've been there 5 years and they have never paid state tax. Don't know my state tax code, but since they are in a different state can't see how it would apply anyway. The IRS hasn't complained. I increased DH state tax deduction to compensate instead of having to pay quarterly taxes.
I work for a company with lots of work,
I work a second/third shift position and I still run out of work. I asked for a secondary account probably 6 weeks ago and haven't received one yet.
You can call the MTSO or your supervisior, but they really don't care, the work is getting done and that is all that really matters.
I work for another company...
MQ had no problem with it when they hired me.
NEVER pay a company to work for them.
That is a scam.
There is a difference in renting equipment or putting up a deposit for equipment to be sent to you.
How do you have to pay to work for them?
the company I work for...
pays the same way. As long as you have direct deposit, it really isn't that bad. With my company the pay period ends the 15th and the last day of the month, and checks are either sent out or deposited on the 20th and 5th. The main difference is that you never have a chance for those 2 bonus pay months where you receive 3 paychecks instead of just 2.
I work for this company too and my DD have never been
late. I did receive my check in the mail today, the day after it was scheduled for DD, and it was mailed on 12/7, the day before DD is scheduled. A bit of an inconvenience, but a one time issue.
I think we work for the same company.
I was told it was not a sign on bonus, only for MTs in good standing with the company. The shortages in the paychecks are for the 30% deduction for headers and footers (that we do not type).
If you want to work for a company
than OSi is for you.
We know we work for the best company (sm)
so let's get together and share info! Email me if you want to be part of a mailing list. Please indicate your account(s).
I do not want to work for a company
the comapnies who do offshore so I will not waste my time testing.
Thanks
Would you work for a company
that made you sign an agreement not to mention the name anywhere on the internet, web forums and agreed not to endeavour to form or join a union?
Which company is the best to work for...
Looking for a good company, decent pay and no ESL's. Is there a company out there that anyone knows of???
I work for a company that does that...sm
I have worked for a company for a couple of years that pays like that (still there). The way they explained it when I started was that if you are an IC, they need to bill and get payment from your accounts (rather than you invoicing the company) and then after that 1st 30-day cycle, your first check is 2 weeks after that, so 6 weeks all together. confused anyone yet?? At first it was difficult waiting, but every 2 weeks after that like clockwork I get paid. The way I look at it is that if I ever leave them I still get paid for a month and a half.
Can you say which state this company is in??
The BEST company to work for???
Want input on the best company to work for out there.
Me, too. We must work for the same company!

What company did you work for?
I will know not to apply if I am looking for a job.
Why would anyone pay to work for a company?
I refuse to rent/buy their equipment to work for them. That's ridiculous. Good luck getting your deposit back - they usually find some excuse not to return the money to you.
Do you believe this - the company I work for
sent a mailnote to their transcriptionists stating that the office will be closed Thursday (Thanksgiving) and Friday, although there may be some overflow of work. Any help would be appreciated! They didn't even say Happy Thanksgiving. - Talk to the butt!!
