Very small company in Florida.
There are only a handfull of us working for this company and so when other MTs cherrypick, it really affects the rest of us. I am constantly stuck working all the difficult doctors and trying to get the reports from going out of TAT while other MTs cherrypick the good doctors, even though their reports are no where near TAT.
This just started recently so I don't know if it is someone they just hired or not, but I am tired of it already. Since this has started happening, I have seen my pay drop as I can't get the same lines I could before with a mix of doctors. Now I regularly transcribe for the same three docs that no one wants to do and I am losing about $4 an hour. I am so tempted to just start cherrypicking myself, but that is not in my nature. I play by the rules, and I am getting dinged for it. Since my account manager could care less, I am looking elsewhere, which will be hard as I really love this account and the flexibility it provides, but I can't afford the loss in pay.
I'm curious about this company as well? I haven't really heard much about it.

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.
Must be a small company
It is a small company. Sorry if you're not impressed with my work. It works for me. I could do over 1,000 if I wanted to, but this suits me. I have another part time job that supplies me with income also.
Not MDI-MD - they are a small company

small company
has anyone ever left a national company to work for a small company? just wondering if its a good choice to make.
A small company usually can't
afford to lose the people they have, so you might want to speak to your manager about this and see what, if anything, can be done. It can be as easy as removing the MT's ability to reject the jobs they don't want to do. Great way to kill morale.
Small company GREAT COMPANY
Axolotl is a WONDERFUL company with great benefits and competitive pay. We have maybe 100 MTs but are growing rapidly.
Yes, definitely. Is this company in Florida?

Same at small company in Ohio sm
I worked for. Owner did all the easy and templated work. I almost went broke working for them. Only paid 8 cpl and have awful accounts. You'd be lucky to get over $400 a week there. Expects people to work 15 to 18 hour days and both weekend days too.
Medtrans the best. Small company sm
but very professional, and pay is excellent & on time. Pay is by the minute or gross line - depends what account you are on.
Even if it is a legitimage company it is a small
company if they can't cover payroll. Your bank isn't going to wait for your mortgage payment until you get paid and I think the majority of us work for the money, not just to give us something to do with our spare time. Too big of a risk to take.
I work as an IC for a small company and
I have worked for nationals and always hated having hundreds of different doctors and all the different account specifics, and above all searching for the demographics that I didn't get paid for. Now I download from a FTP site, transcribe in Word and send it back within 24 to 48 hours (depending on the account). I currently have 3 different doctors that I am very comfortable with and can breeze through. I have no regrets about leaving the big nationals.
Big is Spheris, small is a company SM
with less than 10 accounts, mostly local to the company.
I also work as an IC for a small company
(without a contract too, so you are not alone, but working for me also). I just let my company know when I will be gone with plenty of notice (at least one month ahead of time), especially if I will be gone for an extended period such as a week or longer. Have never had any problems.
For a small company in NJ, not hiring right now though.

Not many posts cause small company
You didn't say if you interviewed for acute care or clinic. There is not much chatter on this board because Axolotl is a small company. About 20 to 25 acute care and 20 to 25 clinic MTs.
Your questions:
Platform: can be slow depending on your accounts
Incentives: none to speak of besides overtime
Benefits: comparable to good. Depends on what you need
Communication: Average
Flexibility: If you comit to working 7 am to 3 pm you better be there are 7 am. If you don't call in they might call you to find out where you are because they are so small and need everyone to be there when they say because of turn around time. No timeclock to speak of so you can work as long as you want to get in your 1200 lines per day if there is work. When there is no work you have to leave after your shift even if you have not gotten your minimum lines in.
ESL: If you are acute care you could get stuck on a couple of really nasty ESL accounts where you can go for several days getting mostly ESL and not enough others to average out the lines. So if you are not real strong and love to do ESL getting lines in may be a problem during an 8 hour shift even after several months.
Like any company everyone's experience is different. What is great for one may be a disaster for another. I have been with them less than 9 months and there seem to have been quite a few MTs whose names seem to suddenly disappear so it seems like Axolotl may not have been a good fit for those MTs.
If you have other specific questions, you can E-Mail me.
Good luck in whatever you decide. 
I'm trying to find out a company name. It is a small,
I think just an owner and IT person, company in Wyoming, I believe. I can't remember the name of the company. They offered me a position and I turned them down, but I need to make a list of all the companies I've turned down as many of them continue to contact me and I want to be able to say no right away instead of going through the interview again because I forgot. I know there is a company in Cody, WY, but I don't think that is them. They were extremely disorganized.
Anyone have a clue who is may be? I know I haven't given much info to work with.
Should I go from national to small company?
Hello. I am sure many have asked this same thing before, just looking for a rooting section to feel better about this. I currently work for a national. With many changes, not feeling like a person, production sinking, morale gone, on and on and on... I decided to seek PT position with a smaller company. So, I found a second company. They are small, but growing. The director is a former MT. They currently have about 100 MTs. The pay is very standard at 8 cents. Their platform is slowing me down a bit, but they say they are working on upgradiing it. Their communication and personal attention to me has been excellent. I have 1 dictator. I see what work is coming in and have 20 hours to get it done.
Is the small company too good to be true? Being burnt from national, I am finding it hard to grasp that this really could be this good. sure, the pay isn't as great..it is an IC position, rather than employee...but I am not stuck with God knows what work, changing all the time...and I am heard and appreciated.
Do I just bite the bullet and transition the small company into full-time and do the national PT? Any comments, suggestions, etc would be appreciated!
I agree on the small company.
I was my happiest when I was with a small company, but then they were acquired by a larger company and so I left. I guess that's the point I was trying to make. Working for a smaller American-owned MT company that doesn't overhire is a hard job to find simply because they don't overhire. The MTs at that company don't want to leave. The problem comes arises when a lot of larger companies pull the tactics mentioned before and then there are many, many MTs doing what you said...looking for another company. That doesn't leave many smaller companies to chose from because most aren't hiring. I think that's where the problem comes in with a lot of people being frustrated with going from company to company only to end up in the same boat a few years (or less) later. There definitely is a downward trend in this field. Some are fortunate to have the good jobs, but it's not the norm anymore like it used to be.
I work for a small company and
some of the clients have actually threatened to go with the larger companies that offshore to get cheaper rates. I've had to take a pay cut in order to keep the account from going to India. The clients will go where they get the better deal. Many of us will take a pay cut because of the competition regardless of how big the company is. I don't think anywhere is safe. You have to work harder to make up for the cpl loss.
Curious too about that company
I was contacted by them yesterday. I would love to hear from MTs who work there now. I heard there is a deposit that has to be paid? Is that true?
What company is this, just curious NM

No, my company's not in Florida..but I hope you get
d
A company in Florida. The bad news
died down and no posts for quite a while, so I thought it got better, but oh, was I wrong.
Is the same company that is in Clearwater, Florida
xxx or is it a different company?
Opinion: Small company vs. larger one?

I start tomorrow with a small company exactly as you
Hope it works out but I've had good success in the past from companies who don't advertise.
D&L site is medicalreport.com small company
pay is real low
Can you share what small company you found (sm)
that offers benefits (even if it is more costly). It seems that all I have talked to don't offer any and I can't afford to go without health insurance. Thank you so much in advance.
Try PMTKentucy for a small good company
They are small, but they are growing rapidly. They will start you as an IC, but if you are a good MT, you will be made and employee. They have posted several job openingings in the jobseeker section.
It wouldn't be a small company in SW GA would it? If it is, consider yourself lucky you got away

I work for a small company in Iowa
The woman that owns the company is crazy. She treats physical therapy like it's acute care. They are office visit notes and she acts like they are Op notes and the doctor is breathing down her back waiting for them to be typed. The physical therapist could care less ------- it's an exercise class lady - get over it. At 6 cpl she wants a miracle.
There is a company called
in Texas that I would strongly recommend staying away from. I worked for this company for a little over a month but the platform made it way to hard to get any reports in. The pay was good but without reports, no $$$. Anyway, when speaking with these people I was told that they would pay for the return of the equipment if the position did not work out. When I decided to leave, I called and was instructed on how to return the equipment (foot pedal). Once doing this, I received a bill from Fed-Ex as now they are not going to pay for it. When I talked to them in June, I was told to fax them the bill and they would take care of it. Today, I received another bill from Fed-Ex. I'm going to pay this bill but I just wanted to let you all know how shady this company is.
When they are trying to suck you in they act all "Christian like" but when things don't work out the horns come out. Be careful!
Anyone know of a company called
Just Your Type Transcription out of Illinois? Any opinions?
I called the company....sm
and the position has been filled. I had applied for it as well.
