I've seen postings about this company on this board before. Try doing an archive search.
If I remember correctly it's owned by a very nice lady but she's really a ditz so the company's very disorganized.
Double check the archives to make sure though.

how do u know if u haven't worked for them?
mq seems nice 2 on the surface.
just curious
I haven't worked there in awhile but sm
It was a definite trade-off. The pay was just not good at all. However, on the plus side, they were good to work with and they assigned accounts that weren't bad. Unfortunately, I couldn't stay at that $$ and had to move on. You will have to weigh how much $$ you need, but I was nowhere near 9 or 10 cpl with over 10 yrs experience.
I got one too and haven't worked for them for two years-thanks. lol nm

Haven't worked for those places but....
I can recommend MDI-MD and Landmark. MDI-MD is IC only; Landmark has employee and/or IC.
I'm not sure if either is hiring but they're definitely worth a shot.
Hope you find something else soon :-)
When I worked for JLG, it was pretty strict sm
about work schedules. I did not realized they kept track of my time via the ICQ messenger, which I kept turning off because of persistent, numerous, disruptive, and annoying messages from people on the Net I didn't know. I didn't realize this and had to make up for time they claimed I didn't work but actually did. Maybe it's better now.
Haven't worked for ExecuScribe but have been at TT for about two months now
TT is the best company I've worked for in my 18 years as an MT. See all the other postings below.
PS- I am not a plant or cheerleader. Just a happy employee.
Olive Oyl, I am pretty sure you worked there before, Why didn't you ask then? Why do you keep c
posing questions in an inflammatory manner about TransTech? If you want to go back, just call them and see if they will rehire you. If not, just leave well enough alone. Transtech has never been anything but fair to me and as the above posted said we are rewarded for doing good work. I don't know who told you that they never give raises but that simply isn't true. My experience has been that if I prove myself as a good, loyal and dedicated MT they have been fair with me. Either go back or go away.
If you have worked for us for two years and haven't gotten a raise or a bonus....
you need to contact Liz, as she states. We have many bonuses for weekends (when busy) and we also pay LD. If you are not getting long distance paid - speak to Liz. If you are a true employee, and not just getting on the bashing bandwagon, then Liz can help you.
Have worked for them 8 weeks, haven't received a check yet. -nm
I haven't worked there in close to a year now, but I was very happy while I was there. nm
:)
Sounds like me, I got it today and I haven't worked there since 2005
WEIRD!
TSSC is really good. I've worked for other nationals and haven't been let down by them. nm
Worked out to a pretty good hourly rate, just not the right company for me. nm

Worked there shortly. Pretty disorganized. Hard to understand the

I worked for a temp agency for 3 years..LOVED it. Just worked. No counts, no hassels, GREAT pay..
No benefits at the time. I even learned pathology while temping (8 months on that assigment). I loved the variety, the ability to say I'm not available such and such time. I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I didn't need benefits.
A company is ONLY supposed to verify that someone worked there, what dates they worked, whether PT o
and last date worked. It opens everyone up to a lawsuit if more is given, so most companies are told by their attorneys and business advisors to verify only.
No one has a right to a reference, only verification of employment.
It worked! Latest suggestion from DJ's email worked. nm

If I worked a longer day, I just put my regular shift, 3p-11p, or whatever. If I worked sm
an extra day, then I was told to fudge the hours around on the other days so it all came out to 40. I didn't really mind -- have learned not to expect overtime in this profession -- and I was happy to be able to work whenever I needed to get the lines I needed. However, them telling me directly to fudge on my time sheet would seem to be a violation of the wage and hour laws. I suppose it doesn't matter now if they do not even have enough work to make the minimum line count necessary. Several of the companies I thought were golden seem to have gotten a bit tarnished lately … sad.
I haven't, but have been looking too
I have also been trying to find something on the internet for these types of listings. There are millions of ads for MTs and QA specialists, but it is hard to find a good site for managment positions. I have had small success with Monster and Hot Jobs. If you do find any other good sites, will you please let us know too? Thank you and good luck with your search. 
Haven't you
experienced everyone Anna? Congratulations on the 2-month mark!
Sucking up on the boards for the boss to see maybe? You might just keep this job.
No, I haven't tried everyone,,,
and thank you for the congrats. I do hope you're doing better these days.
Come to think of it I haven't either
Line counts all in the fingers and the transmission. I better get a tuneup? Sounds like a bunch of hokus pokus to me.
They haven't, I got something
.
I haven't gotten one either yet.
Should be soon, though.
Hey, how come I haven't gotten any (sm)
samples for all the cesspool accounts I get? We get switched from account to account with no samples whatsoever having been provided.
If you can negotiate being assigned a limited number of accounts then your chances at success will be better.
of course you haven't, why would you
How nice of you to brag about it to others, though. Hope it makes you feel better about yourself.
No, I haven't, but...sm
...I've worked on an account that had TONS of abbreviations, a veterinarian account, so they were all new abbreviations, and it was a nightmare. It's so difficult to decipher exactly what letters they're saying, and if you're not familiar with the specialty it can be a nightmare. Of course, they do request chiro exp, so I guess this person would be familiar with the abbrev, but the abbrev part scares me away. Some doctors just seem to MAKE UP abbreviations. I'm just getting back into the game after some time off, so I'm SO dreading the application/testing aspect, which I know all to well can be sooooooo stressful. Good luck! :)
They haven't even been in biz for 7
years....but if you are enjoying your NO benefits, NO holiday pay, NO overtime pay, NO sick pay, on and on, then more to ya babe! Owners are on vacation all the time...just waiting to retire.
No I haven't...
because there is no need to. When a formula has worked for me for several years to the T and suddenly after a program upgrade it changes, I know it has changed. Of course they are not going to tell anyone it has changed. They might not even know themselves until somebody complains. Ooops, got a job, gotta go....
I haven't been to their website in a while, but they used
to advertise about how they had the best MTs in the industry. I worked as a QA and know for a fact that if they are breathing SS will hire them without or without experience, so that is an outright lie. At this point a warm body is about all they can get to work for them and even that might not be for long.
I haven't. In fact...
the thought never even occurred to me till the other day when my Editor told me another girl on the account almost went with them but chose not to. She's now in the same boat I'm in and regretting it, I'm sure. My editor knew people who worked in-house for this account but have since lost their jobs and she has no way of finding out where this account went. I definitely can't ask the owner of the company I'm with because emails go unanswered 99% of the time.
Well, I haven't seen ads like that for some time SM
so I can't help you with company names. The only thought I have is that your best bet would be a small local MTSO in your area.
I already do, and haven't even started yet
I had the most terrific interview! It sounds like a great place to work, I'm thinking it's a good place for me to be. She made me feel *appreciated* ...and after MQ, that's a very nice feeling. It also sounds like I can really just sit down and pound out the lines and make a lot of money, which is what I really want. But the appreciation is nice :) And Bayscribe looks like it's going to be a breeze, PLUS they converted over my PRD Expander file, so I don't have to start from scratch making my abbreviations all over again, terrific! 
Maybe you haven't been there long enough
I don't know what you consider great money during training but from what I understand, I would go broke if I had to work for the hourly rate. I make much more than that and have for quite some time with this company.
They aren't all bad. There are ups and downs, just like anywhere else but I'm satisfied.
haven't heard anything about them....
but I did a Google search and here is their website: www.archivus.net
No, I haven't had any QA problems at all
I am very happy there
I haven't gotten particularly bad dictation and
really good dictation. I did switch from not using the quickbar to using it and I'm not sure if that's when I noticed the change or not - but it makes sense that if you are using the quickbar you are not typing out as much so you should be making MORE, not less. Maybe I will go back to not using the quickbar and see if I make more again, but I don't really think that's it. Something's funky is all I know. If I could make $30 an hour on a consistent basis I would be happy, but I just can't seem to do it ever anymore.
I haven't been cheated
After working for two Major companies, I think Cymed is a great place to work. My adjustment to pay without spaces started before I worked for Cymed. I heard the hospitals won't pay for them. My line counts are always high and match my paycheck. Maybe I have more years experience or my word Expander is bigger than those of you who are unhappy. As far as I am concerned, I've been out there in the MT jungle and Cymed is the best by far!!
I haven't had enough work at MDI-MD lately.
I get up just to find there's no work. Then it will start coming in and I start working, only to run out. Hard to keep a rhythm going when you keep running out of work.
I haven't heard anything.
I am interested because I do medical billing as well. I am waiting to hear back to see if they hire people to do this from home.
I haven't left, but....sm
I'm seriously thinking about leaving. I've actually been testing and sending out resumes for the last week and a half. They must have way overhired. My pay is almost 1/4 of what it used to be. It's been horrible!!! 
haven't heard
I spoke with a recruiter there for a long time two weeks ago and was emailed benefit info etc. on the company by that recruiter and told I was going to hear from someone else in a couple of days. After that I found out from someone who works there that they received HUNDREDS of applications that weekend and that is why we have not heard back yet!
No I haven't heard anything :( SM
I did pass a test with Echo, though, and have decided to accept their offer. I'll be working part time for Echo right now, so if PMSI comes available, I could do both (I told them--PMSI--that I wanted to work part time).
I e-mailed A again, but still haven't heard back from her.
Just Me
No, I haven't heard from them either. NMd
d
I haven't heard of any (sm)
I work there too part time. I rarely see anything posted about them, good or bad. You can email me if you want, just state you're from here because I don't open up any email that I don't recognize someone or something about.
Is she still there? I haven't heard from her either. nm
nm
The reason I haven't already done that is.... (sm)
... that I don't think any of the potential employers in this area use MT Jobs or MT Stars to look for employees. My old employer had some secret way of finding new employees; never could figure out where. Yet I don't want to be knocking on doctors' office doors, either! I do have some docs I used to type for in a hospital setting, before I quit, that might be able to provide leads. Do you think a letter or call to them is proper? (Esp. since some work for the hosp. I now type for thru a service.) Don't want to step on toes, just want a low-volume, high-paying supplemental account so I don't starve to death for the sake of staying with a co. that offers health ins.
Haven't heard
anything about benefits changing. I am an Editor and we just got a simple email that we are going to hourly instead of salaried as of Feb 1. We used to get paid for down time but I think that's a thing of the past as well now. Nobody tells you much of anything.
I haven't received it. Please try again.
Goldbird
I haven't heard anything yet either.
The website says they are still working on scheduling and hope to be done this week, so maybe we'll hear something soon???
Haven't applied yet
But considering applying. Sounds like a good company so far. Thanks for the info. Let us know how you like it. Good luck!!
