They have a huge turnover in office as sm
well as MTs. Someone gets fired at least every 3 months. Big into power game playing. Do it this way or else. Yes, very disorganized and someone is talking behind your back all the time.
How would we know that they lost a huge account? sm
They never communicate with their MTs. 
They lost the huge TN disability sm

account to the Philippines.  Guess TN wanted cheap labor.  I won't be surprised if ALL of the accounts go there.


I am so glad I quit working there!!!


They lost a huge account in Alabama
to work it.  It was probably one of their biggest accounts and they didn't keep it long.  Beware.
It is not just a slow time....they lost a huge acct and moved many MTs to other accts.......
nm
I guess this explains part of the reason we keep running out of work. My office lost a lot of huge
accounts in the past year.
Diskriter offshores in a huge way, which means privacy is compromised and American jobs are lost

Stop the carnage and quit working for these companies!  Protect your own interests! 


 


Have any of you MDI employees lost your job or chose.. sm
to leave since they switched some accounts to VR?  I was thinking of applying but unsure now after reading about the VR switch on some accounts.  I wondered how many employees are affected by it and whether or not to consider applying as I am only interested in straight transcription and not VR. 
A high turnover rate means all the good MTs

leave and only MTs left at the company are probably the ones who had trouble getting the job they have let alone leaving to find a new one.  That's what a high turnover rate means.  Not to mention, why would anyone want to work for a company with a high turnover rate?  Something's wrong if people keep leaving.


It's called logic and deductive reasoning.  And some people in this neck of the cyber woods are sorely lacking in both.


High turnover rate with good reason; email for info.

USAMedTran Good or Bad....feeling lost
I need some information on this company.  I need to know if it is worth my time to apply with them.  I passed their test a few months ago and was offered a position with them.  I had already accepted a position with Amphion and so I turned it down.  I am now wondering if I made a mistake.  Amphion is turning out to be not what I thought it would be.  The workload has gone from overflowing to next to nothing.  Now I am getting emails about my production not being met.  Well when my primary account runs out of work in 4 hours and my secondary usually has next to nothing how am I suppose to make production?  Also I think the pay is really low.  I am frustrated and don't know where to go from here.
Maybe...maybe not...but they have sure lost A LOT of good MTs because of bad business practices

I think this could only be done with a huge client base, or a huge number of say only
s
that pays late constantly - lost many good MTs.
x x
And you are no longer a hiring manager and probably lost out on a LOT of good people
because of how you handled it. HMMMM??
Pay offered last year was 8 cpl/w on 1100 lpd. Some posters said they lost all their good accts
s
Sure, have lost patience, never lost sense of acting

Losing good employees

They are about to lose another one...I'm a long time employee and just can't take it anymore.  I work on multiple platforms and still have no work and the work I do have is 90% ESLs.  I went from about 20% to 30% ESLs to suddenly 80% to 90% ESLs.  You tell me these hospitals have no American doctors?  It must all be going to India but you tell me why the Indians are not doing the Indian doctors?  Wouldn't that be easier for them?  I have had no raise ever since I've been here.  Always told I'm at the top of the pay limit.  I'm giving my notice right after Thanksgiving.


Good company who employees nearly as many
a good company who always swore they would never offshore our work. Yup, good company. 1000 domestic MTs and 600 Indians.  They make MQ look loyal to the US!
Truth about unions - good for employees
My huband is a union member. Union membership is voluntary, with it you pay dues, in exchange your union officials bargain with the company for fair wages, benefits, and pensions. A union signs a contract and during that time, the employees have job security. If there is low work because the offshore companies messed up or shipments didn't come in, it is their union that pays them subpay to compensate the difference between average earnings and unemployment if he has a week off. Also, we pay nada for health insurance premiums, only $10 for office visit, and $5/$15 for Rx, 0 for dental 50% for orthodontics, and $20 for glasses. Without the union supporting these workers they would have no ground to stand on with regard to pay and benefits and working conditions. Thanks to the union, if my husband works Saturdays its time and a half, Sunday are double-time and heaven forbid a holiday he gets paid triple time. When he retires, we keep the benefits and a nice pension. Unions are not all about the mob - I have family in chicago and it is not as you describe it. Chicago is a high crime area and it's not the unions that are causing the problem, it is the quality of people who work in SOME of the factories which are lower paying and the socioeconomic drive that results in shady business and your so called mobter and gangster life.
Any American Transcription Solutions employees out there? Good or bad. nm

Zylo gives the good stuff to their favorites. New employees
get the leftover junk. Worked for them for 6 months recently, loved it at first except I wasn't getting enough work. 1000 lines one day, 200 the next, 75 the next. Kept asking for more work but never got it. Fortunately I didn't quit my job with Medquist and still had that for backup. Finally left last November.
QT lost jobs lost dreams
webmedx is hiring but they may already have enough people, I got a job there last week.  No matter what kind of bull you are hearing from management or otherwise is a lie.  The account is gone, please look for new jobs
SoftScript employees? Good money? Easy program? SM

I am interested in current information on Soft Script.  Is it possible to make good money ($40,000 year/full time). 


Is the programming easy? 


Sound quality good?  I was told it was good.


Thanks for all your help.  Please email me if you wish.  Thank you.


Would like to hear from recent WEBMEDX employees. Good/bad/ugly? (nm)
 
SoftScript employees? Good money? Easy program? SM
Although I realize this post is months after the original post, who in the world told you that MTs make $40,000 per year, especially at SoftScript? If you were talking to the owner (ewww!) or manager, they told you a bold-faced lie.

RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN......

Just curious
also seem to have turnover as well - nm
nm
Thanks! I wonder if the keep their MTs or have a big turnover. Seems
like people dont stay very long.
Heavy turnover
Big turnover on this account. They constantly advertise. Look elsewhere.
High turnover.......
I live in New Jersey and this is a not a good company to work for....read the old posts about this company in the Archives. Not a good company....
Very high turnover....
They always keep running the same ad every 3 weeks or so, so that should tell you something about them. I did not like testing for them at all, so I just gave up! Horrible dictators.
Is this a new account or just turnover etc?
?
Major turnover with new pay scale...
hmm...I wonder why!
They offshore. They lie. They have enormous turnover.

Mainly because people don't heed the warnings and work for them anyway and then end up quitting right away because the warnings were right.


They employ somewhere around 900 American MTs and around 3800 Indian MTs.  They had a big shake up back in may and fired a bunch of QA people and some management people as well.  My facts are straight as I got it straight from the horses' mouths.


Focus has a tremendous turnover. Their
management/tech support is largely Indian.  I would not put Focus on my list of companies to consider. 
Anyone currently working for DSG know if they have a large turnover of MTs there and how is it
to work there at the present time.  Just looking!
Very high turnover rate at this company (sm)
You have to ask yourself why do they lose so many employees. This is not an MT oriented company. I would say that they constantly advertise because they regularly lose MTs.
High turnover of MTs. Inconsistent workload. SM
I have a friend who works there. I've resisted the urge to join her because she hates it, but it pays well. The owner can't seem to manage workflow and threatens MTs with cutting them off if they don't work extra. Now that makes a lot of sense, doesn't it? I don't need the hassle. Proceed with caution.
Actually, a high turnover rate more likely means
that the GOOD MTs are staying put and the MTs who had to cheat on their test and/or lie during their interview, have no experience, or are just job hoppers tend to run off when they can't hack the accounts they have been assigned.
Reason for high turnover of MTs I guess

How do you know there is high turnover? The companies I have worked for get new accounts. sm
They hire because of having more work, not because their current MT's are leaving.

Some of the companies hire constantly because of turnover but most do because of growth.

The BS that MQ has done over the past few years has opened up a lot of new business for many good companies and it looks like that will continue for a while until CBay either runs it to the ground or converts all the accounts they possibly can.
High turnover rate? I don't think so. I have worked with the same group sm
for the past 2 years and the only change has been that the account got busier and 5 or 6 people were added. Keystrokes is a great company, and they do a lot for all of us.
Don't know about turnover but new clients coming on board - GREAT company

Frequent turnover, offshore big time. Read the archives, lots of info on them. nm
 
Oh for sure employees, but not too often for statutory employees. Sorry for confusion.

Attn: Any Transcend employees or former employees
I have been offered a job with Transcend, but I am not completely sure about it yet and I need some input from you guys.  I have read positives and negatives regarding this company but alot of it was pretty old information.  Can anyone give me some recent feedback on them?    Thanks very much!!!
One would think if 5K was so huge ...
One would not let it accumulate to that.  Only gamble with what you can afford to lose, and letting it get that far was a gamble.  Though, sorry, you only wanted to hear how horrible the MTSO is (which it is horrible) and everything through rose-colored glasses about your friend. 
I know about TT's huge hem/onc
account but isn't it totally VR?  In fact I thought they had 2 big hem/onc accounts and both had gone to VR?  Am I wrong about that?
huge thank you from me, Have done it
and forwarded to all I know. Have already heard back from one senator, and I was the 49th person from Texas to sign that petition. Thanks again. Have you put it on the politics board?
Not small, not huge. When I was there it had 350+ MTs.
x
I think there are a huge number
who lie about their qualifications and experience. The company I contract with has hired MTs who claim to have 10 years experience. Their final product looks like they are recent graduates of IHA who failed high school English.
