guess everyone wanted the bonus. I find it sad that we'll get back logged because no one wants to work a regular schedule, yet come a holiday bonus, and everyone is obviously working. It's too bad we couldnt have that bonus rate as a standard. You'd see a lot more motivated people in this business. Most of us are burned out on pounding the keyboard all day and gain so little. I guess so much for a holiday bonus when there is no work. Kind of defeats the purpose..Oh well...I'm vented for today.

You're so silly. Your a team lead
and a front for an Indian business. You should be ashamed of yourself. Answer this -- their website gives a US address. You know where the work is coming from and managed - I don't have a problem with the Indian MTs and work -- it's the false advertisement. So, you're saying you actually condone and have no problem representing a piece of the sham?
Also, as a TL for this company, you are not portraying yourself in a leadership position -- you should be portraying yourself as an example and mentor. If the Indian angle doesn't put a sour note on this company, your posts and representation of them does. Good luck in your lovely position.
Too bad they got rid of Indian team leads. My US team lead is the worst.
As a former OSi team lead.....
I will say that the main reason I left the company is because I knew it was not right to ask people to work extra when they could not report it on their time sheets. And, yes, an account coordinator, has definitely recently asked people to work extra but not report it. This has been going on a long time. Time should be recorded as time actually working not what you put on a time sheet. That is ridiculous. The majority of my MT's did work extra but did they get paid overtime? No! This is SO not right!!!  ');>
she did it while a team lead too

What exactly is a Team Lead?

team lead
You have it all figured out. How can I even respond to such brilliance. Until you understand what my job entails and how much I'm paid, might be smarter just to stay quiet. You know about 1% of what I do for Cardioscribes.
Team Lead Help
So, if you don't mind me asking, to make sure I go the proper route, when you say team lead, are you referring to our STM? I have not been with the company very long and I am not familiar with the position of a team lead. I plan to take your advice. Please email me if you would rather communicate that way. Thank you.
Response to team lead
You say that you contact everyone who is assigned to you - maybe the short circuiting is happening in HR. Someone is offered a job and then the HR person doesn't forward appropriat paperwork or email to the necessary people.
That's bull...sorry..but I'm team lead and
spread it elsewhere
Your team lead/boss
In general, do your bosses respond to your e-mails with questions about your accounts, etc? My boss does not answer any e-mails. All of my e-mails have been our accounts and not just B.S.
I'm an OSi team lead but can't leave
but I can leave OSi and have received 2 job offers that I'm mulling over right now. I have to make a decision by tomorrow before the jobs are snapped up by someone else. They are running out of spots for new hires.
Have you asked your team lead or ROM? sm
When I started I did a few reports, they were checked and then I was opened up to the pool within the first day.
Um..as a team lead you are paid
hourly so of course the low amount of dictation available does not impact your bottom line.
Team Lead Help with Cherrypicking
If you are a team lead for the Web, can you tell us who else can we tell if our STM doesn't seem to want to do anything about it when you have complained? What other option do we have?
$14 hr for pt team lead rest production
and yes all we do is assign jobs when coordinator is off, easy money though
Apply for the new team lead job at Deventure

Hey KS Team Lead - I really think you should stop responding. You are making yourself
and your company look ridiculous and unprofessional to the extreme! If this is indicative of how KS does business, it's no wonder they are flat.
Keystrokes lead MTs and management team are great. I am sure I
will be flamed but I really like my lead and have never had anything but positive experiences with anyone in Keystrokes.
The nay-sayers will start their bashing now I am sure.
It is correct information, someone accidentally sent out an email from their Indian Team lead.

As a shift lead I made $15 an hour, but did QA plus lead duties...
I also worked terrible hours with no differential for them. I think it just matters on the company.
I work FT for KS and PT for another company too. My lead sm
knows this, as does the coordinator. It is OK.
You need to talk to your lead or to HR because there is work out there. sm
The account I have been on for 4 years has been slow but they rearranged us all so that everyone has enough work and 2 people were put on other accounts. They will work with you; you just need to talk to them.
If you are getting fussed qat by QA, perhaps there is work but there is something else going on. If you are not meeting 98% or better accuracy, they will cut your workload. Find out if that is the problem and maybe ask for a different account if the one you are on is too difficult. They have plenty, unlike most of the companies you read about here. Oh, and they have not cut our rates, lost accounts and have a few new ones. Glad I picked KS over WMX and plan on staying!
Advice: Go over your lead. Go to the next person up. There is work there. sm
I would call the office and talk to Karyn or Becky. Your lead might not be conveying the message for some reason. Sometimes they are too busy, sometimes they don't want to share someone. Just call. That's the only way to make it happen, and you will be glad you did!
I work here too but you must be on a different team. sm
I haven't had a full paycheck in 2 years, day shift is overstaffed and I don't have the option of working other hours; excuse me, flexing. BUT, I wouldn't work anywhere else. Good bennies unless you live in BFE like I do, then there are no providers on the insurance but that can be worked around; don't get sick. Seriously, it's a good place to work compared to what I read on this site. They provide equipment for free, PTO is a good rate as long as you're working, and they won't hassle you if you don't make the minimum lines because work's low.
I work for Shapin as lead QA and absolutely LOVE my job..sm
The owner is the most fair employer Ii have ever had!! She is kind to personal situations. She will help you out any way she can. I make really, really good money working for her. She is looking for more editors, as the company is growing a great deal. If you want more info, please feel free to contact me at MaryC_RI285@msn.com.
Try Keystrokes for ortho. Lots of work. The lead is the best I have ever had. sm
I have two doctors that I am responsible for and love having them assigned because I know what they are going to say before they say it. She is a stickler for reliability and quality, but if you are a good MT, you will love it!
opppss meant purple team, not red team.
Sorry, I meant the purple team.
Personally, I prefer to be left alone to work. I hear from my lead when I need her and sm
one or two other times a month, never excessive like a certain company that is rah-rah'd on here. No problem with communication in the two years I have been with them!
Gheesh! Some people have something to complain about no matter what, surprised if even a Keystroke's employee. It is easy to form an opinion when only a handful of employees post here.
I work for company that has team leaders and
they are the worst cherrypickers of the bunch, biggest whiners of all, and they get away with it because they tell the boss daily how wonderful she is.
Not for people on my team. Slow work for months. nm
:(
? for any lead at Keystrokes. What does a lead do?
Do they do QA, mentor, or ....?
You can e-mail me privately if you like.
Some of us choose neither to lead, nor be lead!
I guess I just don't have that 'pack mentality'.
If you're PT you're required to work
8 of your hours in one weekend day. There's no extra pay for it though.
Of course we're able to work - and do so every day.
.
Maybe they're the only ones who will work for
$.06-.08 cpl that I see being offered. Those of us with experience and excellent QA scores would never sell ourselves for that little. FWIW, I've had to correct QA on more than one occasion.
If you're looking to work right away...sm
I tested for Archivus at least a month ago. I got a response that said I did really well and that they were forwarding it on to HR. That was the last I heard. I had seen posts before that they didn't move very fast, but I had no idea it was quite this slow. Can't say much about the company, and not sure it's worth the wait, but I have moved on and gotten other employment.
You're right! And yes I do sit with no work too! nm
nm
Just wondering what they're like to work for.
Have you worked for them?
Can't work when you're scheduled
They have plenty of work but can't get into their system. They either have too many working or not enough.
You're too nice. I was going to tell her to go to work somewhere else - LOL
nm
TT does not audit any work once you're off QA
nm
We're not hiring because work is low. Nothing to do
with what goes to Precyse International.
That's because you're an IC. For employees, NOT flexible. And no work. nm
no msg
Not a single DIME. We work for them, they're -
And $300 for a license fee? How do you spell S-C-A-M? My current company uploaded the necessary software from their computers to mine for FREE.
If that charge wasn't in the contract, talk to an attorney about it. I'd be willing to bet that what they did isn't legal.
Gad - they already gyp us in pay, and now they're 'double-dipping' by gypping us when we sign up? Absolutely incredible.
Been working there 2 days and they're already out of work. nm
If you're making yourself sick over no work
why not get another job instead of complaining about no work all the time? No job is worth getting stressed and sick over it.
Don't forget, TT is not the only company that has low/no work. Haven't you read the other posts on the other companies or do you just concentrate on putting TT down all the time?
Find another job, leave TT if it makes you so sick.
I also work for a company in Florida and we're running
low on work, just within the past 10 days. I know it's due to the hurricane though. My main account was in New Orleans and just isn't dictating and won't be for a while, I guess. They didn't dictate each day but when they did send work about 3 times a week, I could work for 2 straight days w/o running out of their work. I type a lot of lines each day and for me and the others on that account, we are now on our secondary and third accounts which takes takes work away from others.
Forget it. We're constantly running out of work now. sm
Some accounts have work, many really slim.
Old posts say they're nasty and run out of work often. And they don't want you earning too muc

There's lots of work and we're asked to help out. No big whoop. nm
xx
Heck no. You're expected to work the holidays, even the big ones! nm
