I LOVE DSG!! Been there almost 3 years. sm
The management staff is great, easy platform, pay is always on time, flexible schedule.
Yes they are still around - been there 3 years and LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
I also have 12 years in, and would love to get out.....
Would you mind emailing me and letting me in on where you went to.......it sounds like a much better, happier place. I can't see things at the Q getting any better....Thanks!
Been with MQ for 8 years and love it.

I have done ER for 2 1/2 years and LOVE it. sm
I work full time too, and we seldom run out of work. If we should, (and that is rare), almost everybody is cross trained in other work types. Some times it gets boring..how many ways can you pull out a splinter or diagnose chest pain? The hospital I work for is the largest hospital on the west side of Michigan. Every single ER doc uses the same basic template. Then we have canned text. We are also allowed to make as many Expanders and macros as we can use to achieve your production quota. We have our fair share of mushmouths and speed talkers, page turners and dead air. And of course, every summer the new crop of residents rotates through, along with the medical students, and other hangers-on. LOL. We are still paid by the hour, but that is going to be changing as we have started VR. The higher-ups just haven't figured out how to do it yet.
ER's are busy 24/7 and more so during holidays, so the work is always there. If you like a variety, and you will get it, you will like ED work. There will be days you just shake your head in amazement at some of the stuff you will see come through the ER.
I love it too. It will just be gone in a few years. It's just
nmmm
Been there 1-1/2 years - still love it! nm

I have been there for over 2 years and I love it...
great company to work for...You will not be disappointed :)
2 years at Medware - love it

Been there for 4 years and absolutely love it! sm
Good accounts, pay on time via direct deposit, higher pay than most, smaller company where people still know you by name and truly care. As for the platform, you type in Bayscribe and send your reports in live via the web site. Some accounts are converting to wav files, and some are still via C-phone and you have to pay your own long distance.
Of course, as with all companies, one man's paradise is another man's hell, so I am sure there are those who will disagree with me. If I can answer anymore questions, fee free to ask.
Good luck! 
I have worked there for about 2-1/2 years and love it. sm
I had a problem a few months ago waiting for an ID for a new account when I asked for a change. I am glad that they kept me on my original account during the wait because it took over 3 weeks. I was told that the hospitals can take a while but the wait was worth it as I am on the best radiology account I have ever been on. I have never run out of work and get paid both well and on time, so I am happy.
It is worth the wait.
Worked at MW for over 1.5 years and love it!
 Email me for more info. :)
I love working for them.. have been with them for YEARS. xx
xx
I have been there 3 years and only do rad. I was trained well and love my job. sm
The only complaint I have is that 2 accounts I was on went to Powerscribe. I was put on different accounts because I do not like to edit VR, so there was really not a problem. I get a lot of work and love my lead!
I have been at Keystrokes for 2 years and I love it...
I have never experienced or heard of anything such as the OP is claiming...all I know is that Keystrokes is a great place to work for and you were unhappy there let it go and move on...I truly hope you found a better fit for you...and to those that do not like working for Keystrokes, find another job...
I love Transcend, have been there for years...
started with MDI. The offshore component is mostly on Escription, and has never affected my workload.
Transcend is a good company; they treat me well and I make great money - I could care less if they offshore. Then again, I also have a Samsung TV, a German car and many things made in China!
Been at Keystrokes for 2-1/2 years and LOVE it!

I have also been at Keystrokes 2-1/2 years and love it...
Great company.
Ihave nearly 20 years' experience and love doing
Ops. All the other stuff is so boring to me. Not many days go by that I don't have to look something up. There is always a new piece of equipment, a new procedure, and when you get new doctors coming it they may been from a different part of the country and their terminology is different for the same procedure that the other doctors use. It is a constantly learning process. If you have good reference material and utilize the equipment manufacturer's websites that helps provided the dictation is clear enough that you can figure out which way to go with it. If you can do just one speciality, like doing GI procedures or orthopedic procedures it will give you lots of practice and it will be easier to become familiar with the terminology. If you can get samples of dictations that will help also. I would definitely take a chance on doing Ops. You might not be able to do them, but then you might surprise yourself. You always have the word boards to help when you really get stuck. I think it is a great opportunity for a newbie.
I LOVE working for TransTech. Been there almost three years and it's
the best MT job I have ever had. You will enjoy talking with Debbie, who does the hiring.
Softscript does. Been with them 2 years and love it. No flames please!

I have used it for the past 2 years through another company and love it!! nm

I have been with KS for a few years now and love it. They grow continuously without sm
losing accounts, so that is why they are always recruiting. The last information I saw was that they doubled in size between last year and this year and will do so again by this time next year.
I left MQ for KS 2 years ago and love it. They have a lot of rad accounts. sm
I make great money even though I took a report pay cut because there is always work!
Why not call them and ask? I've been with them for 2 years and love it. Best company
I have ever worked for. There is always plenty of work, pay is decent and on time, and best of all I am treated well. They offer all kinds of bonuses, continuing education pay, vacation pay, reasonable insurance through Aetna, life insurance. Am I getting rich off this? No. Am I paid reasonably well? Yes. Would I recommend Transtech? Absolutely!
I am in training - 27 years experience. Love the platform! nm
nm
I agree, i love those things too :)
x
Have to agree, love Transtech except ....
for tech people now. They are condescending and rude and half the time don't know what the problem is. I miss you-know-who!!!!!!!!
PS, still the best place to work.
I hope it's a rumor..I left MQ for KS 3 years ago..I finally found a place I love (sm)
so I hope the rumor is not true!
Have to agree with you on that! Love ES. Makes lots of $$$$$. nm

Totally agree,I love ExText
I have been working in ExText for months and love it. All of my lines are very accurate and I make an awesome line count every day working in it. I wouldn't want to work on any other platform!
Agree. I would love to make $20 an hour
nm
Haha yen, love your post and agree completely with what you say!
I agree. Hate Transcend but love Robert..nm
nm
Agree, very happy there. Love my flexibility. Like the old Signal! Awesome. nm

I agree with Denise...I have also only been at Keystrokes for a shor time but I love it...it already
beats the company I was with before, and I was with them for a year-and-a-half...I can see if someone wanted an opinion about a company and you had a bad experience to share, but not just to get on here and say how horrible a company is...move on and good luck....
LOL I totally agree! I love your cat versus hairball analogy! :-) nm

I agree. I am only part time so far, but I love it. The platform is easy, and sm
the people are great. I feel very fortunate to have stumbled onto them.
I agree 100% because I did all that for 5 years myself -
Made just under 70G a year, but nearly worked myself to death doing it. I now work no more than 7 hours a day for less money but am happier.
After many years, I really don't agree...sm
with that assessment. So much more goes into job satisfaction and productivity, and productivity means $$$. If you can find a company with good employee-MTSO-QA relationships, good feedback, a very MT-friendly platform which enables you daily to do more and more lines with less stress, you are more than just a number...and I know what many cynics are thinking, but back in the mid-90s, I worked for just such a national...I LOVED working for them; unfortunately, they decided to take all their MTs strictly in-house, and concentrated on the Coding/Medical Finance part of their Corporation. A company must give MTs an atmosphere where they can learn, grow, flourish, and at the end of the day, make it easier for them to make higher line counts and bonuses. Sadly, when I lost that company, I had to go back in-hospital for a decent job, a very good one. Right now, with a disabled child, I need to stay close to home. All the research is worth it, but isn't it a shame that the really good, MT-centered, productive companies are almost non-existent these days?
I agree...have been there for 2 years as well...
They are a great company...
I agree with you - I have been doing this 10 years and sm
I am actually kind of a slacker...I take breaks and make lunch for the kids, go check the mail, put a load of laundry in, stop for a game of XBox 360 with my son, and I still make about $80 for a part-time day. I do need to get more focused and could probably double what I make if I was really determined.
I agree with Patti; I did that for years.
As long as you are an employee, you just file your Schedule C, plus deductions. Worked well for me.
Agree, but over the past five or so years, new MTs sm
have been relying on Google and the Internet as their only references. We know how reliable the Internet is(n't)!! The US MTs need to step up to the plate, too!!
I agree - same account for 4 years.
I do have secondary accounts, though. This is a good thing so I never run out of work.
I agree. I have worked for them almost 2 years. sm
We had a slowdown when one account decided they wanted to leave. They learned a hard lesson and came back, and things have been smooth ever since. Even with the slow-down, it was just that.... slow.
The work is good. The pay is good. It's on time. They leave you alone and let you get your work done (for me, the no BS issue was a major factor). QA is always available. The owners are kind, and there is NO ASR/VR.
There are people here who like to trash the company, but I strongly suspect it is one, maybe two, people with a vendetta. Otherwise, it's a good place to work.
I agree with you. I have been in this business a lot of years and
it has never been this slow before. I do acute care work and I would think that there would still be more work than there is. Flu season is on its way so maybe things will pickup soon - I hope so anyway.
I have been there almost 2-1/2 years and I agree with KS Lead
I have never had any problems with line counts either...
agree, IMEs are great $$, easy reports, miss them, would love to find them
nm
I agree! Have been saying for years the sound quality is bad.
p
I agree 100%...I have been at Keystrokes for 2 years doing Ortho
and I love it...best company I have worked for...
