Has anyone ever left Keystrokes and gone back? I left a few months ago and realize that I made a

Not much left to sell since they lost big account.nm

I just left. Need Cobra info. Lost the mail and wonder...
I am flailing financially but have a wonderful new job where I am treated like a human being and compensated for my dedication.
I cannot tell you so you'd understand how much more happy I am now. But, I have no insurance and have a preexisting so I lost my mail and can't gather the strength to call and talk with the staff who suddenly sound so distant. Blah
I left them about 2 months ago. When I (sm)
started with them a year ago, things were great. Then they started lying about things such as pay and work, etc. They screwed me over big time. I had the best account there that I could get 300 lph on and they put me on one that I only got about 120 lph on. Seems a lot of companies do this. I lost all respect for A then.
I left MQ several months ago and
have worked for Landmark since that time. I have had no problems - always plenty of work, always paid on time. ExText is very easy and user friendly.
I left SPI 6 months ago
and I'm REALLY glad that I did! I had about 4 different managers before I left. I don't know where they all went, but they kept leaving! I did both typing and QA for CyMed, and I left in February, which is when all of the SPI changes started becoming more and more noticeable. I am now at Keystrokes and am so much happier being with a company that refuses to outsource, and one that pays for spaces unlike Cymed or SPI did!
I left about 7 months ago
I worked for Cymed for a year, and that was alright, although not exactly the best either. Then, SPi came along a little over a year ago and took over, and that is when things really started to go down hill. I started running out of work almost every single day and my account manager was always changing. They then set up these awful work pools where I would get all of the crap work (heavy ESLs and very short reports that yielded very little lines). I finally left in February and moved on to another company (one that does not outsource) and am so much happier. I bet SPi will fold very shortly if they keep all of their antics up. They have already lost a lot of good sized hospital accounts.
I left MQ a few months ago.
I left MQ a few months ago. I do have to say, MQ is a good company. They are flexible with hours and such. I do not regret leaving, though. I am now an IC and love it! Just make sure you leave on good terms in case you might change your mind and want to go back. They called me quite a few times asking me to return to work for them. Hope this helped.
Took them 2 months to know I left...they
even called me after 6 months asking me to work on my day off. Not very organized if ya know what I mean! I don't think I finished my 2 weeks though as I was taking a 2-week vacation before my new job started.
Left MQ, been at WMX about 3 months s/m
They count their lines the same way. The difference is, I'm typing about 3000 lines a week more now than when I was at MQ, and working less hours, because there is no more cesspool. I have one account, and no VR, and it is heaven! I have about 30% ESL, but it's not too bad, you get used to your docs and then they're not too hard. They have a great QA staff, also. Very helpful and positive feedback.
I have 12 hours to fit in my 7-8 hours of work (35 hours/week is full time at WMX). I have heard, however, that they are going to do away with their 12-hour window, unsure if this is true, you can ask a WMX recruiter. They usually require one weekend day, but this depends on the account you would be assigned to.
I do acute care only, and we have been swamped! I am on the Enterprise platform, which means I use their computer. I have heard this is a better side to be on for steady work flow. I have been assured that I can have another account, or however many I need, if my account runs out of work. Haven't seen anything like this yet, though. WMX also has an amazing incentive program, and it gets even better when your account has backlog. They sometimes run a special weekend incentive program, and I can make up to 3 cents above my normal pay, and also get paid OT.
And, the best part, the people at WMX are wonderful! They are just friendly, friendly, friendly, and very supportive and helpful! I have had an absolutely positive experience with them, am very happy with the whole package. No outsourcing, either.
Good luck to you!
I left after only a few months when
it became painfully obvious they 'assigned' work even though it was supposed to be 'pool' work. I would bust my a_ _ to work down to the 'good' dictator only to see the whole batch disappear. It happened several times so I asked her where the files were going and she acted like I was nuts.
I don't mind doing the ESL and mumblers but don't think it's fair to give all the easy work to 'favorites'. I have a low tolerance for lies and unfairness, so no, it was not a company for me. If you are a 'favorite', then you pretty much have it made. There can only be so many favorites though....someone has to do the crap transcription.
That's why I left there a few months ago sm
And speaking of line counts, when you worked on Mongoose did you ever notice that the estimated count always seemed to lose about half a line when it was finalized? Never could figure that out. Besides the tiered pay system, if you have their insurance you are also penalized by having to pay the extra they pay when you can actually get 10000 lines. I don't know what happened there because they were a great company when I started with them but just went completely down the tubes late last year.
I agree. I left after 3 months. nm
s
do you mind saying why you left after 4 months?
n
Exactly the same reasons I left too after only 3 months...NM

Over 1000?! I left there 18 months ago...
..and there were only 300 or so! They hired that many since then?
Ex Recruiter
I left about 3 months ago, but was never paid
shift differential, never paid OT.
I worked for them for 3 months and left. Always
of full time lines, so no sign on bonus. I had an 80% ESL account and I cared more about the quality, so I made less than 900 dollars a payperiod. Great quality, good for them and my conscience, but not enough money to live on, no sign on bonus and no benefits. I left for a company where I am already far exceeding 900 dollars a payperiod with no sweat. BTW: No incentive or good QA bonuses at Transcend, so that was no help. No differential either. They do pay overtime, but that is not so great when you are trying to make sure you understand multiple foreign accents. Good luck to you.
Shannon left months ago. Nmsg

Worked there for 2 yrs and left a couple months ago.
Couldn't take working with unqualified people any longer. A very unprofessional company.
I left due to no work for 2 months and they were STILL hiring
when that was going on. I would stay clear for a while unless you can survive off of 200 lines per day and want to work 24/7 and fight over the lines as they come in.
This could have been my post, but I was only there 3 months & left for same reasons. nm

Just left Precyse a couple months ago and it
was still that same way. Nothing has changed, but the work coming from India has improved. 
Left a couple of months ago and the plan will not
change until end of October. Do you want family or just employee and children? If I remember correctly - the employee plus child(ren) was running about 225+ a paycheck and family (employee + spouse and/or children) was running high 300s per paycheck.
I left SPi 8 months ago and still get crap from them in the mail
I recently got a huge packet from them that took up half of my mailbox. It was a bunch of forms they wanted me to fill out and send back to them (tax forms and other SPi stuff). I haven't even worked there since last February! They really are incompetent and have no idea who is still working there and who is not.
Congrats! I left MQ 3 months ago and it is hard to believe
the difference. I am not with KS, but it is nice to feel appreciated once again and to have only 1 account.
I left 6 months ago, but they weren't paying OT then, but
I worked plenty OT.
I left a few months ago, all my acounts went to India. SM
Try is and see for yourself. They are going VR for the rest. Good luck.I couldn't make a living there.
Left 3 months ago for lack of work
and haven't looked back. It is just the nature of the beast than when a network of accounts change to VR and MTs are doing more lpd now, there will be less work to spread around. There were already problems with not having enough work, so I did not wait for the transition to VR I had already moved down over the previous year from full time to part time because of lack of work. Glad I made the move because I am also the sole breadwinner for my household and can't afford to go without work.
I echo BTDT and left a few months ago. Don't bother. NM

Lots don't stay. I left six months after the 1/1/06 disaster
In fact, I was so fed up then, I left without having another job. I just jumped away. Glad I didn't stay for the most recent round of changes. Judging from the MQ forum, it doesn't appear to have gotten better at the Q.
I left a couple of months for the same thing. The prior
3 months I was lucky to get in 800 lines a day. I had a couple of days where I got maybe 4 reports. I would sit in front of my computer for 12 hours/day, checking every 5 minutes, and still couldn't get my lines with 3 different accounts.
They hire away ahead of time for new accounts and after training they have to do something with them until the account goes live so they put them on other accounts temporarily and then there isn't enough work for the regulars.
When I first started running out of work I watched the backlog report to see where an account might have a big backlog and there were 3 or 4 who were on OT most of the time, but when I asked to be put on one of those accounts I was told no. There were many days that it looked like half the accounts had a 0 backlog. Then they started hiring for 3-day weeks and 4-day weeks so there was no work on weekends to try to make up your lines/hours.
Sure, have lost patience, never lost sense of acting

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
TransTech and low/no work for months and months _ don't think there are continous holidays LOL
This HORRIBLE low/no work situation has been going on at TT for almost a year now. You can't convince me it is due to Memorial Day. Are holidays now assigned in this world to being daily.
That is an excuse these companies use in these no work situations, but it is due to their OVERHIRING. Holidays just come on a daily basis, but LOW WORK/NO WORK is happening and has happened going on a year now at TransTech. Always asking to flex into the middle of the night, EVERY weekend, etc.
The TT mgmt checks are NEVER affected, tho, so they can continue to HIRE EVERY MT who gives them a call, and create a NO WORK situation for all of us. The newbie MT's are cheering at first, but then realize that it hit them in the paycheck, too, and very soon it did!!!!!!!
It is as simple as filling out a form. I did it when I left an MTSO and when I left sm
a non-MT position at a company years ago.
What company? I did not know that any of them offer 401K anymore.
My company has been low on work for months and months..sm
Tired of getting the same ol' message that things will pick up. I remember the days of bonuses, making money and being able to pay my bills! I am also wondering what is going with these companies not having work. Is everybody sending work overseas?
to lost at sea
Please, please email me. If there has been a mistake, Lee certainly makes up for it. She takes care of people, but with everything going on, I can help.
Not sure about if they have lost a lot
of people or got a lot of accounts, but they do not pay for spaces (at least they did not a few years ago when I worked for them). Very rude QA at that time.
Lost
I was at a lost today on the call, but it was not far into the call before i knew what i was up before it was even said. I have been looking like mad for a new job today. I have loved my job at HIS and now i find myself scared and worried how I am going to support my 3 children and myself.
Most of the companies i have found only take those with 2 or 3 pluse years. I only have 1 year 3 months in wiht HIS.
I too have shead tears today and said a lot of prayers that i find something before the bottom of the basket falls out of me and my kids.
They lost me
And I tell others to save their money. Why should we support the AAMT when the AAMT does not support us? Let them get their money from India and the Philippines.
They lost me
With a little luck, this will be the death blow for AAMT just like it was for the employees at Heartland.
They only lost the
2 accounts but site 120 also had the urgent care clinic work at 121 and 131 that were associated with a part of site 120. Site 120, 121 and 131 had a LOT of work but now it's feast or famine.
there's no 153/154 either. That's 3 lost.
no msg
They lost everybody!
They did lose a TON of people, including almost everybody in management! Since the SPI takeover, they totally stopped caring about their employees and treated them all like second class citizens! I know that was my experience! I am so glad to be out of that place! I make a ton more money with my new company since I get paid for spaces now, which I did not get paid for at Cymed/SPI!
not really lost
They are owned and run by the Philippines, so they didn't lose anything really. Everything is run out of there now. Boy just try to find out who does what, nobody seems to know anything. It's just awful awful awful. Cymed was headquartered in TN, Spi bought, took over, moved the office, now some chick in Virginia answers the phone with a list of phone numbers but knows nothing or nobody. It's like this huge secret who does what now.
They Lost
DeVenture LOST the case.
I think everyone just was lost on the ...sm
fact that referring to an Asian descent person as Oriental was not PC. I have to admit I honestly didn't know that myself. Learn something new everyday.
That isn't why you lost your job...
No one cares about what is in the medical records right now. Type it and file it and the lawsuits will come down the road... probably by that time, the company will be out of business or in India or feel they won't have to face that.
Hey, aren't we supposed to have a push to reconcile our medical records? Everyone will have a set that they can take with them to each doctor? Gee, what do you think will happen when patients find out exactly what CRAP is in their records. Can you say L-A-W-S-U-I-T? Come on, all together now...
Lost my job to EMR
They kept saying that it wouldn't happen, that they would still need us, blah, blah, blah. Then about a month and a half ago I got called into the office. Myself and the other Transcriptionist were told that as of the end of August we would be without jobs. Now, if I want to get paid at all, starting Monday I have to go in-house through the end of August and work in the medical records department. I'm switching to general and legal transcription. As soon as I can find another full-time position, I'm quitting the MT business. Although I'm sure at one point that will go by the wayside too.
Don't think we lost any........
because of losing accounts. I believe the MTs on the accounts that were lost were just redistributed amongst other existing already low-volume accounts, which helps account for the NSA that we see so often. I think it is good that a company tries to keep employess on if their account goes away, but not at the expense of others who need to make a living as well.
