Haven't heard one of those in a long time !
Those were the happy days of MT'ing.
I heard this a long time ago, (couple of yrs) NM

Had the same happen here, heard the same thing, good references and good ....sm
job record will get you better $$$ if you are willing to promote yourself, search like crazy, talk to everyone, etc., but I have never been paid a cent more for CMT, what a waste, and all the years I paid my dues to AAMT, what a joke, they did NOTHING to better our field, just took the money for better conventions, as far as I can see.
Anyone tested and heard back from DTS America. How long was your wait? nm

Never heard anything good about them and I believe
they offshore.
Never heard anything good about OSI, don't know
anything about MDI but they have been mentioned a lot lately so lots in the archives. KS doesn't pay OT, not legal, but they don't pay. Company extremely disorganized. Lots of accounts are C-phone accounts so you need ULD, though they do have some accounts that use foot pedal. Lots of accounts are Meditech, which is really crappy and hard to make lines. They start everyone at 8 cpl and say in so many days you will have a review and may make 0.05 cpl more, but don't hold your breath. I was told I don't know how many times that I would get an increase, never did. I hated Webmedx, cried nearly every day I worked there. They have fixed some of the issues so things are probably better, but there are accounts that frequently run out of work and you may need several accounts to make your lines. Each account has their own account specifics, which can be a major PITA if you aren't one of those people who transition back and forth easily.
KS supposedly got new insurance that is more reasonable, I left before that happened so don't know much about it, but it was VERY expensive before. I think Webmedx has his premiums too, at least if you need coverage for more than yourself. I don't know about the other 2 companies.
Sorry I didn't rate, but not something you can really do unless you have worked for all 4.
I heard they were good
I have 2 friends who work at TNI. They have been there a long time and are happy.
I think it depends on who your supervisor is.
Never heard - and that's GOOD :-)
Most of the time it is NOT good to find your name in the archives on this board. It is the bad ones who get discussed over and over. You must be doing a good job :-) Your people seem content.
Yep, I heard they had a good...
reputation in the past, so thanks for updating :-).
Has anyone heard of LTS, Inc. - good, bad, ugly?
Has anyone heard or worked for LTS, Inc. - good, bad, ugly?
I have heard good things - sm
I even spoke to the owner on the phone - SUPER nice. I couldn't take the position right now due to personal reasons but would definitely go with them in the future if need be. A current employee likes it there that I spoke to.
wow, from a company I heard a lot of good from..sm
that's pretty junk. Sorry to hear that.
I heard same, which is shame, since they have some good

Never heard anything good about Focus
here and I am sure if there was anything good about it we would have heard someone say so here before now. The best thing any of us can do is take the negatives to heart and steer clear of them.
I heard good things about them, but I have to
I really do not like that Oak site, I have tested through that before and lots of hoops to jump through... I don't know if I have the time to take it, the company would have to be really really worth it for me to take the time to test with that software. Just my 2c.
As long as you don't need benefits, good place.

Seems like the good ones are staying a long time
I know many who have been there 2, 3, and some 4 years. Volumes are up right now, and we've had several new accounts go live in the last couple of months as well.
I have been with co for a long time. I have it pretty good, but new

My training was good. It was about an hour long and then I was sm
working. I love Keystrokes and I love the account I am on. Perhaps the account you were on had 2 ESL doctors come up first. The account I am on in first in, first out, so there are days that I get mostly ESLs and days that I get no ESLs.
Anyone ever start a job and no long afterwards realize it was not a good
fit and feel stupid quitting right away within a month or two.
Interesting and long, good money makers! nm

I love the K. Long reports, good lines.

i've heard nothing good about transolutions

I have heard only good things about MDI-FL and have talked to the sm
owners myself. They seem to be very nice people who care about their transcriptionists. They are MTs themselves, something that helps in this business.
I know they have grown this past year. They probably found the two or three MTs that move from company to company, always finding fault and always bashing the one they quit or were terminated from. It is just MDI-FL's turn to be bashed. I am sure that most people reading this board take it all with a grain of salt.
If you love the company you work for - stay with them. Obviously you found a great fit. I am fortunate enough to have MTs like love working for us (not saying who I am as I promised my staff I would stay away from here) and fortunate enough to have applicants that don't take the bashing on these boards as gospel.
I've heard good things about both...sm
but which one pays better? I'm curious to know too as I thought about applying for eMTS. Let us know. TIA
Pretty good from what I've heard...
A friend of mine works for them. Said they are strict on accuracy and line counts but are also somewhat flexible in schedule.
So good to know! I took the test but have not heard back
I don't think I will take the job, but do you know if they even hire ICs? Just so I know! TXs
heard MXS was good to work for but the ladies there
as told to me by a friend that used to work there.
I am no longer at MQ either. I applied at Gulf Coast Transcription, the lady that replied was really nice but I didn't want IC status. You might try them.
I've heard good things about MDI.
Sorry, I'm not part time so that's all I can offer. Felt I should write something as poster below didn't seem to realize this company board is for asking and discussing companies.
Heard good things about Landmark, so went sm
to their website. It states you must work both Saturday and Sunday. I might have read it wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's what it said.
I would love a M-F job and wouldn't mind working one weekend day, but not both.

From what I remember not very long. They are flexible, pay is decent, good dictators,
I have never had any problem with them.
What kind of changes? I am looking to apply there and have heard good things. I don't want
to go in blind, but all the postings are so vague. Can you give me an example so I can decide for myself?
I've always heard if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. n/m

Do you mean Axolotl? If so, I've heard many good things about them. nm

I have heard good things about New England in the past
don't know if that has changed. I would also throw in a vote for TransTech. After cycling through several other companies, I have finally found a home with Transtech and I am very happy there.
What a shame, I had always heard good things about QT Medical. (sm)
I hope they had been kind enough to forewarn their employees or at least provide severance pay. Good luck to all their people. Many people hiring hope you all find a good home quickly.
Anyone heard of the transcription company Medwest? Good or bad?
Any input would be appreciated.
ImedX. Any current information? Most of what I have heard is not good
but I would appreciate some more input.
may be good now, wait until they Global your account, too. I left there long ago, happy I did. nm

I have heard really bad things from QA about our overflow that goes to Amherst. Not good quality and
clients complaining because the MTs that are getting the work are making mistakes and not reading the client profile. Good way to lose accounts.
I've heard good and bad, just want facts from the horses mouth.
I have also heard great things about this company, only recently have I heard bad things. If they post on this message board they supposedly do not offshore work. The moderator would definitely have something to say about that, don't you think?
Does that make sense to you?
I have heard nothing but good things about Webmedx, but no personal experience NM

Not just this week, a long term problem. Nice people, good benefits, but

Good Company, but yes very strict supervisor or mine was anyway! As long as you meet the deadline
you are safe! They were strict when I was with them though

webmedix- I have 25 years exp., was offered low rate of pay. Heard it is a good company. nm

No problem :) No matter how long, it is too long for me - I am broke the day after payday. Kids wi
do that to you!
I know that they have worked very hard to make sure that checks are never late and I can say that in the past two years, I have had one problem (2 days late) and in the past 18 months, they have all been on payday and perfect.
I know that there are a lot of hard feelings in MT in general. I also know firsthand (and I am not mgmt) how hard KS has worked to get things going good.
I would not want to walk in an MTSO's shoes for any amount of money, but that's just me. I like to finish my work for the day, forget about work when not working and get paid on payday. I never want the other things that go with mgmt or owning a company of any kind :)
They definitely rip you off with your line count. Figured this out long ago and quit long ago

I've heard only positive things about them. So, I applied, but haven't heard a word. Maybe fl

What really sucks is that I looked for a LONG, long time -sm
before joining DRC - wanted a highly reputable, not-too-big co. that was LOCAL, and that treated its MTs humanely. I'm very happy with DRC & had planned to stay with them permanently.
