that it was a husband/wife operation - that the wife was super nice and very easy to work for - no comment positive or negative on the husband that I can recall - that they usually always got paid on time but there was that little bit about being paid when client paid - which is a little scary - I'm of the firm belief that a company - large or small - should have enough cash flow to pay their people - that is running a little too close to the edge for me - but if it is a good company and great platform, good docs - I might try them someday.

Heck, no, lol. Didja read my posts. Taken 2 year to
how I actually DO my work. Just cause this is my fit doesnt mean it would fit you. Jobs are not one size fits all. And anyway, personally I think there are already too many on this acct. But then, dont all of us feel that way about our accts, lol.
old posts from last year...
are not to pleasing, though. Can anyone verify the pay, management, etc?
s/b...read these posts.
I did not read all the posts but...
11 cpl is still available in some areas if you are working independently...straight for the doctor...especially out west, but then you have to pick up work,deliver, etc., or work 'in house'. My relative in Washington State was getting 14cpl !!! Then again, she was young, blond, and beautiful! Might have gotten a higher cpl just for that!!! hey! facts of life.
read the posts further down re DRC
This makes me sad. They always stayed under the radar, had stable crew, never a bad post. Hope it is a temporary rough patch. I always thought if the recruiter you talked with had been there for years (versus 3 or 4 days like most) it was a sign of a good company.
You just don't get it. Read posts above and below.
Do you think the T-shirts from China are of better quality than US-made shirts? You just don't understand...
You MUST read TTS posts below under

SHE'S RIGHT - ONLY READ POSTS THAT ARE USEFUL TO YOU
You do not have time to filter through the rest of the garbage. If someone's post is not useful and contributing, then ignore it. Don't even respond. This interview alone may not make a difference, but when you add it to the next one, to the complaint letters, etc. there is a combined effort that can make a difference because of course you want it to go beyond one letter, one interview, one complaint, one industry. Trickle up so to speak.
I have not read your other posts sm
nor will I waste my time. I am quite offended by the comment of being an MT is not that hard or special. Its comments like that which have put this profession down where it is.
Obviously you are not a professional MT or you wouldn't even think that much less say it.
Those of us who have been in this business any length of time have been through it all. It is a difficult profession. The knowledge we must have to turn out a perfect medical/legal report is unreal. The doctors who dictate the stuff could not put together a report as we have.
Over the last few years with VR coming along and everybody and his brother and sister wanting to be an MT, the quality has gone to pot and it seems that it is an accepted fact which is very sad.
BTW, yes I am one of those MTs who go to the doctors office and talk in medical terms but I dont' tell them I am an MT because they usually ask what I do for a living. You know what? Being able to understand and communicate with these doctors has saved my life in the past. How about you? If you are an MT, then I dare say with your attitude, you don't have a whole lot of pride in what you do and consider this to be nothing more than a typist job!
plenty of posts from this year.sm
yes, run out of work sometimes, but mostly have more than enough. Very flexible. Pay always on time. MTs treated just fine.
This is THE BEST post I have read here all year sm
BRAVO! I could not have said it better myself.
YES you REAP what you SOW!!!!! YOU ARE RIGHT ON THE MONEY.
I am saving this...
The details have been given already. Read the posts
You want more precise specifics, leave an email address. I'm not putting my head on the block with specifics on a public board.
Yes, I've read several posts about SS
and will beware. Thanks. I've learned a lot just by reading all the posts here.
Do we have to go through THIS again?? Read past posts! .....nm

Did you not read all the posts about no work, that if
you had bills to pay this wasn't the job you would want?
I read below posts and don't see whether they require ULD!
TIA
If you are not wanting to read the posts, don't. (SM)
There is no need to harass posters just because you aren't agreeable to what they post.

Please, please, please....read past posts.
They should give you enough warning.
Read all posts in this thread...
I have already called the management company who manages this building. They have no knowledge of a JAX Transcription who currently occupies or who will be occupying.
I need the suite number in order to check it out. There are several businesses in that office building. The rent in that building is very high...doubtful that a new company would start out in that building because of this.
If I have the suite number, I can go and see who actually occupies the suite. BUT, according to the management company, there is no such company in their building. This is the same building that Transcend is in. I have called Transcend and they have never heard of this Company. If you call the phone number that is provided in the posting by this company, you will get a regular answering machine. I think this is totally bogus.
Have you read the posts on the MQ board?? You might
s
I have read all of the recent posts that came up
when I searched, was wanting more information as it did not answer all the questions I had, that is why I was asking someone to email if they could give me more specifics. Thanks.
I've read the old posts
before I accepted a position with them and I am glad I ignored them. I find my line rate to be very fair compared to what I have seen advertised for other companies, no it isn't the 14 cpl that I used to get on my own but who would expect that now anyway :). I have never had any problems with them. Pay has always been on time, the QA and management are always quick to answer any questions I have and they leave you alone during the day. IM is only used for quick problems and I can count on 1 hand how many times they have IM'd me, other than my first 2 days to see how I was doing and if I needed anything. To each their own though, everyone will not be pleased with the same companies.
Do you read posts before responding?
sd
for the last time, if you read the posts and
had your listening ears on; there was NO NEED FOR ANYONE TO REPLY.
No, not at all. I did not even read the Grinch's posts
It was my own griping that got to myself. Note: Post. Sometimes a person does not realize how much something bothers them until they put it in writing and there is the first step toward working toward a solution.
I can say, however, Grinchy bully did teach me 1 thing: Poverty of material items, even food pale in comparison to poverty of the soul.
Read all the recent posts about TT and KS but..
if some of those who work at these companies could email me I would appreciate it. Looking at possibly making a change soon and just wanting to ask some specific questions and chat about your experiences with them. Thanks! 
If you read the posts in the archives you
will run as fast as you can. They are not are reputable company and I'm not even sure they are a transcription company at all, but a front just to rob you blind. We call them TransScam.
There are multiple unresolved complaints with the BBB.
I know there are other posts, I've read them...sm
I'm strictly looking for people with good experiences with DSG, not problems with them. I know there are some MTs who work there who are happy, a friend of mine knows someone who loves this company, so it can't be all bad. Those are the people I'm asking to hear from. Thanks anyway:)
if you ever read the posts over on the MQ board sm
lots of those folks didn't believe what they were told either. It just took a few years to really hit them. Now they are all screaming.
The poster has a right to post what she did. The other posters also have a right to post the positive posts they have. I am glad they did post. I just wish I had known all this before I went to work for LM, I would have weighed all this out and been more careful as far as looking for signs that I was not going to get paid, i.e., I wouldn't have done as much work the first pay period until I saw that I did get paid on time.
You do not read posts correctly
I said I was starting work around 12 and was late. No one contacted me about my not being signed in. I never sent an email and did not say I did. Maybe that is why you don’t work for them anymore, reading something into things not there.
if you would read the posts correctly...sm
the *broom closet* statement was posted in the one above mine. I was just responding to hers, and I was trying to be funny about the mailorder bride thing. apparently you don't have a sense of humor either, on top of being rude.
Might have to use THEIR puter, 1200 lpd. Posts from last year say pay is very low. nm
s
See the string of posts below. Been there almost a year and really love it.
They are hiring like crazy now because they have several new accounts coming on, so I would go ahead and apply. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I can only find negative posts about them from last year. nm

Maybe you should go back and read some of the
.
Read closely and notice the year, hello!
The transcription business has taken a nose dive from what we used to make to now, look at the year I made this amount. Much happier now with VR because now I have made enough in the past to have a really good social security check coming in this year. I work part time, get retirement and SS and all those combined makes for an excellent income. Very happy now, thanks.
Posts about them almost daily. Read through past
posts. They offshore. Communication horrible.
Scroll down and read the numerous posts over the
last week or so. Also dozens of posts in the archives.
well I've read all your posts and responses and
no one has been ugly or attacked you at all
Folks really need to read the posts correctly....
Guess some are coming out from underneath that rock again. I asked others if they had to work for Christmas. Please get things right. I work the hours I want and AM NOT WORKING CHRISTMAS by choice. Hello... do you comprehend what you read???
Just read my other posts, aint gonna do that
I am in my golden years and that is what they should be. I could retire now if need be but I choose to work on because that is just me. I would NEVER work for a place that gets on my nerves like the ones who work for MQ. What is the purpose? The posts seem to be very unhappy with the lack of pay, the hard platforms, the cesspools- why would you stay at a place like that? I hired on a place about a couple of years ago - the platform was horrible- just how long did I stay after training? Oh, about a month and saw I was getting nowhere. I love my job, love the pay (for me) and have no problems. Hopefully the VR can get straightened out as it is sorta quirky just now.
Read the archives. Many posts, none good. nm
Just read the posts on this board from SS Management
It's obvious NOTHING HAS CHANGED AT ALL! Rude, stupid people running this company. That's why they have such a high turnover. They can't keep anyone! Hello! I mean, look, this is a good example of how dense the mgt of SS is: They post awful, rude, childish CRAP on this board and then try to tell you, oh, things have changed, it's not like that anymore. Yeah, right...
I have read lots of posts here and yours, without a doubt,
seems to me to be one of the worst I have seen. You have just told another human being they have nothing of importance to offer to anyone. I saw this and I hope you feel better by posting because I think by far it is the worst as far as putting someone down. For the 1 this was intended for, I hope you take it with a grain of salt and do not stake your life on a statement like this. I would, as my mother used to say, consider the source.
See my post above...I love to read posts like yours!
I'm ecstatic to be on board with Transtech and reading posts such as yours from long-term TT'ers makes me smile that I'm part of the team now as well.
I wish people read these posts correctly.
I am amazed that people here do not read the postings correctly and assume and go on and on about something that was not said in the first place. NEVER was the person posting about her father dying told to suck it up, NEVER. Arent we all transcriptionists and we have to listen and transcribe correctly what is heard? I am totally amazed myself that this just went on and on and it was NEVER said to the person whose father died.
If others read my posts as insulting that shows their
I post what I see as proactive, get her done, dont be a victim encouragment. Strongly put, maybe. But I feel passionatly about this issue and hate to see women letting themselves be vicitms. Engaging in the poor you, you been treated bad, it is so sad, does nothing to encourage them to drag themselves out of the mire and take charge of their lives.
Go back and read her post!
I'm not real sure what else there is to let people in on.
mtroadie - back up and read what I said...sm
That was directed only to you because of your attitude. Try to relax a little :)
I just went back and read that other post
Sadly, those posters are 100% correct. What they describe is the treatment I am getting. I am disheartened. I am looking for another pasture too. They are a terribly selfish company, it is just not right what they do to the MTs who work for them.
This is my opinion based on my experience. I can relate to what others say about SGS.
