Thanks to all who replied to my post. nm

Did you read the post you replied to at all?
Because they can even manipulate their count program not to count certain letters, data tags, etc. Of course it will not jive with a word count in Word that will count it all and fairly. Make sense?
A post was made asking for opinions. I replied. sm
Part of the reason I replied was because I did go to management, several times in fact, and either there were no replies whatsoever or the replies were in disagreement with others in management, leaving me wondering which one was correct, or they were replies to simply pacify with no intention of correcting. I'm not trying to flame the company. If my experience seems like a flame, it is because there is a problem and exposing it is like exposing dirty laundry, I guess. It isn't meant to dissuade anyone or persuade any else for that matter. It is simply MY experience. Like I said before, I am not a disgruntled employee. I am merely experiencing some things in the company that differ from what others are going through and I am simply expressing my experiences on this forum because of what I stated before about intimidation coming from management on the internal forum.
You are absolutely right that there are many, many employees of Transcend that are extremely happy. I'm not among the ones who have flamed anyone for posting postive experiences. I have/had been one of those happy employees for years. There are also many that have been so fed up they have quit. There are also current employees who are in my situation as well, but are afraid to talk about it. At this point in time, I fall in the middle grouping. I'm not saying it's a bad company to work for. Again, I am merely expressing my experience, and has been said many, many times before, I'm quite confident that people on this board have the ability to know what is best for them in a company and aren't going to let the posting of a few happy cheerleaders or a few disgruntled ex-employees be the basis for the decision what company to choose or not to choose.
All I am saying is that if you are the poster who feels that he/she can work whenever simply because it is inconvenient to work the shift you had committed to, please don't assume that I hadn't talked to management about MY issues and try to point the finger and make accusations about MY motives. This board is about the pros and the cons. Unfortunately for me, my circumstance falls in the latter grouping and I shouldn't be lumped into a group of people flaming or bashing and told it is unfair for me to speak about my experience when I have tried all other internal avenues to no avail. If my experience seems like flaming the company, there would be no flame if there was no ember to fan, so I should have that accusation pointed at me simply because I discuss it?? That is what's not fair, and since I did say I didn't want to argue, I'm not going to keep the discussion going with banter that gets heated or flamed to the point the whole string gets deleted. Thanks for your input and have a nice day.
I replied, too
What difference would it make if it was an MTSO checking things out? I mean, if they have jobs, what the hey? Or am I missing something here?
Yep, I got it and replied.
Thanks.

Turned them down. :-)
NEVERMIND....i see it now.

Nevermind.... I went ahead and accepted a position with them yesterday...
I was just looking at their website when you replied to this, trying to (sm)
decide if I should call them about an ad they had online! Do they have employee status or is it all IC? Were they flexible with schedules? If you don't want to answer on here, feel free to e-mail me. I have about 6 companies I'm juggling and don't know which to choose. Thanks!
I replied to you via email nm

Loved The Way You Replied!
I know this is days after your discussion but just saw your post. Laughed out loud at the way you replied to the previous comment about better rate. Guess it was just one of those moments that I needed a good laugh.
I know they never replied to me when I E-mailed them..nm

Nevermind. Unless you have something to add to the archives I already know what I need to know.
Sorry for posting before I read the archives. But I am glad this board is here. Saves me a lot of research and grief.
nevermind - geez
I am so exhausted I was not thinking about how to go back and look at the older posts, duh!! I am getting ready to read right now and then I am really going to bed :D
Nevermind...already submitted. nm

nevermind, i found one i had. nm

Nevermind I see the comments below
Need to read before I post..OOPS morning coffee hasn't kicked in yet.
I replied to you once, sweetheart. You've got a
really bad attitude. My response wasn't a big huge long drawn out one-sided conversation either. It was plain and simple. If you can't find the email that they send to everyone, CALL THEM or email them. Who is supposed to help you here? Not that I CARE anyway. Just trying to help the helpless become more proactive in finding their own answers. How much time did you waste on the board being snotty and calling everyone else snotty when a simple little five minute phone call would have fixed all of your complaints? Try to help someone and get your nose bit off.
Ditto....I replied about them below too but just had to say I agree again! (nm)
...
I posted the one you replied to, and I didn't
say anything about Obama...?
Nevermind, got the answer from recruiter. Tx

Nevermind on Softscript.... too many bad things
more people have had problems than not... I would just skip that one and go for JLG... except for no DD (with JLG) which is a concern, but at least the job would be tolerable there...
Applied twice recently to Med-Tech and they never replied. They pay 6-9 cpl and want 150 lph. nm

I replied and was hired for one of those positions. It is internet. Not sure about all sm
but at least the one I am on is ExText.
Same thing here, got the email and replied, and now NO contact from them
x
I appreciate the input, but they haven't replied to my resume...sm
even though I have 9 years of MT experience, 4 of that with hem/onc. I just don't get why they can't send even a blanket email out...that's better than being totally ignored.
Nevermind, I figured it out mysefl. Thanks again for all the advice.

Nevermind, I found the info and who to contact. nm

New Pay Scale??
I am curious. Many MQ posters have heard about things like 'new pay scales', and I receive no communication whatsoever from MQ. Is it because I don't subscribe to their e-mail? Is this where this information comes from? I mean, they have my e-mail address, but I have never gotten any communication from anyone but an occasional proofer note.
Pay scale.
How much do you make an hour? I require $30 to $40 a hour.
If the pay scale for MT2 is .07 to .09 CPL, then
how do you know which you get, .07, .08, or .09? I currently make .08. If I get a decrease to .07, then, well..........
about their pay scale
Top pay with Trans Tech is 8.5 cpl.
Pay scale
They offer 6 cents per line. Way less than what I get for straight transcription, but I'm just curious as to how much more a straight voice Editor can really produce. If I thought it would be at least the same money and if I knew for sure they were a reputable company, I would do it, but I haven't been able to get much information.
The pay scale is different...sm
I worked for them for about three months but only 12 hours a week. Their payscale really doesn't work well unless you work full time. You couldn't ask for a nicer bunch of folks. You can e-mail me if you like.
pay scale
They may not have job listings for US MTs but they DID have a screening site where you could find out how much your MT skills would be worth with Acusis (in India)...36,000 rupees a year.
(Yes, I did the conversion. It's less than $9000 US.)
MQ pay scale
They run in tiers'' with Tier 3 being the highest topping out at 10 cents. There are very few making top money; most are long-time employees from other companies that were absorbed (bought up)by MQ. I have known several hired in the past couple of years and looks like 7 cents a line is the norm for new hires.
Raises? Certain criteria must be met. I wouldn't count on them.
First,you must not have more than 15% going to QA which will be even more difficult with the national pooling. This rule in itself pretty much kicks everyone out. That 15% doesn't allow for circumstances beyond your control,i.e,dictator effect, etc. They just look at the percentage submitted to QA, if it is more than that, no raise; the reasons for submission make NO difference. Second,you must have 98% accuracy which shouldn't be a problem if you are a good MT. Mainly the QA submission is what keeps everyone from getting raises because MQ doesn't subtract from the 15% the reports sent for unknown doctors not listed on the roster, dictator effect, etc.; you know, all the things that are beyond the MT's control. LASTLY, there is a freeze on all raises for now, so that in itself should be a big warning sign to you. If you do decide to hire on, get AS MUCH as you can walking through the door as I seriously doubt you will see any raises down the road.
Health insurance runs around $135 a month for the employee for best plan. The other plan is somewhat cheaper but I believe it is more of a ''health spending plan rather than insurance.
