They weren't rude with me, but a little disorganized and
not looking out for my best interests, but the interests of their client, which I guess is the way it should be since the client is paying for their services. As far as I know there are 2 women that run this company, I have not talked with the owner and maybe she was the one rude, but the woman I dealt with was not rude, just a little dingy and maybe not 100% truthful about the company that she was recommending. All TM did though was screen me and then I still had to go through the testing/interview process with the company. I had had contact with the referred company previously and had even been offered a position with them, which I turned down. The pay rate offered to me by TM and the pay rate offered to me by the company were the same. I declined referral to the company, being that I had already declined an offer from them and I never heard from TM again.
He was extremely rude to me when he was at JLG. nm

They told me last week they weren't hiring
true or false? This was e-mail from Carlotta.
Are you sure those posts weren't by people who had applied
and couldn't hack a little competition?
I worked for SS and some people were very RUDE and I am talking about the editing people in some
instances. It ALL depends on the person, as it does with any company. They paid on time and the lady over me was very nice, but boy the person in QA was mean to EVERYONE!! Never seen anything like it before.
They are extremely caring people.
I agree they are disorganized at this time. I almost left because of that. But I decided to stay because they personally care about the MTs they hire. I have not been there long, and I have worked but run out of work mostly. However, they check in on me very often, not to bug me but to make sure all is well. They have said more than 10 times how much I am worth to them, and I believe them. Only 1 other company I have ever worked with has ever been so kind to me. And so, I believe once this huge growth spurt is over and checks and balances are in place which they are working on right now and fixing, everyone working there or who is chosen to work there is very lucky. I decided to hang in and I do not believe I am wrong. Rather be with people who run a company and who consider me a person, than a number and a machine (I have been considered a transcribing robot more than once in my career). Do e mail or call and yes, Becky is FANTASTIC. Good luck to you and to this wonderful company which is definitely worth giving a chance.
Very happy with PS. Extremely nice people. sm
Their platform is fully over internet. It has a few bugs, but they are working these out all the time. These are just plain nice people running that place. I really have enjoyed them and am so happy to have shed the stress of the uncertainty with MedQuist. Proscript does not offshore, either.
The big thing I like about Proscript is that they all work together pleasantly. With MQ, we are left out there alone without the tools to do a good job. With Proscript I actually feel I am part of an organization that is genuinely dedicated to doing a good job - and provides the tools and the feedback to do that. I like the QA people, too. They provide good feedback done in a diplomatic way - and they know we are all just human, which helps.
I find it extremely odd how people from the same office seem to have such different stories. How do
you explain that. I hear many people complaining about work at MQ and Buffalo and having many different accounts so I do think you are damage control. Sorry.
I have found this time of year to be extremely busy. People
are scheduling elective procedures while they have a long weekend off and don't have to worry about missing work, plus docs do their best to get everyone home for Thanksgiving and I have DS galore. I do think around Christmas it slows down, but I also think there are lots of MTs taking time off during this time frame so you would think the work would balance out - less work, but less MTs, so still a fair amount of work.
It has been slow for me since at least August, so it isn't just the holidays.
Do you work in-house here? I applied last August & was told in-house only and they weren't

some people can't help but be rude..
I don't really appreciate being described as promoting hocus pocus...I was just describing - very poorly I know - what happens to me and I know alot of others who use dictaphone...that the computer you are typing on can sometimes be overwhelmed by dictaphone and vpn and it will intermittently slow down - and you will experience a lag in your typing - which was what I was trying to describe...maybe these are just older computers I don't know but you seem to have a real axe to grind..I was simply conveying my experience...maybe you need to get a life, or learn to handle your anger a little better, or better yet get back to work...this is my day off what's your excuse? I apologize I did not describe this adequately, but just because you haven't encountered something doesn't mean it doesn't exist..
No, not rude, some people will only or can only do ERs. I know of some that sm
don't want to do operative reports and such. I can see where they might be intimidating for a new transcriptionist. I was not trying nor was that a rude statement. Sorry you took it that way.
Rude people but at least Talon is gone. nm
Look above, I corrected myself, how rude people are here.nm
nm
Also agree, but I think the rude QA people mentioned are gone. nm

Well, boo frickety hoo! So you encountered some rude people...
this is business baby, it's not your mama's house or church. Suck it up and do your job. Not everyone is nice. Not everyone wakes up in the morning and sings with the birds and whistles while they work.
I wasn't rude. All I said was that if I was trying to profit from recruiting people, I would
have left contact information. I didn't get called out and was never rude. How is stating FACTS rude? I'm also not offended because your logic makes no sense to me. I speak the truth. But it doesn't matter. If we have anything negative or positive to say about ANY company whatsoever, we're either recruiters or disgruntled ex-employees. I didn't get called out because there was nothing to call out on. Please, take your senseless accusations elsewhere. The board administrators know exactly who I am, so they can back me up when I say that I'm not a recruiter. I'm (GASP!) a happy employee FINALLY after ages of searching for the right company!!!!
Unorganized, feast or famine work, rude people, AND
Their new accounts are unpleasant to work on to say the least. They are no different than a lot of the other companies now.
DSG - Really rude group of people, especially the acute care side.
Got tired of their snarky remarks and moved on. Make 25% more where I am now doing easier QA and really nice group of people. Good luck to you!
DSG - Rude people, ran out of work, shuffled around on multiple accounts!

true about the people being rude, not to mention, don't call you back. nm

The rude rude rude post is TRUE

They told us in the Monday Morning Matters, they are already starting to train people...nm

They pay 0.015 cpl for QA work! Extremely, extremely low, low, low. nm

My only contact with them was rude. The front office person or whomever schedules interviews is rude
This was about a year ago but I set up an interview and either I was supposed to call them or they were to call me at a certain time but I totally spaced off the time change. The lady went off on me and told me that they had no interest in me because I couldn't call on time etc. Rude. There is no way I would ever work for someone like that.
Just be rude..out and out rude so they have just cause to "fire" you.. haha..What a bunch of i
Who would want to work for incompetent people like that. Time to change your phone numbers. They are like bad stalkers.
Rude answer to a rude post. nm

3 words, rude, rude, rude....sm
the owner sends out UGLY and NASTY emails to the MTs. The communication is just a disorganized mess and they hire you as an IC, but pretty much treats you like an employee. Emdat sucks and pretty much the accounts are not that great. VERY hard to get your lines in Emdat platform. They LOVE to FIRE....when in actuality.....(that is the term they use)...you cannot FIRE an IC, you can lock them out of the system and I guess that is firing, but those two words have always been a pet peeve of mine....hearing when MTs are fired as ICs....Just my opinion

Rude, rude posters
Hope you rude posters find a good fit for you. Don't run down OSi because some of us like them. No problems either and I have 10 years experience. No newbies here like you say. Love the accounts I'm on. Hope the complainers find a good home, but if not, they will be back and on another company's case.
It is so rude to call QA rude because YOU have
been stuck on QA hold for six months!! And the other poster above - if you are getting QA notes and they are including your supervisor, which you imply is not the norm, then YOU are the one responsible. It matters not if you've been an MT for 1 week or 30 years - if your skills are not up to par, they are not up to par. Many MTs get cleared from QA hold within hours or days at most - companies do NOT want to hold you up from producing, nor do they love to waste their $ on MTs on QA hold. You really need a reality check. And no, I am not rude! It is always, always the MTs lacking in skills who get pissed at QA - no form of feedback is acceptable to that type - even sealed with a kiss and a big bow! 
Rude! Recruiter was very rude to me.
She had an attitude right off the bat.
I don't hesitate to ask. Have been told "yes", and have been told "no." Never been to
:+
You weren't there, you don't know..

Then you weren't there for the last pay period which should be DD on the 5th and was not done unt
x
And like I said, if you weren't typing SM
the stuff, they'd have nothing to come back to you with. And how did they get angry with you anyway? Did you respond to their feedback with negativity and not take responsibility for knowing your account or the basics of transcription?
From knowing many people with your type of attitude over the years, 9 times out of 10 they are people who have the same problems at every job, don't take feedback well, think they are right all of the time and just generally cause problems. Instead of taking responsibility for your part in doing a job, you lay blame on your supervisors, other employees, etc.
They weren't even bad. I don't know why they were deleted sm
unless the name-calling started again. That is the only reason they are deleted. I wish they would've stayed as there was a lot of information from both the company and others and none of it really ugly unless someone blew it as usual.
They weren't very structured when I was there. SM
They pay okay, around 10 cents a line, but no benefits, no taxes taken out, no direct deposit, so that brings it down to about 6 cents a line. If you want your check overnighted, you pay about $25 or $30 for that. Otherwise it gets mailed and take a chance on when you get it. Even having it overnighted does not always work. I had three or four instances when my check was lost, twice for weeks at a time. I'll stick with the more MT friendly companies who manage to pay 9 and 10 cents a line and still give full benefits and direct deposit. I don't mind working a weekend day now and then.
Heard they weren't less than 8 cpl.
Oh, I'm sure they weren't! But what I meant was, (sm)
not that we be contacted before the sale, but after. We sure haven't been getting any reassurance, here.
There weren't a lot of us left (sm)
I think there were a couple of accounts and we were waiting on some bids to come through but capital-wise apparently they could not keep operating waiting on potential accounts so decision was made to close.
I think we all knew it was potentially coming, just surprised that it happened so quickly. I have no hard feelings, but am nervous about finding new work as I have little experience looking for a job!
weren't they saying last year during
transcriptionists? It was part of some contest or something. Maybe that was a few years ago.
now I know you weren't talking to ME right?
/
postings about them is that they weren't getting paid. nt
Who are you talking to. I did not say you weren't! Respond where you are
supposed to
This is the price of doing business. If there weren't
something in it for you, you wouldn't be doing it - whether it be money, ego, prestinge, etc.
I was hoping they weren't liars. sm
What a concept eh to think companies actually tell the truth once in a while. I was hoping they would make good on their promise. I have spent a lot of time making templates and such and did not want to start all over again. OK, I get it now. I told them I would not do anymore work until they sorted this out but I am looking elsewhere. Thanks for the input.
If you weren't looking for the job why'd you read it and post?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Don't come back saying you weren't warned!
Why bother to ask for feedback if you ignore it?
