If emails saying, "You guys make Transtech rock" pays your bills, let me know, because

I have figured out a way to pay my bills with such **old, wornout** words.

Management is rocking alright, because their paychecks are not affected at all with the NO WORK/LOW WORK situation that has been going on now for MONTHS and MONTHS.  That seems so unfair when without the MT's, the mgmt would have no paychecks!!!!!

I have figured out a way to pay my bills with such **old, wornout** words.

Management is rocking alright, because their paychecks are not affected at all with the NO WORK/LOW WORK situation that has been going on now for MONTHS and MONTHS.  That seems so unfair that their high paychecks keep coming in to mgmt -- when without the MT's, the mgmt would have no paychecks!!!!!

Seems to depend on who you talk to.  I have been with Edix/Spheris for 5 years now, no real problems other than a couple of supervisors that weren't very nice, but I went off those accounts and everything is fine.  Our medical insurance has gone from pretty good to flat out crap and I think a lot of people have left because of it, but as far as the company they aren't that bad.  They always pay on time, I have never had trouble taking vacation or time off.  I would recommend them if you have another source for insurance. And let me reassure you, I am just a MT, not in management, not in recruiting.

Why don't all of us get the SAME emails?

Why send to certain groups of people?

We should ALL be receiving the same emails at all times when sent out to MT's -- not just a certain group of MT's.

Have kids, work early mornings and evenings on the weekends and still get to spend time with them.  During the week early mornings, 5 hours while they are in school, then again after they are in bed.  You do what you have to in this economy - and really at all times.  Never did work 9-5 on M-F. 

This is healthcare. Most of us work with hospital accounts and the hospitals are open 24/7.  Shifts at the hospital are 7-3:30, 3 - 11:30, 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.  Don't see very many 9-5 M-F shifts there, do ya? 

a place that paid that....   Could it be one in the same?  

Probably would be better for her to just straight type.  That is what I have to do also.  HATE VR....

lot of expanders/briefs, because you will be constantly deleting and retyping in stuff, rather than getting to expand a word/words.  Definitely not the same money.  Why do you think all these companies are going to VR?  To put more money in the MT's pockets?  NOT

I don't know who has ruined this wonderful company, but E is one of them !!!  Of course, D is in control of everything, so just amazed at the condition of TT now.

when we get paid was a big STOP sign for me. All I know.

Yes, I contacted the recruiter right away.  However, I was told that I misunderstood the interview.  But, how could I misunderstand information that was never provided?  

I'm glad that your emails are answered.  Mine went 5 days without an answer.  I don't know why yours are answered while mine were not.  Maybe it is because you already work there?  Or, maybe you are now communicating with someone other than the recruiter?

The first excuse for the delay in response was that the company was having email issues.  The next excuse was that managers had been in a meeting that lasted 5 days.  This was all after having been given 24 hours to return the tests; that's 24 hours after the recruiter sent the email, not 24 hours after I received it.  Too bad if I wasn't online 24/7.  My conclusion:  It appeared that I would be expected to jump when they said jump, but they would respond at their convenience.

My main gripe through it all was that at every turn there was a new rule to follow or a hoop to jump through.  For instance, after accepting the employee position, I received an IC contract.  It had not been revealed to me initially that I would be an IC for 30 days, but this IC contract contained the stipulation that I would be confined to a set schedule from day one, and the schedule could not be changed for 6 months.  The IC contract specifically read that it was a 1-year contract, not 30 days as the recruiter subsequently claimed was the rule.  Plus, I was required to obtain an EIN from the IRS--none of these are usually required for employees.  BTW, it is easy to obtain an EIN and I, in fact, already have one.  But, my complaint is that they required it.  As an employee, an SSN should be sufficient.  So something didn't add up right.  Also, I'm picky when it comes to written contracts versus spoken words.  I always lean towards accepting the written contract as the whole truth.

Also, on the first round, I was told to be sure to let them know if I had any vacations scheduled soon.  On the second round, I was told to be sure to inform them of any doctor appointments and any other appointments scheduled for the next 90 days.  After being offered the job and providing references, I was then asked to fill out an application.  It seemed like it was never going to end. 

Because we always get treated the best during the recruitment process, I really was scared about what was ahead, and just how far AllType would go with regard to control and manipulation.  Therefore, I withdrew my acceptance of the position.
