If it's such a big deal to you, why are you posting?
On every website you merely just *visit* and with every post you make on any message board (registration or not), your IP address is logged. This is nothing new and certainly not unique to this site alone.
DUH!
lol
What is the big deal about posting the name? Is it not allowed?

It's a great deal - I'd take it if
you can stick to a rigid schedule. If you can't, then they will find someone who can. Those jobs aren't easy to come by.
Your answer has a great deal to do sm
with what has happened with your job. I've been doing this for longer than you, but there is not a day when I don't use at least 5 of the references I have here to look something up.
The QA at Keystrokes is great too, at least the person I deal with. sm
She is sympathetic about the truly awful guys and usually has some little funny thing to say that makes me smile. I never feel talked down to or like someone is beating me over the head, changing the rules as they go, as I have with some companies.
Only some people there have an AOL address. It's not a big deal.
Yes, they do have their own domain, but have also had the AOL for a long, long time.
They are not nice people to deal with and
only a few of the chosen can get away with even making suggestions. The rest of us are called unhappy and just told to find another job. This starts at the top and falls all the way down the ladder in management. No one cares about you, you are just a number and you are not as important to them as the Indians. Their efforts to try to retain good MTs is just a facade, there is no truth to it. They would rather we all just left.
Big Deal... more people should move
a schedule as an IC status. It's illegal... tired of it! 
Reminds me of QT. Same deal, bunch of people SM
from YOG (sorry, but true), went to work there and everyone joined the bandwagon. Then kaput.
I truly wish better for all MTs at TT. Seems like they have a good team to start with.
I'm sure I will get flak for posting this. I wish you all luck. I hope it is the dream come true everyone wants. I wish all MTs well and peace in the world.
System great, pay good, everything great, but most managers from old Edix, problems, poor people ski
when you are out of work, you are out of luck. If you are good at brown-nosing, are tough enough to be without any self-esteem, and have maybe money coming into the household on the side in case you tick someone off, then you may succeed, for a little while.
Don't ever ask questions or have problems with anything. Don't ever have a problem. Don't think you will have any control over anything you do, either.
A few 'good' managers remained when I left, but the new ones were all from the old Edix, and were completely into numbers, cared nothing for individual MTs...if there is work, you BETTER be working. If there no work, you will hear nothing, no one will help you.
I worked there part-time briefly. People are very nice to deal with, sm
and pay was okay. You had to wait 90 days to get direct deposit, and until then checks were mailed, which is a bit of pain, but they were always on time. I didn't care that much for my account, but the leader was always quite helpful. They must be a bit disorganized, though, as I still get messages from the help desk to help out, and I have been gone at least 3 months! And the help desk is apparently in India, if that makes any difference to you.
LOL I think it's about 3 people posting over and over. They just have had a recent ad. and

But people here are posting this woman's name!

I see a lot of people posting on here about quitting MQ and I was just wondering where they all went
and is it better. I guess we wont know what we are up against yet for about a week then we will see what happens.
The people who are posting most negative posts
have not worked at Focus in a long time. I work there now and think they are great. I have had no problems. Pay is always on time, nobody bothers me, and I always have plenty of work....only work on 1 account.
It means that over 200 people have viewed the posting--nm

Thanks for posting that...Just goes to show that Keystrokes is a great company and will work with yo
I hope it works out for you and you start feeling better soon...
Some people are posting they are leaving Transcend because of QA problems. Anyone know about this.
:
Maybe if this deal loses clients, I can work out an at-home deal with one of my current accounts.
Or else get a McJob at McDonald's flipping McBurgers....
Great, there are people out here who...
are the sole support of their families (who usually need to eat regularly, wear clothes and shoes and need electricity and other "luxuries."
You would tell someone in that position to be grateful for the opportunity to spend time with their children in that case? How much quality time can a parent have with kids if they are worried about paying the bills?
Great people....
I was hired by Alltype a couple of weeks ago. Everyone is professional and friendly. They pay excellent and they hire both employee and IC status. When the account that I was hired for was having technical problems they offered me an hourly wage compensation becuase it was not my fault. Now thats a company that cares about their transcriptionists. I'm pretty sure I'll be with them for a long, long time.
Great people nm

These people who think 40K is great sm
weren't around when this was a real career, when the pay scale was 11 cpl+ as an employee with benefits and a normal amount of paid time off during the year, equipment provided by the company, internet paid by the company.
Fast forward from then until today and what you have is a clerical job with clerk salary.
Yep. Great people.
I worked for them many, many years ago, but absolutely love the owner, Cindy, and her husband. (Back then, not sure about now), the pay was great and I felt like a member of the family. Highly recommended.
The people are great to work with
and the pay is good and on time. I do find the work isn't as steady as I'd like though, but hey, that's the MT business, right?
Pay is a bit low, but great bunch of people. sm
Clinic work is super easy -- 7 to 7-1/2 cpl -- and I think acute care pays 8-1/2 cpl. They pay once a week, direct deposit, work is done in Word.
Hope this helps.
Great for some maybe....but they are nice people...nm
xxxxx
That was great. My heart goes out to the MDI people, too. nm

Seems like the problem is becoming more widespread. Well, the people that think MQ is so great may
not after they are in the same situation. You know, things are great until they arent. One thing is for sure, it will change and all these people that are getting bonuses etc with tons of work are bound to be right along with us in the very near future. Guarantee it. MQ is after very VERY short TAT and so that will become companywide as it is already. Cant run a 1 hour TAT and have people not running out of work constantly. That also is a given.
Great people..AWFUL platform!!!nm

Consider yourself in the inner circle. She is great to people she likes but
quite the opposite if she does not. There is no pattern either, all a whim. I am lucky that she likes me, but I am afraid that the knife will someday be in my back.
JLG as a company has been great to me. Do not let the recruiter spoil the opportunity to work for a great company. Just grin and bear it because once you are in, you do not have to deal with her.
I work for Allegiant too - great people and a
nm
Yes, some really great, talented people have left, and that's
always a danger sign to me. If upper management keeps being mentioned as a reason these good people are leaving, somebody should take notice. This company seems to be hemorrhaging talent and keeping an incompetent, power-hungry suit. It's hard to know whether to leave or stay. I would not recommend them to anyone right now.
Great people, IC only, low pay, easy accounts, sm
direct deposit, paid weekly, always on time.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
Good! Great people to work for!

Forever, people had 2 jobs, not just MTs. And great
This is what i mean by you pilot your life, your life shouldnt just be floating you thru life. Over the course of about 2 years, I have made conscious effort to make my life work for me. Figured out what platforms I like, what type accts. What kind of equipment works best for me, how to efficiently handle docs and files. In word based platform, I am Speedy Gonzales as far as how I get in and out, how I process docs. Still spend same amount of time on actual edit and type, those you can only do so fast and be correct but all other aspects, I am fast. You find your fit, which is not a one size fits all. But, working 2 jobs is not the territory of onlyl the MT world. My dad did it while my mom also worked as RN.
Yep. Me too. Nice people, great place to work!
.
Worked for them years ag. GREAT people to work for. nm
.
Proscript is a wonderful company, great people. nm
x
Great place. People are super to work sm
with and answer your questions, etc. Pay well and always on time. If I ever work at home again, I will go back there first.
Great bunch of people, plenty of work sm
pay on time, around 9 cpl depending on account (without spaces) or 8 cents line (with spaces). Some accounts use long distance with Laniers others use Emdat, others use a different word-based platform that is real easy to learn.IC only, you commit to a set amount of lines per day, 24 hour turnaround time, they leave you alone to do your work. I would have stayed forever but I needed the benefits.
Transtech has great people but work has been low for 5 months...nm
nm
I only worked there briefly, but great people, and pay always on time. sm
They do have a thing where you have to get a paper check for the first 90 days, then you can have direct deposit. The account that I was on used ExText.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
Proscript is a great place. Nice QA people. nm
xxx
Platform is easy to use, and the people are great to work with. sm
I only work there part-time, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Good luck on whatever you decide.
I've heard the pay isn't that great, nice people tho. NM
:
Good accounts, great people, plenty of work. sm
I'm past that "honeymoon" stage of the first few months that another poster mentioned. I still find them to be the best for me. Never run out of work, always there for questions, including timely responses, great people (QA and otherwise).
I'd highly suggest contacting either your supervisor or Jane (as she offered) about lack of work. As you should see on the daily reports, there is plenty of work out there.
Good luck & I hope it works out for you.
great friendly people, IC work, pay so-so (9-1/2 cpl), clumsy platform. nm

Do you know what scares me? The great disservice you are doing to the people whose medical reports
.
Metro in Georgia is one. Give them a call. Great people. nm

I love it there. Tons of work, great people. I am 100% happy.
