To: Used to be Happy,
You are describing a mirror image of your exact work habits, the ones that resulted in your moving to another company. Good Luck!
I HAVE FOUND HEAVEN
I know we all hear a lot of negative feedback on many companies for many different reasons, whether it be benefits not being paid, money not being paid, jobs not staying in the U.S. I tried four different companies before I found MDI and made it my home. I have never worked with such a great group of caring, supportive people. I have been transcribing for more than thirty years, on and off, and have found everything I could want in a company, especially working from home. They always have support and someone always answers the phone when you call, you stick to your schedule and you don't have extra people on there taking your work away, you get paid on time, and get time off when you need it with a little advanced notice. The thing that totally blew me away was receiving a package from them the other day with a big thank you card for hard work, and a box full of goodies. I don't remember getting that from employers when I worked on site. If you are looking for a company that keeps their word and has happy longterm employees, MDI is the place to be.
I would love 78 cpl. I would be in hog heaven.

Thanks. Sounds like Heaven to me. nm
No my account is not from heaven--
rather, that other place! It is a high ESL kinda place.
Being an arm's length away from heaven is no different
If you aren't there, you aren't there. That's the plain truth.
My mother used to say oh for heaven sakes....
Even though a company does not offshore does not mean they won't tomorrow, so applying to another company will not solve this dilemma (if you want to call it that). I don't think everyone should quit DRC or whatever the new name is now. I think you all should be just fine! This is not the end of the world. Who knows? This could mean better benefits. I wish you all the best, but I wouldn't jump ship if I were you unless things start to go downhill. If you like the company and know your accounts, why should you? The glass is half full, not half empty, that's what I always try to say!  Stay strong..... 
How is pointing out one person's heaven is another

Focus Infomatics is outsource heaven.
The hospital I typed for, for the last 6 years just left MQ for this company on 10/31/2007. I was crushed, so I found where they went, decided to apply, got a call back from Focus, but decided before I did anything, I would investigate and it was all negative.
I would rather die than work for anyone who outsources.
My old hospital is a trader. I hope they burn!!!
It's a holiday, for heaven's sake, alot of docs off today!
lighten up.
For Heaven's sake, they did NOT overhire. It was a holiday weekend when dictation practically st
Get a grip, people!
If KS needs a second recruiter to help with the volume
I would love to be a recruiter. If you guys are in need of another recruiter, please contact me.
Low volume work
Same company, probably. My butt is now shaped like my chair's seat.!!
What's with the low work volume. I know about the feast or famine crap, but this is ridiculous.
I'm getting worried about this company, well BEEN worried about this company.
There seems to be either a severe lack of communication between MTs and bosses, or they just don't care.
Ok, rant over. Thanks for listening.
work volume
That's a good point about time and work volume. I work the 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. shift and there is usually plenty of work I guess because less people are working at that time.
I like them but work volume has been very low.
I have a very hard time making my minimum lines and no matter how many times I ask, I can't get put on any other accounts. If their work load picked up, they'd be great.
Big Hospital usually pay less (volume). Maybe you
If you are really interested, you can do some of your own research. Sites like those below have business profiles.
manta dot com
linkedin dot com
For example (old information):
MedQuist: $340 Million Revenue – 7512 employees (claim only 25% are Medical Transcriptionists, 5% Editors)
WebMedx: $38 Million Revenue – 800 employees (Average $47,500 per employee) (claim 29% are Medical Transcriptionists)
or it could be the work volume is just still low BUT
now the MTs figure they can cherrypick since they were sold out.?? That could be the reason, e-mail your leader and ask for them to check for skipping on your account if you keep getting the hard dictators!
once in a while when work volume is very high.nm

Quality versus volume
I feel the need to qualify my statement above. The MTSO makes their money on volume and QA is a necessary evil. The MT makes the bucks, not QA. They are required to have QA to avoid law suits for mistakes and to keep the client satisfied. Quality is something that is missing throughout the land ..everywhere you go, you see this. You can't even get a decent sandwich anymore at a fast-food because quality is not the point..no it is not...volume is the point. Quality be damned!
I am on that account and it is not overflow. It is a set volume with sm
a set 2 sites. You really should ask the lead instead of posting on an anonymous site which makes it look bad. Especially when you know as well as I do that this account is one of the best out there. I make great money and great lines.
I think that once it was caught up, which was a backlog created by the in-house staff, that they needed to make sure that everyone has the work they need but that the account is kept in TAT. Obviously there will not be as much work as it was unlimited while behind, but my understanding is that it will still be very busy as we are 100% responsible for the 2 sites.
BREITNER WORK VOLUME?
I'm wondering if the low volume of work mentioned by other posters here is for all shifts or just daytime? The recruiter recently told me that there is plenty of work and she offered me a full-time position. Might it be just to have me around when and if they get more work in the future? Would I be a fool to expect full-time volume NOW if I would be working late second shift?
What makes you think recruiters are paid on volume?
Most that I know are paid salary. Only a few pay on commission.
Had to leave FN due to neverending low work volume. SM
Almost everyone has to work IC if you don't live in California. Liked working there, though.
Why would mgmt contact employees to explain the low volume,
if everyone is able to make as many lines as you do? BTW, I'm NOT the OP, just another employee sitting here waiting for work. Your statement was extremely condescending and rude to those of us who CAN'T make 20K lines because of low volume.
FN is a good company. Work volume much too low. SR pay very poor.

If someone has the experience, the volume and the quality, whole package, they SHOULD be paid well.
Our employees, at 0.08-0.10 per line make $24-30 per hour. That is not peanuts.
Yes, but their internet accounts at the moment are high volume ESLs nm

I wouldn't quit a decent company for seasonal low work volume.
I'd hang around and see what the New Year brings. I wouldn't say that if you were working for MQ, but I would for a company with a decent reputation. If it is still slow in January, I'd talk to my supervisor and find out what her take is on the situation.
Their new pay plan brought me back to newbie wages since I don't do high volume. And the work loa

Thanks. I've only been there 3 months and was wondering. Asked for a high-volume backup. No reply
