MDI-MD is probably ...

In Reply to: Give Transcend a chance - Liz McGrogan, former co-owner of MDI-FL

the very best transcription organization I have worked for in a very, very long time. That is why I grieve, yes grieve, for what is now lost. One never realizes how much one takes for granted until it is gone.

I am certainly not down on MDI by any means. I know the industry is changing and changing rapidly, just do not expect me to join in the Rah, Rah company rhetoric pep rally, because I hate to tell you I have heard it time and time and time again almost verbatim.

I love MDI. I would certainly not consider working for anyone else. When it changes in Jan to Transcend, all I can say is I will wait and see. I keep and will continue to keep an open mind.
