If it merged with Monrovia you are in luck. Monrovia is great. (sm)
I am an SE there for many years now. They want a schedule and you are supposed to be pretty solid with it in order to qualify for bonuses. If something major comes up (storms, computer problems, schedule conflict, etc.) I just call and they are great.
Monrovia
These are questions you should be asking your supervisor, in fact, should have clarified at the time you were hired, in writing, not strangers on a message board.
former YOG too, Monrovia.
Carole did pay 10 and that was 1999. I was there 1999 until 2005, MQ line counting came to light 2004, when I SAW for myself, they were still doing it, I QUIT and told them what I found. Remember that blurp that would come up at the top of screen about infants and children description (I forget how it went) but it was about 7-8 lines. It did not show up when printed out. The clients were still being charged for it.
I think Carole she just got weary and wanted to rest and I do believe she did struggle about what the outcome would be for the MTs., I recall reading on chat boards, her posts. She just had everything sewn up when she announced, desk cleaned out etc and probably emails the announcement from home. That was it, done. I think she did worry about us a bit. All things come to an end, she prob. was just pooped.
MQ Monrovia office sm
With all the MQ horror stories I see on this board, the Monrovia office MTs always seem happy. I don't understand. It's the same company, so why such a difference? Don't all offices all have to adhere to the same company guidelines? It almost sounds like each MQ office is a completely different company. If I apply for a position at MQ, what factors determine which office I'll be assigned to? Or is it just pot luck? I don't get it. 
I'm very happy at Monrovia MQ! nm

MQ Santa Ana/Monrovia?
Anyone an SE with Santa Ana/Monrovia MQ?
I work for Monrovia MQ sm
They're not bad at all. I always have work, my coordinator never bothers me, workflow is super nice, I wouldn't work anywhere else!  Monrovia Rocks!
A lot of people from Monrovia MQ are there. nm

Does MQ in Monrovia pay for spaces - do you have this ans in writing?
?
Monrovia meets all my needs and expectations.
.
And so did Carole C. who owned YOG in Monrovia...
until she made the sudden announcement that she had sold!
I worked out of the Monrovia office
and was a victim of all the shenanigans. The suits think they can, well, you know, on the MTs. Yep, yep, yep.
I work as SE out of Monrovia - never heard of Sana Ana though.
.
I worked for Monrovia (poster below who got screwed)
Don't know anything about Santa Ana, but stay away from Monrovia.
YOG was sold to Medquist and became their Monrovia office. nm

You get my vote
I am in full agreement. Whoever it is, I feel sorry for them because their entire life mus be miserable! Nasty, nasty attitude.
Actually the HOD will vote on a
name change .. there is a committee in place to make recommendations. I am not so sure that membership across the country wants to change the name (and it costs money) but the vote will be taken this summer. I guess what I wonder is which do you prefer .. the jobs going overseas or voice recognition creeping in and changing the lives of many of us? How do you have input if you do not become involved and speak for change and lobby for change and live and breathe it since it affects you so dramatically. The association works at the direction of the membership and so unlike previously, the board is made up of working MTs. We have created a world that is flat with the advent of the internet .. the cat is already out of the bag and all the salvos have been thrown. I can't really find a way to blame AAMT, but I sure can blame some of the bigger companies with their bean counters who are looking at money only, not patient care. I can blame the government who spoon feeds us information that is distilled and I can grumble all over the place, but nobody hears me except the dog. I have 32 years into this profession and I see it eroded daily by poorly trained personnel, inferior equipment, MTSOs who only see profit, and a medical community indifferent to the caliaber of work being put out by many who sit and scream the loudest. Then I come here and all I can say is .. oh boy!!
DSG also gets my vote! nm

one vote
Kind and professional people, great benefits, lots of work!
Here's another vote for MDI-MD
I would vote TT
I'm relatively new with TT. I love EXText, though, and have used it many many times in the past. Very user-friendly platform. All communication I have had with their company is awesome. They are very friendly and easy to work for. So far haven't had any difficult dictators.....perhaps difficult reports, don't want to mislead you. Pay is above-average after incentives, etc. So far also have not run out of work. I'm not one of the rah rah rah people for them, but in my experience I haven't seen a better MTSO and I have worked for several others in the past. Never MQ, but I'm scared of them. LOL I really think you would enjoy working for them. You may feel free to email if you've got any questions.
You got my vote!!!
I don't come here often but I cannot believe the behavior of this poster!!!!!
I would vote they probably have an ad somewhere
Maybe you're not aware of the situation of the whole company and they may be hiring based on future plans. If someone has received an offer, that's their business and you might not be aware of all things transpiring behind the scenes. If someone got an offer, maybe they should go for it based on other stats on the company.
Another vote for MDI-MD!
Expectations are high, but it's a great company.
Another vote for MDI
The good thing about the 5 reports/20 minutes, is that you can keep your current MT job (they actually suggest that you do) while trying out MDI. I've always found it scary to quit a job, jump to another company and immediately have a production quota to meet while still trying to figure out the new platform and account(s). Maybe I'm just a slow starter, but I really appreciated the limit on reports while in training. They do this with every new account you train on. I've bounced around some in this business, and starting with MDI was about the most comfortable transition I've experienced.
gets my vote for best so far!!
First Choice gets my vote! nm
Another vote for Interpro
:O
thanks for the vote of confidence..sm
 I just hate waiting...don't know why I'm stressing so much bout this, it's not like I don't have a job...thanks!
Thanks for the vote of confidence. It still would have been
them to have said while I was spending $500 to get a new computer
in order to type their work, that they probably would not have SE
in a couple of months, and just rent a computer until I could move over
to Employee status.
But you know what, when I was an employee they made it impossible to
make the lines in order to be an employee because I mostly crap and was
working 12 hours to get 1000 lines (and I know I can do acute care as
I have done this work for 20 years and had just left a hospital acute care setting where I had no problem making 1200 lines a day.
I'm just about ready to dump this whole thing. But thanks for your
reply. I'm still steamed that in dozens of phone calls my supervisor
couldn't have shared any of this with me. That's what she's there for.
Keytrokes has my vote!
I've only been there a few months...but the management is friendly and helpful, and my leads have been great. I agree with the other poster - wages are decent, benefits are good, work has been plentiful - what's not to like? Good luck! 
Keystrokes has my vote also
They have the best people to work for. My account has to be the best, plenty of work.
Another vote for Keystrokes (nm)
SoftScript has my vote
They have a courteous staff at every level. They offer a lot of support including matching new hires with experienced SoftScript MTs AND a real-time SS MT on messenger to answer sticky questions as you work. They pay promptly. They have a page full of contacts for every problem you can imagine, and my emails have always been answered promptly. If you run out of work, you can email them and be put on another account within an hour. They have classes so that you can train upwards. The platform is simple to use. There is a help page for every aspect of your MT work from the platform to lists of towns near the clincs you transcribe for. They are constantly making small improvements to help MTs. They are in regular email contact but they do not hassle you while you work. And, their line rate is competitive for a national. They even have a fun bonus program, and they write and say thank you (and to some of us, that does matter.)
Perhaps the old SoftScript was different, but the current SoftScript gets an A+ from me.
Keystrokes has my vote 110%
I work for Keystrokes and I love, love, love them. I am always left alone to do my work, and my account lead is the best! The employee intranet is so easy to use and it only takes a second to enter in your line counts at the end of your shift. At the end of the pay period, you just click on end pay period and you're done! They are also EXTREMELY flexible. I would recommend them to anyone.
VOTE NO FOR AMPHION
Amphion is the place to work if you really enjoy feeling used and abused.
Transcend gets my vote!
I agree with all of you - management cares, my ROM is great, my TL is great and I got a nice hand-signed card and gift card for the holidays. I have no idea where all the negativity comes from, but I can assure people that we have some very happy people on board.
My vote is for Keystrokes...
I love it there!!!
My vote is for Keystrokes!!!

I vote for OSi ~ Employer of the Year!!
I vote for acute care.

After trying a couple of MTSOs, my vote is TTS
Been there for a couple of months now and don't have any complaints, nice place to work, fair with line counts, flexible, love my account and platform, and all are helpful when needed. Worked for MQ for 20 years, the switch was nice and easy, and now I have far fewer headaches than when with the Q! My vote is TTS.
Facilities have to have employees vote
on whether to accept a union or not at their place of employment or not. If the majority of employees vote no, then a union does not go into that specific facility.
Don't forget the option to vote this down (sm)
I think it's 10 votes to discard a post that gets the nasty post removed. I'd love to see more people using that feature here.
Please vote posts like the one above down. Just 10 votes. sm
People must not be voting or posts like that one wouldn't remain here. I'd love to see everybody using this feature to make the site friendlier.
Now you can make voice known & VOTE

I also vote for Instant Text. nm
.
Having worked for Spheris before, I'd vote for Webmedx.
I tried to get on with them, but I was working three part-time IC jobs at the time so I couldn't get their test files completed on time. I got maybe two hours of sleep three nights in a row because I had so much work dumped on me. Blown chance! I wish I'd blown off the IC jobs and finished the test instead. The test reports were easy enough for me to do. I asked for an extension on the test due date, but never heard back from them. I understand their need for TAT, but they have to realize that it's tough to squeeze testing into an already overloaded schedule. I'd much rather work one steady job than three IC contracts.
Another Sennheiser vote. I have the sport version.

Dont know who died but Oh Brother has my vote.
