No it isn't. Pay is the 1st and 15th for employees and sm

2nd and 16th for ICs. It is for the previous two-week period.
For example, the period that just ended on 4/15 will be paid on 5/1. It is two weeks, not six.
I think people should have to be giving facts on these boards, not rumors. Call the companies directly. I am sure they all have similar pay structures; the last two companies I worked for were just like this and the hospital I worked at prior to them was as well.

1st and 15th pay
I know for Keystrokes, there are no 'waiting' days in between. The checks are in the bank on the 1st and the 15th, so Im not sure about that one!
15th and 1st
nm
Usually around the 15th
My surgeons usually give me 1/2 of my average monthly invoice, another office invites me to their potluck and small gift exchange. The doctors give out small gift cards to us. Regular employees might get larger bonuses, have never compared. I think it is nice what they do for me and I truly appreciate it and do not take for granted. Another one is a very small office and the gal and I go to lunch usually her treat between Christmas and New Years. I make them all goodies, Chex mix and cookies or warm muffins first thing in the morning and give a nice calendar personalized with my name on it. Yep I appreciate my accounts.
1st and the 15th nm

Pay periods run from the 1st through the 15th, and sm
the 16th through the end of the month. They have a LOT of different accounts, so I don't think there is any way to comment on the ESLs. Like anywhere, it will vary from hospital to hospital. And yes, line count is attainable with FT work. Hope this helps. I'm happy there!
I'm paid 1st and 15th

Question regarding 1st and 15th pay -
This has nothing to do with Keystrokes, I work for another company. Pay is suppose to be on the 1st and 15th of each month. I get direct deposit and my account is not credited until around the 6th and 19th. When management was confronted, I was told this is standard.
On the 1st and 15th of each month
They have direct deposit and always pay on time.
Yup, twice monthly on the 1st and 15th.
NM
1st through the 15th, 16th through the end of the month. nm
Payday supposed to be 1st and 15th.sm
Received it 10 to 15 days after that date. I do not think we are talking about same company. I worked for BTS, not Sten-Tel.
Does Keystrokes pay on 15th and 30th?nm

PS This was Saturday the 15th, payday
NM
Not sure if it is still true, but they used to pay once a month, on the 15th, sm
and no direct deposit. I almost took a position with them, but that kind of backed me off. Good luck!
The pay periods end on the 15th and the last of the month. sm
As the other poster said, generally we are paid witihin a week after that. I think the latest I have received my pay was on the 10th. It is true that it is a bit odd not having a set pay date, but at least I can sure I will be paid. I read horror stories on here of companies giving bad checks or not paying at all, and it makes me cringe. I am my sole support, so if I do not get paid, my world turns upside down in a hurry.
If you are considering working for them, I wouldn't let that back me off if I was you. They say the techs are working to fix it so that the line count doesn't have to be done manually, so perhaps in the future, it will be better.
Pay period is 1st and 15th of every month
I submitted my timesheet on 08/31 after working 2 weeks to be paid on the 1st. They have direct deposit and the check is not in my account.
Usually pay period ends on the 15th and last
day of month. Then you get paid somewhere around the 22nd for pay period ending on 15th and get paid around the 6th for pay period ending on the last day of the month. If you work as an IC you may could expect pay one day after submitting an invoice, but if you work for a company it takes time to process payroll and then if DD it has to be submitted and it takes more than 1 day for that.
When I worked for KS took me almost a month to get my first check.
Paydays are on the 1st and the 15th, unless it is a weekend, then sm
it is the following Monday. Welcome to Keystrokes -- hope you love it as much as I do. 
My co also pays 1st and 15th or is supposed to but nothing about 4th and 20th so must sm
not be the same company. So there are more than one out there who should not be in business obviously!
Direct deposit on the 1st and 15th of the month. nm
They do direct deposit on 15th and 1st of each month.
nm
pay 7 days following payperiod end: 15th/30 or 31st

I am paid prompty by DD on the 15th and 30th
for the lines I typed the previous month. Sorry to disagree with you, but there are no standard practice of pay as an IC. Employees should be paid promptly on the expected date, whether that be every two weeks or on the 15th and 30th of each month. 
I know that payday is on the 15th, but since the 16th is President's Day, sm
do you think we will be paid on Friday like we were last payday? This is only my 2nd payday, so I was just curious. If I have to wait until the 17th, then so be it. I don't want to be lectured by those I have seen about people expecting to be pair early. As I said, it happened before, and I just wondered. Since it is getting late and I have not yet received an email with my paycheck stub, it is looking like probably not.
Thanks!
When I was hired I was told the 15th and 30th, but
handbook says 15th and last day of month. I sure was disappointed.
Pay period ends on 15th, checks on the 20th. This
is pretty standard industry-wide.
Paydays are the 1st and the 15th. If the payday falls on a weekend sm
the official rule is that we get paid the following Monday. However, the last 2 times it fell on a weekend and it was a Saturday, we were paid the Friday before (yea!!). There is a listing of all of the official pay dates for 2009. You should ask S for it.
They are clear that they post the checks for the 1st and 15th and the banks determine when they are
I do know one thing though from talking to someone about increasing my 401k deduction, that they did not realize that Monday was a holiday or they would have pushed them through for today like they did for New Year's Day's check. That person also told me that starting next month, if it falls on Saturday, it will pay on Friday, if it falls on Sunday, it pays on Monday. I joked that I knew she did not have kids or she would know that it's a school holiday and I was right! Those of us with kids know more of the holidays because we have to keep track of days off.
Oh for sure employees, but not too often for statutory employees. Sorry for confusion.

Attn: Any Transcend employees or former employees
I have been offered a job with Transcend, but I am not completely sure about it yet and I need some input from you guys. I have read positives and negatives regarding this company but alot of it was pretty old information. Can anyone give me some recent feedback on them? Thanks very much!!!
They have IC and employees, employees get benefits.
Good company. I am very happy there.
Does anyone like it at Precyse? New employees? old employees? nm

Pay period goes from 1st of the month to the 15th, then 16th to the end of the month. sm
So, I guess you could maybe get by with less than 1000 a day, although the incentive tier would make it worth your while to do a bit more. I am using ExText, and yes, I find it easy to use, but then I used it for a year with another company. I think their other platform is Mongoose, and I know nothing about that, so really cannot say.
Yes, they are hiring now. In fact, there is a $500 sign-on bonus. I think it is all just acute care. I'm sure they would love to have someone with your experience. Rhonda Durham is the recruiter. I am sure she could answer any of your questions. I am happy to help too, if I can, but I am relatively new. The account I am working on is mostly psych, it seems, and I am loving it.
Another nice thing, their benefits start after 60 days, not 90 like most.
Good luck to you.
Be glad you get paid tomorrow. We are paid on the 1st and the 15th, so sm
since the 1st is on a weekend, we don't get paid until Monday. It will happen again on the 15th of August …sigh. It is the only thing I do not like about the company, though, so I guess a few weekends of poverty a year is not too much.
Is it still being paid on time if you are paid on the 1st and 15th.....
and if the 15th falls on a Saturday getting paid on the 17th? My bank is open and posts on Saturday that means I am not being paid on the 15th doesn't? This has happened a lot lately.
which employees are getting this and how much.
I havent heard a work about any incentives.
MQ employees
Quoted: Remember employee = real benefits, not this 3 days a year PTO and insurance that is laughable. Also you must provide the equipment, the internet, and pay for downtime such as weather. A supervisor to authorize your stupid OT
PTO can be up to 18 days per year. As a FTE, I was given a week of vacation PTO and holidays. The insurance is not laughable. Compared to many companies out there, it falls right in the middle somewhere. Who pays you because it snows? (or rains, etc)? I know in our region, many MTs were affected by the hurricanes and received some compensation. And where have you worked that you do not have to have OT APPROVED??
I still think so many of you are so accustomed to be picky that the reality of "real job" is going to scare you off.
Certain new employees get PTO right away but other new
employees have to wait a YEAR? Isn't that a little unfair and discriminatory???
And since when is $12-15 an hour considered GOOD in this profession?
Is this thread real? April Fool's Day isn't for another 4-1/2 months! 
How to keep employees
Every single MT company is full of BS these days. They turn our homes into sweat shops, they cut our pay. They have no consideration for our feelings. MTs are job hopping just looking for a decent deal.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if there was a company with high standards. A company who gave so much in the way of decent treatment, time off, flexibility, civilized treatment, appreciation and good pay, and I mean very good pay. Can you imagine what it would be like to have every MT in this godforsaken lousy business clamoring for a job with your company? All you have to do is be FAIR, pay decent WAGES, treat people like HUMANS instead of machines. You would never be posting a help wanted ad.
Man, I wish I could do it myself. I would have the best, brightest MTs out there becasue I would attract and draw them to my wonderful company instead of nickle and diming them to DEATH.
Why don't you want to know what former employees have to say about OSI?
I think they would serve you better on what you want to know. I worked for them for four years. The first couple of years were okay, not many problems to speak of, then it all went down hill from there. The higher-ups started to get nasty to the transcriptionists, they starting changing accounts around, loosing accounts....it really got bad. I think they have a revolving door on their main office, so many people come and go. I would do my research before I jumped the gun with OSI.
no those employees are all over here
throwing muck and personal attacks all over the place, especially at the company (ies) they left. I also know the company monitors the board which resulted in the formulation of the language of not allowing the company named to be posted.
As for not wanting a good thing to leak out, I've always been a cheerleader and am of the opinion that if I can help my employer grow by being a good employee and bringing other good employess to them, then that adds to my job security and a recognition by the company of my being loyal to them.
Maybe that's the part that has so baffled.
It is so new that most of us employees do not know anything about it yet. nm

MDI-MD....I think all their employees are SE (sm)
I got hired for Radiology not acute care...
I only mentioned that again because there were some posters last week who were running out of work at MDI-MD and were afraid they overhired but I think those were acute care MTs...
An OM did this to both employees and ICs
at a company where I worked for 4-1/2 years from home, then about 10 months in the office. I ended up leaving the company because of what I saw happening within the office. The owner was a great person, but left much of the day-to-day operations to the office manager. If someone called in and needed extra cash because they wanted to put a child in a private school, she would take work from someone else and give it to the needy person...now keep in mind that the person needing the extra cash didn't actually HAVE to work because of the husband's income and the person whose work was taken away was single and had no other source of income.
This is just one example, but it happened like this A-L-L the time I was in the office. I lost total respect for the OM and then for the owner for knowing it was happening and allowed it to continue.
They can't keep employees...
They are rude to their employees and they go in and change your time-sheet hours if you are getting paid by the hour and cut your actual work hours in half. That was my experience with them.
They must REALLY need employees
Between yesterday and today I've had 3 phone calls and several emails, after I said no. I told the guy I'm not interested in a company that has QA in India, especially since they would be deciding whether my work was correct or not.
5 employees?
I do two of mine accounts, and I certainly do not require employees? No wonder you weren't making any money. You have to actually do the work yourself not hire people to do it. My goodness.
employees, I mean
nm
US employees
They said they employ approximately 30 MTs in the US.
Can anyone tell me how many employees
before I make a decision. Thank you.
Any MDI-IT employees out there? sm
How long have you worked at MD-IT? Do you run out of work?
