Why is it that when someone is happy, dozens will come on to nay-say but when someone comes on to bash a company, they have all the support in the world?
I personally do not like to come here as it is depressing, and this time was no exception. I had some time with a quiet house with 3 kids at their friends' houses, husband pulling a double shift and all work and housecleaning done. I thought I would check out this site again after a few months, put a post on and BAM! attacked like everyone else.
I just wanted to give my opinion on what works for me. I am sorry if you think they play favorites, but just because a company treats the employees well who do well does not mean they play favorites. It means that they reward those who do their jobs and do them well.
For the most part, work ethic is gone in this country and what is that going to lead to???????

She has a partner in crime, some
She doesn't work alone. She works closely with some guy in India and together they call the shots. It is an India company, and IMO lacks professionalism and sophistication.
Not a cheerleader .................
just someone who works hard and appreciates having a job. I have worked for MDI four years and over that time I have seen MTs come and go, doesn’t look like it has put much of a cramp in their profit margin. It may be hard for you to believe, but some people actually do like their job at MDI and are grateful to have one.
I did not ask you what issues you think transcend needs to “fix” with MDI, but am curious, as I really don’t have any problems with them, just do my work every day; I leave them alone and they leave me alone – just the way I like it.
I don’t understand why people think you are a “MDI cheerleader” when you don’t have anything negative to say. Why is that? Sorry you are so unhappy.
Since your such a MQ cheerleader
and so good at your job, then why don't you share your secrets with the rest of us and maybe one day we can be sittin' pretty too.
Okay...I don't know who this cheerleader is
but if you can't count at least 5 grammatical errors in this answer, you should not be an MT.
This person says the same thing every time, but I would be willing to bet he/she does not pound a keyboard for a living.
TT Cheerleader
You must have been blessed with a wonderful VR platform that actually works. Believe me there are platforms where you can do up to 150 edits on a 60-line report. Easier to type it. Be grateful that you have something that works. Many of us have been burned badly by programs that think presbyacusis equals please be a Q-tip, and social director is a pocket rectum, etc. Have mercy on those of us who have been dumped on by companies who don't care how many edits we have to make, just so they can make an unjust profit at our expense.
Definitely not a cheerleader.
I will never be a cheerleader for this company, but I don't think it is helpful to post blatant misinformation. I would not advise anyone to work here that doesn't already because I'm sure pay for new employees is much worse even than the drop the old-time employees have seen.
they should nominate you the KS cheerleader...sm
that account IS VERY BAD....and they will tell you anything at KS to keep you on their awful accounts. They play favorites with their MTs and that is nothing new with KS.
In reply to former TT cheerleader...
I agree with you. Dictaphone is one of the major cancers that is eating away at our trade. Note that when Focus stops running ads, the work dries up at TT. That is, until the people who hired on at Focus wise up and leave. Then the work becomes plentiful at TT, along with a few of the other Dictaphone puppets out there. The cure for this cancer, whether we like it or not, is for we the MTs to not work for Focus or for anyone who has their life's blood from Dictaphone. The hospitals and facilities would get sick of the crud that is typed by the offshore that Focus/Dictaphone uses. Could you imagine the offshore doing VR. Wow, Dictaphone would have the best of two worlds - cheap labor offshore doing their VR crud. Imagine the profit they would make. They, my friends, are one of the major players in the doom of our trade. Thanks for the ear.
Neither management nor a cheerleader
Just because I have no problems with Cornerstone, doesn't mean I am in anyway a cheerleader for Spheris. I have plenty of gripes about Spheris, but Cornerstone and VR don't happen to be on the list, except for the VR pay of course. I've been around for 7 years and have watched things deteriorate.
Oh my God, a cheerleader. I'm in highschool again. (NM)

Well, I said this once and got accused of being a cheerleader or an owner, but
Isn't it possible they are advertising because they are a growing company and are getting new accounts. That does not necessarily mean a big turnover. Sometimes people are so negative, even without knowing the facts. Go ahead, call me a cheerleader or one of the owners.
If you posted above as "TT Cheerleader", then YOU need to
see the note from the moderator. You are unnecessarily mean and nasty.
Never seen a Spheris cheerleader on this board
I've seen Spheris employees including myself clear up misconceptions or lies, but I've certainly never seen anyone cheerleading for Spheris, because frankly there is nothing to cheer about.
seektruth is one rabid cheerleader
Go ahead, defend Webmedx to the death of your job - its coming. Some of us are speaking truth of what can happen to your job at this company - but you don't want to hear it. Enjoy your trip up river denial - and find the real truth at the end of your journey. I had a perfect romance with this company for a couple years, and it gave me a false sense of security too. Oh well, you'll only believe it when it happens to you - and it will. Meanwhile, enjoy your job and try to have a little compassion for those of us who no longer have a job to enjoy, because Karma can be a B.
be careful, you are sounding like a cheerleader. Dont
s
I don't mean to be a cheerleader but I am really tired of seeing others post "RUN" SM
Or say things like there's NEVER ANY WORK when there is work for maybe different ESL levels, accounts, etc. Sorry for being overly enthusiastic but this is such a good company, and I think a few bad apples who left the company previously cannot wait to bad-mouth it.
I think i will just butt out and let everyone go to work someplace crappy, and count my blessings.
Sorry if I came across too strong for anyone; i just like it here so darn much and have had such a positive experience OVERALL.
girl-on-girl crime
Being remote, it makes it easy for someone to mess with your life if you get them angry, especially if they can manipulate line counts and the type of work you get.
Perhaps that is why most of us don't speak up more, although that is precisely why we should.
Who's going to be the overseer for this industry, to make sure that all is conducted fairly and within the law? I don't think anybody outside the industry cares that much. There are much bigger things to worry about right now, I guess.
Peace.
Happy New Year. May we all have happy home lives (sm)
and do whatever it takes to make our work lives work for us too.
Right and told we should be happy we have jobs. Not too happy right now.

MDI Maryland HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY
THIS IS NOT MDI IN NY OR FL!!

I can't say enough nice things about this company; very flexible, you area a statutory employee. That means that they pay the employer portion of your SS. Great on time pay, tons of work. Do your lines and you are left alone! Expect to be responsible though. Pay for your phone; rent a Lanier or a C-phone if you don't have one; BayScribe platform. Anything that is a bit of an inconvenience is more than made up for. You will know to the minute how much you will make and how many lines you have typed. Check it out!
happy here
Positive experience for me. Two years later, still happy, still busy, still meeting 300+ lines an hour. To each his own... guess it's jump on Diskriter is crap band wagon again day. On any given day, one company or another is being ripped a new one on these sites.
Probably one of the best. I'm happy there.

Happy with QT and FCM!!! nm

Happy there......
I am very, very happy at OSi. I left a company where I had been a IC for over 8 years and went with OSi as an employee. I have had no regrets. I think some people say QA is snooty because they expect a job to be done right and often times it isn't. We have access to all reports typed on our accounts and to tell you the truth, it's amazing how some of these MTs got hired.
I love the platform, pay is always on time and often incentives create huge paychecks. They are very professional and very flexible. No cons as far as I can see.
That's cause we are happy!!
Why do you want to bash anyway,let's talk about good things
I am happy too
There are some that still like Transcend. i understand that others have valid complaints, but not everyone there experiences the same issues. Some of us are really telling the truth when they say they are happy.
Happy for you.
I hope you like your new job. I have been contemplating applying with them myself but worried about their flexibility.
YAY!!! I am so happy for you. Out of (sm)
all the places I have worked, they really are the best!! For many,many reasons!!
Yep and happy about it!
Yes I make 1 cent less than what FOCUS would hire me on for at their top pay. In exchange I get to work with an amazing company who treats me with respect, knows who i am, who my children are, listens to what i have to say and so much more. It is worth the cent to work for a great company.
Happy to Mad?
so have you changed your attitude about MQ? this is exactly what MQ doesn't want to happen -- MTs being able to find out what is going on in different offices, wage-wise and otherwise.
ARE YOU HAPPY THERE?
Can you be hired on as SE?
Happy.....
Sweetheart, you have no business releasing your venom on me. You are one with the mental health issue. If you were indeed a "Happy OSI'er," you would not care what anyone else thinks or says about that company.
The fact that you can get enraged so easily when other people express opinions contrary to your own tells me that you are indeed in need of a little Zoloft, Xanax, or maybe just a good dose of reality. The rest of the world doesn't have to agree with you about anything. It does not make us dysfunctional, depressed, unhappy, or stupid. It just means we see things differently.
You're in for a rough ride in life if you are get so upset about others' opinions.
very happy
Yes Cbay is still around and going strong, more work than I can handle lately. They do hire US MTs. Everyone knocks them for sending work overseas but what company doesn't these days? I am very happy with them and pay is on time every 2 weeks! They pay my bills so I really wouldn't care if they sent the work to the moon!
Is anyone happy...
Please leave some info on this board if you are happy working for OSI. There is a lot of negative, but it may be some sour grapes too. I would like to hear some good input about the company. Thanks.
With OSi for about 3 yrs. Very happy now with
It is great working with true medical transcription professionals.
OSi is good for a laugh, though!
I am very happy with OSi
You will read a lot of negativity, but this is something that you will have to decide on your own. I am very happy there. Sure, they aren't perfect, but no company is. Let me know if you want more information.
I'm happy as can be -
.
Happy because . . .
I have 2 good accounts with steady work, love BayScribe, like my team leader, and good pay that is always on time. I do agree with the above poster who says she feels they may be overhiring on some accounts to keep them in TAT. However, I haven't seen overstaffing on my accounts (yet)!
I'm happy!
Don't work on MANTIS but this company is really, really growing by leaps and bounds - even made the Fortune 500 top growing companies in the US. Great people (really nice) and a refreshing change from the Big Guys. Pay is generally $1.10 regular and $2.25 special - really nice accounts too. Check 'em out!
She's not alone. I'm happy there, too. sm
I'm FT and don't utiize the benefits, but I'm very happy at Spheris. My platform is easy to use, my supervisor is awesome, and the other girls are great. I don't have a hard time getting time off, and they pretty much leave me alone to do my work, but if I need help, they have terrific people at the help desk. Most Spheris employees are very happy here, but we just don't spend a lot of time of message boards.
Happy again
Wake up MTs. Change is good. Why is everyone so afraid to go somewhere else? If you are not happy, you can only make yourself happy. LEAVE. Do not wait for these nationals or other MT companies to make you happy. They won't. You must do it yourself. I'm happy after the change I made. You can be too. Just go for it. What do you have to lose?
Also very happy with MDI-MD nm
s
Happy as an IC
x
Very happy with QT! nm
xx
me too, happy
x
Another happy DSG MT!
So far, no complaints!
Happy at QT also
z
Happy with them
I go an 11 cent per 65-character line with spaces included job from them. Very flexible. The hiring process was a lot easier than going it on your own. I was VERY happy with my experience there...this was 2-1/2 years ago. Maybe things have changed. They get a one-time fee, not a portion of your line rate.
There are more than two happy at MDI but
Just because two of you have work does not discount that the rest of us do not. I struggled to get 1000 lines yesterday, had to keep dialing back in scrounging for work. And as others have said here, we have talked to Dorothy and MDI is aware that there is not enough work to go around. Maybe you two have an account that they did not put too many MTs on. Apparently on mine they did. I have been on this account for many years and I have always had work until the last several months.
I'm also happy there
Can't compare it to other companies as it is my first MT job, but I have been there almost a year and am quite happy. No desire to move anywhere else. Good training, and they attempt to communicate with their employees. Steady workload, benefits and pay reasonable.
I'm happy at JLG
Pay on time, tho by snail mail as they do not offer direct deposit. Account I am on is great with a low volume of ESLs. Great QA with samples provided, if requested. Flexibility, easy enough platform, not a lot of pt. demos.... I just LOVE it here.
