OSI/Deventure/Precyse/Spheris

Sorry--a bunch of very specific questions here that the companies don't seem to address, at least not right off the bat, and for which I couldn't find answers on the board here.

OSI: Do they offer incentives? Also, in an old post, an MT wrote here that whenever she had a high hourly line average, OSi would change the account. Is this still true? If you get hold of a really awful dictator, can you change?

Deventure: They're contemplating hiring me at level 1. Is there any way to eventually change to level 2, which makes more money--can you learn whatever you need to with them to do this? Do they give bonuses/raises? Do they contribute to 401K? Would I need to buy any equipment? What do they pay you when you're training? Is there a lot of work? Do you get any kind of flexibility in schedule? Do they offer shift differentials?

Spheris: Big question: Are they still as bad as the old posts on this board make 'em out to be? Do they contribute to 401K? Have they moved to voice recognition yet or do they plan to? Can you get as much work as you want (I'd like to work as much as possible), or do they still strictly require you to work only 8 hours a day? Are they still offering you one pay rate and then changing it on you? If you get an impossible dictator, can you change?

Any specific answers (not just ___ sucks!) would be very, very helpful. Thanks, y'all!

Deventure or Spheris
Anyone who has worked for both, I'd like some feedback in which is better and why.  Feel free to email me.  All responses confidential. Thanks!

I still feel like a team player of Spheris, as the shackle scars are still on my legs! Spheris was

Micromanaged to the microsecond, or ms!  Horrible. And part of a team?  Total opposite - part of a team as in prison.


Don't imply you're worried at all. Just stating fact that Spheris does NOT allow a Spheris MT
work concurrently for MQ - no exceptions.  MQ, on the other hand, does not have the same feelings as Spheris.  Just all I had to say so that MTs aren't misled into thinking they can do the same "legally". Even went to the ropes on this issue with Spheris, as I was professional as well, and wouldn't share info, etc. The point they raised was that MQ is their direct #1 competition, and if I was typing for MQ and doing great work, that was in direct conflict of interest with Spheris' best interests.  Guess which one I obviously stuck with!!
Thank you, Spheris recruiter! Anybody wanna place a bet that there are lots of Spheris
HELP WANTED ads on the job board?? So funny!! Out of the blue, Spheris, we love you!! Lets all run and apply NOW!!
I also know Spheris would fire you if they knew you worked for MQ. That is a BIG NO with Spheris!

Spheris - any spheris employees out there care to s/m
comment on the new Cornerstone platform, good, bad? Will we all be going to SR on this? Thanks.
DeVenture
Anybody work for DeVenture?  Need info.
Deventure...

Nice people, but I found their platform to be rather tedious and time-consuming.  Also very strict on scheduling and I needed more flexibility. 


HTH.. 


DeVenture ?
Any DeVenture feedback?  All e-mails kept confidential.  Thanks!
Deventure

I see unanswered posts about Deventure and thought I would give my opinion. I am new there, but impressed. Setup was extremely smooth and recruiter, supervisor, and tech people are on the ball. Good feedback and encouragement. Great accounts and not-so-great accounts. The constant ads are because they are adding new accounts by the minute.


 


DeVenture

I was just hired by DeVenture. Can anyone tell me anything at all about this company that they would like to share?


Thanks in advance!


Did you say you are now with DeVenture?
I think you did in another post, if I'm mistaken I apologize!  This totally sounds like something they would do.  Truly some great people there!
deventure
does anyone know if deventure has work strictly in the US or do they outsource to india?  I was wondering whether or not to apply but don't want to if they outsource.  Thanks in advance.
DeVenture??
Any opinions?  good/bad???
DeVenture -

don't venture. the new Q -- dedictated to making even MORE profit off our hardworking backs with fewer crumbs in return.

Okay, I didn't get any responses about the equipment from DeVenture, so I have another question.  I have read that the pay is on the low side, but is it possible to make a decent salary with them? Is the platform user friendly?  Thanks.


DeVenture
I work part-time for DeVenture and you have you use your own computer. They did not provide me with a foot pedal either. They pay 4 cpl for editing.
DeVenture pay
DeVenture pays only 4 cpl for editing.
Deventure anybody? Looking for sm
some information. Line rate and lpd? M-F or do you work 1 day on the weekends? How is their major medical-affordable for a family? How long does it take to kick in? Just trying to get a few answers first before I fill out the app.
How is the pay at DeVenture?
nm
Deventure Pay
Actually, that's pretty good rate of pay for eScription. I get 3.9 cents per line. This week, I'm up to 600 lph.
DeVenture
I have one main and two backups. Plenty of work on all of them.
Deventure
I've been with Deventure for over 2 years. I'm very happy there also.
deventure VR pay
Does anybody know what Deventure pays for VR position? Thanks.
Deventure
I really thought this was going to be a great company to work for until the Recruiter/QA supervisor tried to cover herself/save face by telling a blatant lie.  The end. So, be careful and watch your back. Sometimes it is those who initially seem so nice and helpful that end up being not so honest.
Deventure

Hayseed,


I'm responding.  I just didn't see your note until now.

Deventure

Nope, I had a real recruitment nightmare experience with them.  They get a chapter in my TEMPORARY NIGHTMARES AS AN MT book whenever I write it.   I sent you a PM.

Deventure
Are you required to work weekends?  Do they supply equipment?  I am thinking about applying for third shift. 
DeVenture
I was just hired and I am not required to work weekends but I can if I want to. Yes, they supply equipment.

3. No clocks to punch.
4. Insurance starts 60 days after hire.
5. About $23 a week.
6. I don't have vision or dental but it is offered.
DeVenture
Would like to hear from people who work or have worked for DeVenture, pros and cons, please.  Also, how is their platform called Shine?  Thank you.
deventure
I work for them. I don't know about the shine platform. Very nice people to work for. No incentives for high line counts. Pay for regular transcription is good but not so good for editing. Pretty easy to get lines required because of great accounts.
DeVenture
Funny, I took the test and passed, called and had interview, and I haven't heard anything ... pretty crappy!
DeVenture
Yeah, that was my post about the company I work for. It just disappeared. This company has lots of work and would love to hire good MTs out there looking for a job. Great benefits, great management, PTO, paychecks always on time and correct.
DeVenture

Anyone have info on this company? Please? I am really looking to switch.  Anything good or bad.


DeVenture

Has anybody had any experiece with this company?  They just offered me 9 cpl to start if I do 175 lph. 


DeVenture
Anybody out there with any information about DeVenture?   I would really appreciate any input you could give me, good or bad.  Thanks!  
DeVenture
Hello.  I would like some info on DeVenture good and bad from someone who works there or has worked there.  I much appreciate it. 
DeVenture
Does anyone work or have worked for DeVenture recently?  I am considering applying with them but really would like some input first.  Thanks. 
Anyone know about DeVenture's
radiology accounts?  Platform?  Pay?  Workload?
DeVenture
Any info? Platform, pay, benefits? Worth interviewing?
DeVenture

I work for DeVenture with EditScript.  You will not find nicer people to work with.  Amanda is very sweet.  Yes, she is new, but she knows what she is doing or she would not be in that position.  They are a great company in every way.
