what has your experience been like? I got all the answers I asked for regarding platform, hardware, work flow, schedules, benefits, incentive, DD and paydays. Everything sounds good. Insurance sounds more affordable than other places I have talked to and they also pay for 12 hours of training plus line rate. Please only respond if you currently work there more than 3 months or previously worked there for more than 1 year.

Been offered job with TransTech..
does anyone know for sure?? Anybody work for them presently?? I'm getting a sick feeling in my stomach and have my resignation letter in hand!
Transtech, hands down. Don't know that much about MQ but was offered a job there when we got out
E-mail if you need more info.
I sure hope I can get mine today from TransTech.
Boy, that would be a God-send right now.
Is Transtech payroll being done in-house now? My DD is not showing up yet today and it always is.
I know payday is Monday, but mine has always shown up at my bank today. I hope they don't start delaying our paychecks because it is being done inhouse instead of being outsourced.
Anybody else see their's in bank yet?
And where did my work go today -
And offshore for no reason but to save money? Happy, happy, happy, very happy I don't count on MT for anything anymore!
Yup! Got one today and I don't even work there!
I haven't worked there since February! Up until as recently as a month ago, they were still calling me and e-mailing me asking me to work and type stat reports! The incompetency of this company just makes me sick. I had to finally call the HR person to tell them to stop calling me or I would report them for harassment as they were constantly calling me very late at night (10 PM and later). I have been gone from that hell hole for about 7 months and am with a much, much better company!
Work today
Steady between primary and secondaries, got my 1500 easy today.
Well I don't work for Transtech and this discussion isn't about Transtech...
and that is not age discrimination....give me a break...
No work today again. System down..
How do you make a living like that?
except on days like today, no work nm

I have work, all on today's date.

yep - Trinidad is doing MT work for USA today....
Any other First Choice MTs out of work today?
Or is it just me?
RAD Keystrokers, as of today, is there enough work every day?

Anyone else at Transcend out of work again today.?
Lots to do on Saturday and Sundays, come Monday morning everything dries up for the rest of the week. Overhire maybe or maybe the swarm of mosquitoes that blow in from the east every night?
Any other MDIers out of work today?
No work on my primary, secondary and tertiary accounts!
Don't work there, though was offered a position.
They do offshore work, though I caught them in a lie about it. The recruiter was IM someone the whole time she was talking to me, very distracting and rude I thought. They have a base pay, a shift differential, a level of difficulty of account, years of experience, etc., so pay range can very 2 to 3 cpl. I would never work for them.
You'll have work today, but not tomorrow.

I've been out of work 2 times today
7 a.m for 1-1/2 hours, and now. I don't count the 1 or 2 reports that slip in. I've worked exactly 3-3/4 hours today in my 8 hour shift.
There is lots of work today. Plus next week is still
part of the payperiod. There is plenty of time to get your usual check.
Sad you have to come to this website to try to find out anything, they are already out of work today

First time since July, I ran out of work today BUT sm
Extext has been terrible for over a week. I think it may be Extext. I had to wait until midnight before all my lines from yesterday showed up. I have been booted out a number of times, have lost reports, had it put in offline mode and my internet was FINE.
It may be Extext!
NO WORK again today -- mgmt, are your checks LOW, too???? n/m
Who is making the money to keep your paychecks the same????
Is this really fair? You mgmt people should be doling out some of your paychecks to us MT's who have NO WORK and LOW PAYCHECKS.
Running out of work again today. How are you all coping? (sm)
I have tried flexing and checking in every 10-15 minutes to get lines and then having to often make them up in the evening eating into another persons shift.
I have now picked up a PT flexible job that I do pretty much of an evening and my days off. I just have to commit to lines, not hours. Great gig. I don't want to endanger this PT job because I have to flex all over the place to get lines with WMX.
How are you all managing the low work flow situation?
My accounts have barely any work today.
I've managed 2 small jobs so far today. My account had picked up for about 2 days and actually had a good backlog, but then it was bombarded by MTs instructed to go there, so completely wiped out and nothing left for the primaries. And I see instructions for other MTs to come here for part of their lines again today as well, which means the primaries on my account have to fight them for work again. If my husband hadn't just had his hours cut also, I'd consider just taking a week off and getting stuff done, since I'm mostly wasting time babysitting my computer that I could put to more productive use elsewhere.
I work for Axoltol and have in the past been offered
a position with TransTech. I read on the board that TT does not pay for spaces. I don't remember from my interview whether they do or not The money wasn't that great at TT so I turned it down.
At Axoltol (work there and still can't spell their name but it rhymes with bottle) line rate is 2 cpl what TT offered me. There aren't production bonues, but there is OT. Benefits are excellent. Insurance is very good and cheaper than any I've seen anywhere. My DH works for an extremely large company and even his insurance isn't as inexpensive. Insurance starts the first day of the month after you are hired, so if you were to start today insurance would start May 1. Vision insurance is free, as is long/short-term disability.
They are rigid about your schedule. You get to set it, but then they expect you to stick to it, though if you need to go to the doctor or something there isn't a problem getting off. You are expected to to 1200 lpd/12,000 lines per pay period. Some days I have trouble doing 1200, but I do extra another day. Platform is very easy. One of the things I like most it shows how much you make per report, how much you make per day, how much per pay period, etc. I like to see the numbers. I have a goal each month and it motivates me to see the numbers going up. They provide equipment (even flat screen monitor). Company is still small but growing. They don't offshore.
QA is great, you can see corrected report and also relisten. You don't get to see old reports from other MTs.
I was worried about being more regimented in my schedule, but it has actually helped me to have more time to do the things I want to do. Instead of working a bit here and there I sit and get it done. I'm not tied to my chair, I still take breaks.
Can you tell I love my job?
Prior contact said you work the first 2 wks WITHOUT PAY, and then you're offered a very low
s
I was offered a position editing offshore work that
was also Surprisingly good. I knew without being told that the work was being done offshore as it was not that good.
If I were to go to India, or any other non-English speaking company I would not be able to do the work either, but then I'm not trying to compete with native MTs. If I say I have a first rate product, then I need to be able to prove it and thus far I haven't seen it.
Once again OT offered - no work for my scheduled shift at Wbmdx. sm
I think OT is great, took advantage of some Friday myself, but for goodness sake, don't just go off for the weekend leaving OT offered when the counts are WAAAY down. Can the Solution Center take OT off or do they have to wait for supervisors/etc. to do so. When someone comes on for OT and they give them blocks of 10, doesn't take long to run the rest of us totally out of our shift. Love everything else about this company, but..... this sucks.
That explains it, yesterday I had no work, this morning DS on today's date. NM

Thank you. I went to Walmart today, and guess what, they had one phone and it didn't work!. Go

Low work?? Hmm - check backlog page - lots of OT offered right now. nm
Are you on the ChartMatrix side mebbe?
Anyone ever work/currently working for Medical Transcription Services, Green Bay, WI?? Offered..sm
new radiology account there, great people to correspond with, but info is extremely scarce....have a few offers to weigh.....anybody??? Merry Christmas! 
That is a BIG problem at TransTech is leads assigning work, rather than letting the work flow
This TT MT just admitted to that fact. It has been very obvious, as so easy to tell how work comes into our que and then gets pulled out as fast as it came in and replaced with YUKKY dictators. VERY frustrating to us other TT MT's who take the JUNK that is NOT assigned to other MT's, such as this poster.
There is NO work at Transtech. Maybe they just choose special people to send work to

NO WORK at Transtech -- did no good to work the holiday for 1.5 lines, did it?
I am sure the office staff will share their PAID HOLIDAY MONIES with us who sit here with no work. This has gotten to be such a frustrating profession. I guess I need to relocate to Houston so that I can work in the office, too, and reap those wonderful paid benefits that us at-home piecemeal workers do not get.
huh? are you saying why not work at transtech? sm
Been there, done that and don't want to again due to the amt of ESLs Transtech had. i couldn't make good $ with so many different ESLs that i couldn't get used to them. so are you saying Probity is equivalent to transtech in ESL regard?
TransTech - what are they like to work for? s/m
Are you expected to produce a certain amount of lines per pay period?
Do they pay on time?
I have been offered a position but would like to know more about the company before I decide whether or not to take things any further.
Thanks for any information you can provide.
For those of you who work at TransTech doing VR, do you like it there? NM

How is TransTech to work for? ...sm
I got a job offer from Transtech Medical. Its sounds pretty good. I was wondering what the opinion was of present MTs with TransTech, how they are to work with, communication, platform, line counts, etc.??? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Never did, never will work for TransTech...
See my post reply above
At least Transtech allows you to work whenever you want.

Don't tell me! You used to work for Transtech!

Who gives a rat's *****. You won't be able to pay for a new car!!!!!! NO WORK AT TRANSTECH

Does Transtech hire to work on VR?
I am so SICK of VR I'm jumping ship.
I work for TransTech and am very happy there. sm
Work is plentiful, the pay is okay (there is a nice incentive tier), the benefits are good, and the management staff is terrific.
Good luck. I have ended up with jobs I hated, and that is definitely an unhappy place to be in.
I'm at Transtech & have plenty of work

Does TransTech have plenty of work? (sm)
Is there ever overtime offered?
Are all of TransTech's accounts out of work?

TransTech still very low on work? No posts lately.
Don't know if the grass is going to be any greener over there if there is no work, as previous posts suggest. Can anyone provide an update on that situation? Sounded pretty dire.
How's the work load at TransTech? Have there been
