Have to email me privately
so I can keep track of who will support and help with the effort :)
Email me privately
There is no way we can organize on this board.
Email me privately - I am NOT management or spying - I am a legitimate MT with 20 years' experience and many years as an activist.
But if we let our fears of the suits keep us from even talking, THEY win without even trying.
If you will email me privately -
I will tell you what I did in your position after 3 years of going through what you are going through with MDI.
You never leave a way to email you privately
email roster. As an example Number 1, 7, 14 and 22...and the list goes on. Also an MT manager of another MT company on the list.
Good, sent me an email privately...
I am serious that I would look into this but only if I have true support...
privately email me, because my accounts are low! nm

Valerie, can you privately email me, too? Nm

Email me privately. I think we work for the same company and I have an answer for you.
I went through all of this about 6 months ago and if it's the same company I'll give you the lowdown.
Have you asked your supervisors why no work? Which account are you on? You can email me privately if
you want..
Oh boy.. I was leaning that way. Could you elaborate or at least email me.
I would appreciate that. Thanks.
I responded privately, thank you.

work privately
in my experience, working privately is the only way to be appreciated; the only way where you get a pat on the back for a job well done; whether it be a smile or a thank you or being invited to the company picnic or christmas party, a place where people know your name and know when they dictate into a microphone, they might say hello or good morning or have a good weekend, that they know there is a real live person on the other end trying to do the best damn job for them because they are appreciated. you don't get that with online companies. you are just a 'number' who is required to produce in 'numbers' in record time, again there are the 'numbers'
To those who have written me privately
I seldom answer e-mails generated from here because I'm never really sure where/who they are coming from. I will tell you that the hospital is a local one and you must live within a certain radius to work from home for them. Check out the hospitals within 100 miles of you, though. MTs working from home directly for hospitals is growing and in my area becoming the norm.
Because the site is privately .....
owned and the owners can do what they darn well want to with peoples' bizarre accusations that they just might not want polluting their business reputation.
TT is doing gymnastics to find decent healthcare coverage for its employees. How on earth does that get translated into a negative? And how is it that the company is nice enuf to frequently pay early, then people feel entitled to the favor as the rule, and sling mud when they have to wait all the way until payday to get their deposit?
Are you kidding me?
I have never worked for nicer people anywhere.
I emailed you privately about TTS...
don't even think about it.
e mail me privately. nm

I e-mailed you privately (sm)
It seems to be about 50/50 there. I personally have no work on my account or backup and it's been that way since October. I have talked to all the right people and I'm still sitting here reading and typing on MT Stars when I'm should be typing reports!
contact me privately, please!
I think that contacting the media is a great idea, and very important... think about National security; however, I'm thinking of something else. Let's get together and see if we can figure out a way to start our own company. We are the BEST in the business... why can't we do it? Contact me, please. AmericanMT@yahoo.com
I also worked for MQ and went to a privately owned
company and hate it. I am assigned my own accounts but can't make any money unless I work 12+ hours a day including weekends. They have a 24 hr TAT which I can understand but if a doctor doesn't dictate for 2 days (or more) and then slams you with 2 days worth of dictation I don't think it's fair to expect MTs to turn around all that dictation. I have more than one doctor and don't have a problem with TAT until one or more decides not to dictate for days and then OUCH.
Anyway I've decided to look elsewhere. This company also has alot of physical therapy and there is no money to be made in this field (at least not the way they do business), so I do not do physical therapy.
Depends on whether publicly or privately funded.
I believe that the California statute prohibits any facility which receives taxpayer funding or is affiliated with the state from outsourcing.
Spheris is a privately held company, there are no shareholders
I suspect this report is bogus.
Their latest press release says they are planning on increasing their domestic work force at the same time as their overseas one, to match their aggressive pursuit of new accounts. (Personally I think they ought to concentrate on servicing the ones they have.)
OSI--Would either of you OSI employees mind if I emailed you privately with a couple of questions?

Could someone maybe elaborate on why they are

Please elaborate...

Will you elaborate?

Can anyone elaborate on the
mean stuff this woman did? I have been in contact with her via email and from what I understand after the 45-day waiting period, then checks come every 2 weeks. Did I misunderstand that? Also, she does pay gross line, but I'm not sure 6-7 cpl works out to be 10-11 cpl as she has stated to me. Any more information on her, especially the meaness!, would be appreciated.
Can you elaborate?
I am actively searching for employment and anything you want to share will certainly be helpful to me. Thank you!
Can you elaborate?
How did you determine there was a discrepancy? If it's just the lag time, that doesn't mean there is a problem with 'lines being counted' per se, only with the amount of time until the information is available. I'd really like to know because I have not had a problem...
Can you elaborate?
Please tell us why .... tell us the positives. Want to know.
Please elaborate
I used to work there and thought it was the pits. Crappy accounts with very heavy ESL. Nasty emails from a VP whose alter ego was a typing cat (or was it a dog?) or some such nonsense. QA person with superinflated ego. Newbs promoted to QA in months (and by newbs I mean new to MT, not just new to the company). I could go on and on. Nobody knew anything about the benefits and I don't even know if they had a human resources dept or not. Please do tell how they have suddenly become great, and I'm not being sarcastic.
can you elaborate?

ELABORATE PLEASE!!
Seriously? Please give me some details if you don't mind because I have just started with them, but have had major computer issues and am thinking of throwing in the towel. Which team were you on? I hate the fact that the recruiter hired me for clinical when she didn't even know it was acute care/hospital work or she lied! I must admit, I have the same feeling you do. I have only been working for them about three weeks and it seems like three years!!!
elaborate...
You complimenting or complaining? OP makes perfect sense to me.
Please elaborate....
All you say is, no good...all bad and ugly.
That doesn't offer the OP (or any of the rest of us who'd like to also know) any information whatsoever to enable him/her to make a decision on whether or not the company would be good or bad for THEM.
Your post is of no value to the OP or the rest of us who are looking.
I'm asking that if you have any information on the company on WHY you say it's no good or bad and ugly, would you please elaborate on that?
What is bad and ugly to YOU may not be what others consider to be the same.
to elaborate...
Upon being hired I was quoted line rates, counts, etc. These turned out to be false and the recruiter informed me she was not a recruiter so I shouldn't hold her accountable for misquoting them to me. Their platform does not give you anyway to track your progress or verify work that you have done. You can check line counts but there is no way to go back and check what work you have done. So when my line count actually went down by 50 lines while I was logged off eating lunch, that sent up yet another red flag. And with the platform there was no way for me to go back and manually check each report. Lots of miscommunication and half truths and the recruiter and trainer will tell you completely conflicting things about how things work there as well. I took a job with them against the recommendations of many, many MTs on here. Check some older posts. Looks like they were right. I didn't stay long. Hope that gives some insight.
Elaborate, please
They just requested a phone interview with me, and I'd love more info about the company, etc. TIA.
can you please elaborate?
nm
30+ need to elaborate.
I love it there. Of course, anything that is said positive about any company is completely ripped apart by the posters on this board that there is really no use in saying anything.
Could you elaborate why? Low pay etc
Just curious as I was contemplating applying
It was such an elaborate lie
Oh, they told us the account was going to Powerscribe - but they totally lied about what that meant! They upgraded our hardware and software, made us go through training on how to edit Powerscribe, told us we would all be editors and even made us promise to give it an honest try and we'd probably like it - then the minute the docs got trained they sent NOTHING for editing, they did all the editing themselves! Nobody told us that would happen, we were led to believe we'd have the same amount of work as before, but we'd be editing VR instead of typing it. And still nobody will admit they are NEVER going to send us editing jobs. We just get told over and over that nobody knows why they're not sending us any work!
Shows how much all the faith and loyalty our team had really means - and shows just what they think of us!
Please elaborate
What were your experiences?
Care to elaborate on that a little more - sm
Is this the only job you've ever had?? I have interviewed for many jobs in my lifetime, some I was interested in, some I was not. Some that started at $20,000 and others starting at $60,000. I have never thought any questions were strange. The questions that you find strange are probably to weed out what kind of person you are, what kind of situations you can handle, etc. It's a lot easier, I think, than coming right out and asking the obvious questions. Heck, even Red Lobster asks "odd questions" during their interview process, such as, "if you were walking down the street and you THOUGHT you recognized someone across the street, but you weren't sure, what would you do or say?"
A lot of recruiters are generally screening for potential hires before passing them along to the person that does the actual hiring and has more information about particular positions. So in the incident you stated above, that particular recruiter may not necessarily have that information.
Care to elaborate, CC? nm
XX
Could you elaborate or e-mail me as to why....
maybe with your experience?? TIA
Would you, or anyone else, please care to elaborate?
.
I have read nothing. Please elaborate
as I too am considering them
Could you elaborate on the 8 cpl plus incentive?
Are you talking about production incentive or is there an incentive for being compliant with your schedule?
I believe I understand the differential for shift incentive, and I work mostly evenings anyway.
Can anyone elaborate on Keystrokes
I would really like to know more about their process. Do you test? Anybody out there know of recent.
