The best co. ever! Good work, good people, good pay, good bennies.

Yes there is! Good pay and good bonuses and good benefits.

Personally, DSG is a good fit for me. Pay is good and on time, sound quality depends on the account
and I like the platform. There is not much weekend work, although sometimes is available.  I get along well with the management, no major complaints.  There is pay incentive once you get over a certain number of lines in a pay period.  I work as an IC, so can't help with benefits, insurance questions, etc.
I'm with them. Good work environment, easy accounts and I'm making really good money. nm

Fairly flexible but they do like a schedule. Insurance is good. Benefits are good in my opinion.

For the past week, work has been a little slower but I think that is common in every company..some days busy and other not.


Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
of work.  I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
Strictly IC, good company, hard accounts, good platform.
Good pay, always on time, no direct deposit though.
Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.

Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
TransTech is a good company. Debbie is the owner and a good one at that! nm

Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
Adminstrative Assistants and VanBelkum. Good companies, good pay!

Spheris supes/QA are good, insurance not good; they offshore
nm
U.S. only, very steady work, some VR, good pay, good insurance, no PT, schedule. sm
That should cover it!
Things are not good there now. Think only hiring for 2nd and 3rd shiifts. Good luck. nmx

Had the same happen here, heard the same thing, good references and good ....sm
job record will get you better $$$ if you are willing to promote yourself, search like crazy, talk to everyone, etc., but I have never been paid a cent more for CMT, what a waste, and all the years I paid my dues to AAMT, what a joke, they did NOTHING to better our field, just took the money for better conventions, as far as I can see.
Good owners, average-low pay, good dictators sm

Send out checks the next business day after they receive the bill.  Only work when you want.  It's a nice p.r.n. position.

I know JLG and they are a good company with a good group of people

I joined JLG about 9 month ago and I am thrilled with the experience that I have had.  Although the company has been around for 20+ years, a group of good industry veterans who know how to operate fairly to both employees and clients have joined the company in the past year.  I followed my manager from another giant company. 


I have also worked on this account and it was plauged with problems from the start.  The hospital required the account to be implemented in a matter of days, there were technical issues and the hospital management staff was new and the employees were mad because transcription had been outsourced.  Personally, I won't miss this client but good luck to those that get it. 


There is plenty of work at JLG and I have already been advised on my new assignments


DSG is a good company. The sound quality is good sm
but I don't understand why they are hiring. In the a.m. was have NO work. The afternoon and evenings do have more work though.
Some of the offices were good and some not so good (like MQ). For the most part it was a
The owners were shady characters and they were forced to sale.
Good luck and good nerves. sm
I hope you do well.  I would rather have a root canal than drive a bus around with the rowdy kids around here, my gosh, they get in fights all the time, the bus driver has to return the bus to school.  You are probably from a better area, but they would have to pay me big, big money.  Good luck to you though.
I would give them a try, you hear good and bad, but mostly good. nm

Good for you! I have done that several times......Good luck to you. nm

I have a good ISP, good connectivity, but Enterprise
is just too slow.  Talked to the Solutions Center today and the issue was a third party ISP evidently.  When e-mails are sent out to multiple STMs that Enterprise is down or running slow it isn't the MTs ISP that is at issue.   I came from a platform that was so simple and so easy to get lines, but they lost the account so I didn't have a choice but to make a change. 
Management is good, benefits are good
As with most places, familiarity and building your templates is the key to lines. I never run out of work but, on the other hand, I said in my hiring interview that I had been through a series of good companies but where I was constantly running out of lines and so that was a huge priority for me, and they have honored their promise to keep me in full-time work. Insurance is cheap and good. PTO starts accruing from day 1. Holiday leave comes out of your PTO, but you earn 3 or more weeks a year (based on your lines typed) and they don't insist that you work it. I had Thanksgiving, Christmas eve, and New Year's day off for the 1st time in (seems like) forever! I would say, in all honesty, that the only thing I don't like is that I have to go to another page to check my lines but that takes a few seconds and is more of an inconvenience than anything.
Then be grateful you have good accounts, good MTs,
and a good system. Consider yourself lucky because most QA jobs aren't like that.
Good company, with good incentive SM
pay scale, decent health plan for full-timers, lower end for other benefits, well organized and dependable, good platform, good support. Very heavy ESL, medium-sized community medical centers, relatively high SR pay rate because it takes longer overall to clean it up. However--good producers who put in a good workday make quite good money here.
AllHealth in GA - Good company, good equipment, any info about this company? (sm)

What type of work do they have?  Any op reports?  Appreciate any info. 


MDI-MD pretty good. MDI-FL not so good. nm

They are definitely one of the good ones...good luck!!!!

not organized enough
I have to agree with In My Opinion. I have dealt with Linda Kelley in the past, and my experience was not a pretty one. She was great in the beginning, but then she left the company she was originally contracting from and everything went downhill from there. We hardly ever got paid on time, and I have a real hard time believing that it has changed, especially since I have heard otherwise from current people within the last few weeks.

I will agree that if you get your production requirements and were there when expected she left you alone, but IMO I need to get paid to show up on time, first and foremost. If she ever gets that corrected than I would consider working for her, but at this point I haven't heard that it is corrected.
they are not that organized
and do not respond or reply very well
Not so organized...
I applied, did all the testing, was sent all the hire paperwork, faxed it back and never heard another word back. I tried emailing numerous times and all I got was that they were really busy.. Busy?? I just faxed my personal information, social security information etc..testing, got set up for the FTP file transfer and then no one called me back. That always give me a bad first impression and disorganization is my pet peeve. I wouldn't apply again with them if they were the last transcription company left. But...to each his own, maybe you'll have better luck
Just get all your stuff organized while
you wait to get set up. I like to have a ring binder to keep all the account specifics and company phone numbers in, etc. Use tab sheets and label them. If they send me a list of dictators, I print it out and tab that alphabetically too. It's just quicker for me and I can write in notes, like, sounds like Phillips, see Filipp or whatever. Plus new ones. Look on line for address lookups for the state of the account or accounts you get (whenever you find out). I use the State of __ Board of Medical Examiners' sites.


Never worked for them but they don't seem organized at all..sm
I had applied and spoken with a recruiter multiple times.  They just don't seem organized or very professional in a sense that I would not trust them.  Their benefits seemed great but I had that aching nag in the back of my mind that something wouldn't be right with them - that it would be a disaster.  So I turned them down.  You may have a different feeling and it may work out but with all of the confusion and problems that I had BEFORE working for them, I just said No.  And, it seems like they can be a bit grumpy and not for ya.  You know what I mean?  Best of luck to you.  I know it is scary switching jobs when you are an MT.
Personally, I think TT is more organized than SG.
I applied for SG, got an immediate response because I had been on the Escription platform for over 3 years and 15 years of MT experience. They told me they needed someone ASAP and asked me to the do testing that day, which I did....and then NOTHING.  No response. My emails to them went unanswered, which I found rude. If for some reason, I did not pass the test (which was extremely easy), then out of common courtesy, they could have contacted me with a Dear John email even. I wasted my time immediately doing the testing only to be blown off. Very unprofessional in my opinion. That right there says a lot about a company. A few years ago, I did apply with TT, got offered the job and did work with them for a few months. I ended having to quit for personal reasons, nothing on their side as they were very organized and nice to work for. So, they get my vote. 
Not very organized. Had more than 1 platform to work on
I had 3 accounts and had to learn new platform for each.  I didn't stay with them very long.  Found a better place.
MW also uses their own software, Merit, which is very easy and organized. nm

500 emails in two months?!?! Not my idea of an organized company. No thanks. LOL

No. Expect good things, and good things will come

Transhealth is very organized, great benefits..horrible platform
Maybe it was just me but i never made it through training. It certainly could have been a lot easier than having to open up 3-4 programs to get going. I found it to be time-consuming and in a production-based atmosphere, this did not cut it. On the other hand, maybe others think the program is wonderful, but I sure did not. I have used Dictaphone EXText and that is way easier.
Very heavy ESL on my acct, needed a Cphone, other things. They were very organized in their

not good

I have worked for better companies.  My experience is not a good one, but then again, everyone is different. HTH


Hey, that's a good one . . .

Ya, I gots me a whole load of them thar kids. I dun't even have to work, cause all thar pappies supports me and them thar kids, all 7 of em'.

Good thang my no-good-for nutin BF is thar to pick up the slac. Fur sur!


What you also don't know, is that I have a sense of humor and if you would have read my post below, you would have noticed that I have supported myself in the past and worked 4 jobs. But you go girl. I bet you feel a whole lot better now that you got that off your chest. I know I had fun typing my post.



Good IC job. sm
I don't think that it's so much the owner being picky as it is the owner wanting top quality work coming from her company....I don't think that is asking too much.

I've worked there. Only reason I don't now is I don't want to be an IC. Good accounts, too.
You have a good one too......... nm
:)
Oh no....that's not good
I was thinking it was the same....thanks for the input.  How did you figure that exactly?
Good for you!!!! nm

A VERY, VERY GOOD
Like her very much.
