Hard to believe they are recruiting. The newest sm
radiology MTs just ran out of work because they lost a major account. We also lost a couple of other major acute care accounts. They don't tell us what is going on, and it is really a slap in the face to see them recruiting.
Maybe on your accts, especially if you've been there awhile. I think the newest hires are getting

Refer to Sue's message above...
It is quite obvious you only want to bash the company and not try and better your relationship with the people there so I have nothing more to say. I am not, however, a team leader and don't intend to be. I have had a very good experience with Transcend so you will have to go elsewhere for your pity party.
Seems weird they would refer you to CS.
They are no longer accepting new grads from CS to work for them. They have done away with their Focus on the Future program and left many CS grads hanging who they had already accepted into the program. They say they will now only hire those with prior experience.
Any of the newest hires with First Choice having sound quality trouble? nm

The newest jobs here are offering us less and less! Makes you feel like so much trash. nm

I have never seen anyone so blatantly asking for someone to refer for a bonus!! You know,
the problem with your philosophy on how to get referral $ is you are SUPPOSED to know the MT, even if its rather remotely! Your company is paying you good $$ to refer GOOD MTs, as in ones you know! They don't want random employees trolling for strangers to refer - that's not the real basis for referral bonuses. If you love your company as much as you claim (which is fine), how could you refer a complete stranger who answered your plea on a message board? You wouldn't know 1 thing about them honestly. You wouldn't know who, or what, you were referring to your company. Sure, maybe they could pass testing, etc, but you know NOTHING about that referral. I refer people to my company all the time and SKIP the referral bonus cause its not proper to refer total strangers and expect $$ back for it.

Sheeple is good. I usually refer to them as lemmings.

Fortunately, I work for a company that does not refer to their
employees in derogatory terms, as you seem to do. I would judge, based on the above letter, that you are from from being the perfect boss. Obviously you feel you should have time to have a family and a life, but no one else is entitled to that luxury because they are beneath you.
I think you would be much happier if you packed your bags and moved to India and the Phillipines and ran your company from there using slave labor. I am certain there are enough hospitals in those countries to keep your not-so-wonderful company in business while you pay line rates that will ensure you keep the peons in their proper places.
I can now see why there are derogatory posts about your company. Ordinarily I would ignore such comments and apply if I were looking for a job, making up my mind after that point if it would be a good job for me, but your post has convinced me that I would never want to put myself in any type of relationship with you.
When people refer to offshoring, don't they mean the Phillippines as well as India?

Agree with above, not to mention all the docs' names they refer to

Beware of Helpful Posters and MTs pushy to refer
Regarding post below, it reminded me that I have been meaning to post something, but just have been so busy. It stemmed originally from the recruiter discussions of late, and their credibility issues at times. Even more than worrying about recruiters, please be very leary about seemingly sweet and helpful posters who reply to you on here and then send private emails about jobs they know of that can help you out. I swear, in the years I have hung on this board, and in the days when I used to be trusting and naive, I have never once been contacted personally by anyone who was trustworthy or had my best interests at heart. I have run into the really screwy companies via these supposed helpful posts, and these are the companies who don't pay, are very dishonest and/or shady, etc. I won't name names, but many of these helpful posters are well known, and also recruiters fot the shady companies with less than above-board business practices. I just hate to think of the innocent new posters, truly looking for help from their fellow MTs, getting sucked in by these unscrupulous vultures. These vultures peruse these boards 24/7, looking for vulnerable MTs to pounce upon. By the time you realize you've been conned, its too late. If they just happen to know a job that could just happen to help you out, chances are more than good that its a skanky company - otherwise, they wouldn't be phishing here for victims. They'd have legitimate advertisements on the many MT job sites. Also, please keep in mind that many happy employee referrals, who also happily email you privately, are simply 100% looking to make a referral fee. Their company may be a nightmare, with horrible conditions, but these vultures make up the $$ by phishing these boards and referring literal strangers to their company. Referral bonuses range from $300 up to $1000 at times, so you are nothing more than $$ to the helpful person, who is just looking to pad their paycheck, not help your situation. I know I was conned several times over the years, or at least stuck in very uncomfortable situations, and hopefully will spare somebody going thru the same. Remember, too, if a company is that bad that they have to have MTs referring and recommending complete strangers, there is something wrong, with the MT and the company.
Any recent info on MedTrans Unlimited? newest archived info is 9 months old... m
Has anything changed in 9 months? Particular worries are the invoice/pay time; one post mentioned 2 to 3 week wait and another post stated 1 week. Info from the company states pay is sent out 10 days after the last day of the billing period, but we all know what is said and what is done isn't always the same. Another concern is the platform; some mentioned it was slow and cumbersome. They have 2 platforms from what I can gather.. Are they both slow? It seemed like certain specialties were done on certain platforms, or at least that is what I got out of the archives. I really hate to jump from the frying pan to the fire so any info would be VERY much appreciated.. the good, bad, and the ugly! TIA!! 
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors

Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make. I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me. We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level. Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination. The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner. Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter. Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter.
everytime you post, where ever you post
unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site. There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry. For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
Post removed, you can re-post.

Last post
No, after I read a followup yesterday that said there were apologies and answered Michelle, I realized that and someone said to just get back to work and they were right.. even an apology was too much, plus it would look like I was just tagging along after JMO, which is what you are accusing me of now.
I just didn't understand where the posts went, it was odd, and I wanted to reiterate some things (the point I mentioned earlier, about seeing BOTH sides), but I see it really doesn't matter WHAT I say, you've already made up your mind about me and my motivations without even knowing me. Why am I explaining myself to you? I dunno.
It doesn't matter. Good luck to you and don't worry, God will take care of/deal with me, and I ask him to bless you all too.:)

WHY DOES MY POST
On Greenlight Transcription keep getting erased?! 
WHY DOES MY POST??
mine got erased too..I asked a question about eTransPlus and now it's gone???
Above post
Oh my.....I didn't know Wal-Mart had "greaters". I thought they were greeters! I am sure they are hiring though so you should do well there.
Why don't you sign your posts? Are you also the one that said SoftScript is the worst? Wow....there a lot of worsts out there. Guess we will all starve.
Will you post when you do?
Are you a SS transcriptionist? Will you post your acknowledgement of e-mail?
It gives YOU something to post about right?!
What else would you post about?! LOL
I like your post!!

To Can't Say: Regarding your post below about
Can you say which recruiter told you that Transcend was buying MQ?
Where did you see this post?
asdf
If you post their name they probably won't get any
resumes. This way they'll probably get a few, but hopefully the MTs will be wise enough to turn them down.
Another good reason not to respond to a blind ad is that it could be the company you are currently working for - or you were working for (LOL).
I appreciate your post...perhaps I used....sm
the wrong word of undercutting, but when I became an MTSO 9+ years ago......a national was charging 13-18 cpl to the client and so I went ONE cent below that, 12 CPL.....and I get the work, have had clients for all this time...and I work for a national part-time....
Thank you for taking the time to type all that....much appreciated!! 
And you might want to post
your message in reply to the correct message. I am not oops.
I have only posted one message in response to this person.
Anyone could post on here and say they are from
Whose to say that poster posing as KS Team Leader or such is not someone specifically out to do KS harm?
For crying out loud, people -- just someone with a mean streak and nothing to do can get on here and cause harm. And the reason they can cause it is because most people on here will believe any post they read.
Now THAT is sad.
sorry about my post above, was

I think they are trying not to post here except
Still doesn't make any sense at all to come to a public forum and ask these kinds of questions.
I'd be reluctant to hire someone who had no more IQ than to do that.

Thank you for this post!
Your post is 100% correct--disgraceful disrespect for the MT whose skill, experience, and expertise keep transcription companies in business! Unbelievable attitude. Thanks for your post--it is 100% right on!
