these posts are over 2 years old. I have experienced NONE of the problems others have listed. sm
Obviously, they made some changes when they moved. Maybe they had an unscrupulous person working there before?? I do not know, but i have ALWAYS gotten paid! I certainly would not have stayed for 1.5 years if the scenario was any different.
recent posts...
Pay is late. Recruiter takes forever to get back with you, if ever.
there are recent positive posts; look below
they pay on time, direct, I have had the same supervisor and QA for 4 years now, they are helpful and nice, insurance not so great, large deductible, all other benefits are good, they have productive and weekend incentives. They do expect you to meet your quota and keep a close on that. Help desk is there 24 hours.
I have read all of the recent posts that came up
when I searched, was wanting more information as it did not answer all the questions I had, that is why I was asking someone to email if they could give me more specifics. Thanks.
Recent posts about them are VERY negative. Might want

see archives, recent posts not
exactly glowing.
Read all the recent posts about TT and KS but..

if some of those who work at these companies could email me I would appreciate it.  Looking at possibly making a change soon and just wanting to ask some specific questions and chat about your experiences with them.  Thanks!


Check recent posts about J&J.

It's EASY to search recent posts (sm)

using Google site search.


Ex:  chase site:mtstars.com revealed all the posts written about this transcriptoin company, most recent first.


Just from recent posts there are still ongoing pay issues.
They have easy escription accounts but I can't tolerate being paid late/wrong. Good luck!
Why no recent posts about Omniscribe? Everyone happy there?
Thx
Odd ... I did a search and most recent posts from 2006.
Thanks for responding anyway. Not sure what I'm doing wrong in terms of the search feature.
Check thru the recent posts here that have them running out of work. nm

If you've read the recent posts about them, how could you even think of applying? nm

I left there several years ago, but from reading recent posts, SM
it seems to me that if it's the MTs who have been there for a couple of years or more that are are liking it fine there and sing the praises, and that it is the new hires or recently hired people who don't like it and don't seem to get work or at least get bounced around.  Just an observation from what I've read.  HTH.
many recent negative posts on Company Board
nm
Recent posts in the archives too. Open your post and then near
the bottom click on the blue related posts to bring up most recent ones.   They pay 8 cpl, dictators are horrendous, they have very frequent turnover. 
Anyone have any recent info on Sten-Tel out of Massachusetts? Old posts were rather confusing sm
as to whether the company was Indian or not.  There is an ad up on another board for editors.  Are they offshore?  TIA.
Check the archives and more recent posts. Lots of info there.

many recent negative posts of Amphion on Company Board

Recent posts show them with late or nonpayment issues. Do a search. nm

Anyone have recent info on Cymed in Virginia? Oldest posts are from 09/2005- TIA


A few posts about them about 3/4 of the way down this page between the DSG & Diskriter posts. nm

How is Medware for someone less experienced but not just a recent graduate? Thanks. nm

There have been several posts about the WI
one about MTs not getting paid.  That would be all I needed to know. 
Just because someone posts...sm

something positive about a company it doesn't mean they're in management.  Think about it this way - if people were really as unhappy as they claim on these boards with any company they're working for then they'd be out getting another job - because whining here isn't going to change a thing.  Remember that one person's opinion doesn't represent everyone that works at any place - regardless of the industry.   The only way people effectively complain is by talking to management along with ideas to solve whatever problems they're complaining about.  That's true anywhere - regardless of whether you work at the local grocery store, bank, this industry or any type of job. 


There are plenty of people at Transcend who have been on the new platform for several months now and they love it.  Instead of basiclly calling them liars or presuming they're in management why not get on the internal forum and ask them about their experiences in learning the new system.  The same would be true at any company. 


Do you believe everything in these posts?!
People can write ANYTHING on here. There are some really hateful MTs who just want to cause problems and make others miserable.

I wouldn't take anything on this board for gospel truth, period! It's fun reading and sometimes can make you think about something but I would NEVER use it as reference or as a guide for my thinking about MQ or any other company! Please don't be upset by posts by God-only-knows-who with who-knows truth to them!
see the other posts
where it is explained. Pt in a nutshell is anything under 39 scheduled hours. Now you have to decide, do i committ to 8, 16 or 24 hour weekschedule?? Floating around when you want to is no more. But it doesn't say what to do ifyou sign up for 16 and want to do 20. You have to ask them that. It does specify that OT is more than 40 hours a week.
oh. ok. thanx. someone else posts as you
on MQ board and posts as if they work for them too, blasting everyone. just curious. thanx.
I can't believe the posts below,
the poster is just venting.  A good stress relief.  Why so irritable with each other.
There are still posts
If you archive there are still posts about them on here so I am not sure about what you meant by that. I do think they discourage from posting on boards but if it is anonymous no way they would know who did it. They want you to take things up with them directly but getting communication from them sometimes is like pulling teeth.
This is regarding those posts below....
I don't see what all the fuss is about, I heard back from them today and I'm all set to go!  There was about a two period where I didn't hear from them either and it turned out that they were moving from one office to another.  I say just be patient and persistent.
Not JLG but there were some posts further down or
now maybe on second page regarding their platform. You might want to either scroll down or go over to the second page

I always look through this board's posts when I am looking for a position. I have mostly found it to be helpful. There are a few occasions when I have read posts by an angry poster to let others know about their experience and I think that is very, very important, but would like the anger and rant left out. I have noticed that more positives and defending comments appear to be from from recruiters and others in management than from MTs.
That much??!!?? LOL! See below posts.

Where did the QT posts go?
It is funny that a company that has nothing to hide is removing posts.  Why are these being removed?
I have been following your posts and...
i think you made a wise decision.  you can email if you want. 
where did those posts go
I came out to review the old posts on TT line count and they were all gone.   What happened to them?
see posts below
nm
There have been several posts about them
the last month - all bad.   They are an Indian run company.  I don't remember the other details, but there was not one good comment about them. 
Why do all of the OSI posts
Other company posts are not removed. What, are people not allowed to know what OSI's record is? This is simply not fair to people in need of a job and fall for the OSi promise only to be taken by them. Please explain to everyone the reason for the post removal. Thank you.
and i e/m'd them already re the posts.

old posts
I know how to do a search, but my question is WHY???? Why do you feel it was pertinent to my question, which you did not answer. I was asking about an ongoing monthly charge and not a deposit.
There were posts saying
management was not liking the yahoo group too much although someone said management was posting.    Maybe it's locked. 
And I keep seeing posts about how they pay
so well - Ha.  Their accounts are horrible and at 7 cpl you'll starve or go crazy. 
Sorry, I'm still not sure which posts they are. sm
If none of those conditions were present, then perhaps it was just a server error.

If that is the case, there's not much we can do about it, so please do post them again.
Does anybody who posts on here ever have

a company they would just like to stay with for the long-term? This is a question which has been bugging me lately about these company and main board forums.


I personally worked for a hospital for many years, which downsized. Went through 2 years working for a service which fooled with my line count and benefits, and when I left there last year, I had a hard very year with services in one way or another not keeping promises.  Now I have finally found a position where I can say I plan to just stay put.  No it is not perfect. Yes, the work runs low.  But there has to come a time to put that resume to rest.


Is there anybody else out there who is deciding to do the same? I am not looking for pollyanna answers. Just another line of questioning on this board got me to thinking.


We are always complaining about how bad the pay is, how things are outsourced, how things are not the way they used to be in this business. I agree with all those things.  But I say I still have a job where as many are jobless in our country today.  I say I still have the ability to pay my bills. No we don't eat out anymore.  But with this job I don't pay for daycare, I can participate in school field trips, and I can take a nap now and then without any penalty to my career. I also don't worry about gas prices.


Post negative comments here if you wish.  Put in good ones. I just want to see if I am the only one on this board in the last 6 months at least who has finally decided to count blessings and keep my job and quit looking!
