I don't think we work at the same place, but I have been working lots and lots of hours.
Very thankful to have a decent job.
Great place to work. LOTs of work and (sm)
as the other poster noted, somewhat flexible. Make your lines and they pretty much leave you be. Communication is great, QA is great. The platform is extremely easy. There's plenty of work to go around and then some.
Look at previous posts here. It's said to be a terrible place to work! nm

QT is not a good place to work IMO

Not a good place to work. sm
They screw you over and don't pay very well. I would stay clear of them!!!!
Look, I think TT is probably a very good place to work. But
There was a legit question about line-counter software at TT, and they are not addressing it. Of course it makes for paranoia. As someone pointed out elsewhere, it's a business, not a social club. Nice is, well, nice, but my lines have been cut to death over the last few years, and, yes at this point I'd want an accounting, too. I don't even think TT is truly trying to rip anyone off, but it does seem like a bad PR and business practice. If the lines are calculated correctly, why not fix it so it's transparent and it's a win/win for everyone?
It IS bringing back some bad memories from the Q, when things were really exploding with some very serious, valid issues and posters were belittled when they tried to point them out. It is an awful thing to be invalidated by your peers.
There are some at TT who seem like they ARE being very petty and need a reality check, and there are some who seem that they have been so wounded elsewhere that they would forgive any MTSO anything just so someone will be nice to them. Like any service (and any forum), there will be nay-sayers and there will be cheerleaders, and the truth will be somewhere in the middle.
I think KS is still a good place to work. They
have 4 different platforms that I know of. I think how much you like an account depends on what you worked on before coming to KS, how bad the company was you came from, what your expectations are of the company/account, etc. If you came from SPI, MQ, or OSi (where things seem to be horrendous based on posts) then KS is probably the best place in the world.
While it isn't the place I think I'll end my career, I would still recommend them.
good place to work
I am an IC and have worked for them for about 4 years. It was much better when it was MDI. They were much nicer and easy to work for. Now it seems money is the main objective (theirs). They always pay on time and live up to their part of the bargain as far as I know. The IC's are treated like step-children or worse now. We used to at least get a Christmas card, but no more. Nada. Hope this helps someone make up his/her mind. There are probably none much better.
good place to work?
pay, benes, etc?
Deventure is not a good place to work
QED pays weekly. Not a great place to work though; neither is Deventure.
Amphion just seemed like a good place to work
I don't like to job hop and between the 2 Amphion seemed better but I have misgivings now and afraid I will be let go. Do they let people go if they don't meet the line requirements?
DTS is not a good place to work. Very unorganized. sm
They have offices in Nashville and Carlsbad, I know. I was all hyped to work for them but it was such a disappointment. They kept losing my paperwork and were adamant about your hours worked. The recruiter was horrible, but now they have the former SPI recruiter, so who knows? The manager was ridiculous. Not far, very nasty tempered.
Very good place to work. When I worked there
I was paid $0.10 Canadian per line with spaces. That was before the US dollar went below the Canadian dollar. I think they hire mostly US MT's as there aren't enough in Canada. I think you can also get employee status there. Great bunch of people. I would highly recommend them.
Wow...sounds like a good place to work.
Sounds like they made it worthwhile.
Is Proveros a good place to work?
Does anybody think this is a good company to work for? Are they worth putting in a long term investment of time? Do they pay fair and on time? Good/bad accounts, run out of work? I was just wondering if anyone had any information and//or thoughts to share.
Seems a pretty good place to work. SM
I do sometimes run out of work. So far, I only have 2 accts, but it seems when my primary is out, so is my secondary, so I'll be trying to pick up more accts. Compared to my past work, I do not find that they have high ESL, pretty normal. I am a level 4. I think they may have 5 levels. Pay seems okay, even better than most. Good luck.
Any suggestions for a good place to work?
Does anyone have any suggestions concerning a good place to work for a Transcriptionist with 13 years of experience? This is my 4th day out of work this week - my company is now outsourcing to India, and USA-based transcriptionists are apparently being forced out by attrition. Any suggestions appreciated - thanks in advance.
It sounds like a good place to work..
which is why they are at the top of my very short list. I also am a long-time MQer and the thought of leaving is a little depressing, but it has gotten to the point where I have no choice. p.s. Glad to hear you were treated well, and that everyone is doing okay. : )
Agreed. It's a good place to work. nm

Webmedx is a good place to work and has PT as well as FT. sm
Good luck in your search.
YOG before MQ -- lots of work and good income back then. nm

MDI is a good place to work. Depending on what account you get.... see msg
Some accounts are slightly overstaffed and there is less work but I know other accounts are swamped. Their benefits are comparable to other companies. Line count is reasonable and I like working there. The staff is really nice. Just like every company, what works for someone else may not work for you etc.. so go with your best judgement. They have been good to me so that is all I can speak for. Can I ask who else has offered you a job??
Dean Clinic - Not a good place to work. sm
The department supervisor treats employees like dirt, unless you jump the minute she screams or threatens you. They are making things extremely difficult for the long-time people so they quit, and don't have to pay benefits. Quite a few already have since the first of the year. Anyone thinking about going in there had better turn and run fast, no matter what you may be promised. It's not a good place to work.
Well, I HOPE they're a good place to work...
... since I worked for TRS and thus got acquired by Transcend when TRS did.
Interestingly... when I was job-hunting about 7 months ago, I basically read every entry in the MT Companies section of another forum (M T Chat)looking for companies that got good reviews. Because it got very good reviews there, Transcend was the second-to-last company I applied to, just before TRS. At that time, Transcend was only testing for acute care (my 36 years of clinical in multiple specialties wasn't good enough, I guess) so they told me no thanks. And now they've got me anyway.
I am still reserving judgment because the merger only happened 2 weeks ago; and I am still working on my same accounts, under the same supervisors, on the same platform, so there have been no visible changes as yet....
Lots and lots of posts in the archives.
Good company, lots of clinic work, pay on time.

I worked for them previously. Very good, growing co., wonderful MTSO, average pay but lots of work.
xxxxx
How are the MW accts that use the ExText? Good sound? Lots of work? Acute care or clinic? Thx. nm

Horrible place. Check the archives, lots of info there.
Good & bad posts in the past. Must work 1 Sat. a month. Supposed to be gross line pay. Some days
s
Uh, look at the posts below. Lots of MTs have their packets. nm

They offshore. Lots of posts about
their poor or lack of communication. Their pay scale is weird, depends on shift, year's experience, CMT, account, etc. I talked with 2 different people when interviewing, recruiter was not honest with me about the account they wanted to put me on, thankfully team leader was. I had previously worked on that account with another company and it was a horrible account. I can't remember if they had more than employee status or if they provide computer, but if you look at their ads on the job boards it should say.
I was told platform was DocQScribe and also WebCorrect was mentioned. Never used them so don't know much about them, but I haven't heard good things about either. Each report had 3 files, 2 of which are not voice files, but supposedly they compensate you 3 (?) lines for each report. Sounds like a pain to me.
There have been lots of posts in the past. Rather
than restate my experience if you will open your post and at the bottom click on related messages and you'll find lots of information.
Please do not place job-wanted posts. (SM)

Lots of info, posts weekly about them.
They offshore, pay is average. Didn't accept position so don't know about platform.
Do a search of Meditech on here; lots of posts! - nm

Lots of NM posts because it means NO MESSAGE.

Lots of posts in archives stating that it is
a Indian run company. Supposedly they have a U.S. storefront office in MA. Turnover is very high, which is why they constantly have ads running. The only good thing I've ever heard about them is they will hire newbies. They pretty much have to because an experienced MT would not want to work for them unless they couldn't find a job elsewhere.
I have read lots of posts here and yours, without a doubt,
seems to me to be one of the worst I have seen. You have just told another human being they have nothing of importance to offer to anyone. I saw this and I hope you feel better by posting because I think by far it is the worst as far as putting someone down. For the 1 this was intended for, I hope you take it with a grain of salt and do not stake your life on a statement like this. I would, as my mother used to say, consider the source.
They are a waste of time. Lots of posts in
the archives.
that place is sooo boring; who posts there?
jobs there. I think Spheris also has job ads there... 
They offshore. Lots of posts about them if you'll read
the archives.
Several posts recently on newest pages here & lots of

Search on the company board. Lots of posts.

You are gathering wrong. Lots of posts of people
This is like beating a way dead horse at this point. So many just can't follow the subject of posts. The poster you are responding to is stating the fact that this is JUST LIKE the fiasco that used to go on here regularly with Keystrokes, with management and owners freaking out at any perceived criticism and posting over and over and over defending the company, calling the MTs liars, fakes, whatever. Yes, it is exactly the same, and it shines a very negative light on the company name, worse than the original posting. It is very yucky to see companies posting on here. It does tend to validate the MTs who have complaints. Its just plain old weird.
Lots of posts recently, look down the board, search
the archives.
Lots of posts recently in the archives. Horrible
