Do they have an ad up somewhere? Many places on old lists aren't around any more. nm

Wow, years ago. Are they still in existence? Some places with lists of MT services are extremely

Lots of us lost respect for QA quite a long time
Especially when no 2 can agree on the same thing. Easier to just ignore it and get on with our work. Besides, if we didn't make what you consider to be 'mistakes', you'd be out of a job, wouldn'tcha?
Lists and lists and lists of offshore MT companies and
some from here on that emply the offshore MTs. Not to mention all the wonderful things AAMT is doing over there.
Great company. I've been recommending this company for a long time.

Good company, lots of clinic work, pay on time.

In this economy, lots of places (not just MT)
The ground-level people usually are not cut during a sale, but if mid and/or upper management start making an mass exodus, that could be a sign.
For the most part, you won't know until it is a done deal.
There are lots of online places to go for MT jobs! Do

Not OP, but lots of other places to search aside from here & the other site. Most of those jobs are

Even the long time Cymed recruiter jumped and went to another Nashville company.
i'm totally amazed they are still running but i feel an implosion any day now.
I'm linking to page w/company lists (sm)
Do you think all the headers and footers aren't getting counted? Lots of places aren't giving

Odd way of doing business. Most places dont have time to play those games. They just get rid
of people and move on.
What really sucks is that I looked for a LONG, long time -sm
before joining DRC - wanted a highly reputable, not-too-big co. that was LOCAL, and that treated its MTs humanely. I'm very happy with DRC & had planned to stay with them permanently.
Really sad where people will readily list places they hated but not name places that are great.
What a wonderful, sharing group of people MTs are. :-(
What company pays 18 cpl? I'm familiar with most of the places out there and 18 cpl is unheard o

I feel your pain! I decided to shut up rather than put up and quit my company. Better places out t

They do pay on time & have lots of work sm
but I found it difficult to make any money there. They use a Word counter, which is definitely short. Some TATs they have are unreasonable. Because of the way work comes in, your work day could be stretched from 6 in the morning to 9 at night. I like to work with a set schedule, so it was not a good fit for me. They may have different platforms now.
Which is it? No changes since bought by Transcend or lots of changes? It seems that every time sm
someone says that there have been a lot of changes, someone comes on and says there have been no changes. Is this one person saying this? Obviously there have been changes, there would have to be with a new owner.
They are a waste of time. Lots of posts in
the archives.
Not easy to make 1000 - lots of ESLs or time
spent looking up addresses, etc. They kept you on because they can't find anyone to put up with the low and steady income.
Probably brand new. Lots of new graduates get out there and try to start businesses all the time. nm

Lots of people are happy with them, but you DO have to "clock out" every time you leave your
s
Lots of promises, no follow through. Lots and lots of internal sm
problems. She is recruiting heavy right now as she has a CHANCE at getting a big account back. Even if they get it back, they'll blow it again from poor management.
Frequent turnover, offshore big time. Read the archives, lots of info on them. nm
Need company with Lots of OPs
Looking for a company with lots of OPs available (that can support 300-400 lph x8 hours a day). Need full time employee status with benefits. What companies allow you to do exclusively Ops? Thanks.
Yup, lots of ESLs.. I like the company though and
after a while, once you get used to them, they are not so bad. Sometimes, I find the US physicians worse with mumbling, etc
Lots. Horrible company.
Sound quality horrible, dictators beyond horrible. Late paychecks, constantly changing ways to get lines, horrible management.
There are lots of things a company can tell from
Maybe they don't care about how you pay your bills, but the credit report also has previous addresses (as in how many times you've moved) and previous companies you've worked for (as in how many times you've changed jobs). Also, if there are a lot of delinquent payments, they can assume you'll be interrupted at home (during your shift) with dunning calls. Personally, if I were an employee, I'd hire someone with late payments, knowing they need the job!!
I have been an MT for a LONG time but
stupid old old Medrite and DOS. I just find the lines super super hard to get! My QA scores are fine, but my counts suck :( I keep building my Expander hoping it will come around but it looks hopeless. I am very discouraged.
To long time MGr no more
Mine was a chronic illness that has improved with treatment; still, I can see how HR discrimination might possibly get in the way.
I would love the flexibility. Where can I find out more about what IC status is? I have some vague idea, but no real idea of serious pros and cons. Thanks so much for your reply!
They did a long time ago
I worked at OSi a couple years ago and they used to have a supervisor who would tell people to do that but she quit working there. She told at least three people that. I heard they don't do that anymore but maybe not, she was the only one. They always had the disclaimer if you have line/time to make up in email's. Funny because she and I both work at the same company now but she is just MT at this company.
no, long time, don't let them get you down --
They're bad, not you. You know they treat(ed) us like nothings. It's not the profession, it's that particular company. Shop around, find someone better. FN's strategy is to belittle everyone and make them scrape for work. Do like me, pick up your toys and go somewhere else. Also, on the way out, be sure to get in your digs and burn that bridge. They do not deserve us. My new short-term goal: Bash FN and show them for the money-grubbing rats they are.
I have been an MT for a very long time
I'm 37. I raised my kids doing this on-site and from home simultaneous; my kids are 14 and 9. I worked long hard hours. I still work hard. I don't have a zone and I hop up and down from my desk so as not to make my body work so hard at this, but I make good money and I get to stay at home. I also get to see all events my children are involved in. I take a day off whenever I want, and yes I have my own accounts. Please don't be fooled by this 24-hour TAT. Most practices do not require that strict TAT if you have your own accounts. It is the online companies requiring this TAT because that's how they get their big clients. They promise big and most times cannot deliver.
Braggin? Naah... I call it knowing how to manipulate and manage my time to benefit myself. I've never taught MTs and have no desire; I hated cross training on-site and still hate teaching. I'm just not good at it.
I'm an IC, so it's my way or the highway!!!
That's a really long time.
The company I work for sends out the checks on Monday and I get them on Wednesday, sometimes Tuesday if I'm really lucky.
I have been there a long time
Pay always on time. Various platforms, not just Spantel, which is a little cumbersome but not awful. I have NEVER had work taken away from me and thrown in the trash after it was assigned to me. Management now much better. Seems wrinkles have been ironed out, which is always needed in any growing company. Very happy there.
Long-Time MT-NY
You betcha we do! Here is the link. I hope we are allowed to post links here. If not, the mods can take it down and I will apologize. This has tons of stuff made in the good old US of A!

Yes, a long time ago when I used to get
my checks mailed, now I always opt to have direct deposit for that reason. I remember the owner of the company had to stop payment on that check and issue me another one. It didn't take that long, but like you, we needed the money. Maybe you can ask them to re-issue you a check and then send it FedEx or next day delivery since this puts you in a bind, or can they trace your check and see where it is? Sorry to hear your news, I hope you get your money very soon :)
i have been doing asr for a long time now
i think one of the very first accounts to start it, so the recognition is very good on my account. Also, I speed up the dictator at least 1 or 2 steps but i do listen to every word. the only other thing i do is not use the mouse much and use the ShortHand macros for editing that are posted on community page. i don't mind asr. I would take an all-ASR account over no work any day.
Someone asks about this company weekly. Lots of
info available.
Its a lie, they were both in MT industry long time before they met

Ummm....I have been with MDI a LONG time
I know a lot of MDI MTs and everyone I know says how many lines they will do on any given day, but they are NOT required to work specific hours. As I said, I've been with MDI a long time and before that I was with Signal, which was also Dorothy's company, and it worked the same way.
I worked for MQ for a very long time. sm
I really loved working for them until the recent changes, and I agonized over my decision to leave. Now that it is done and over with, I can honestly say that I feel I made the right choice. However, now I find myself desperately searching for that job that I can settle into and be happy with, and hopefully outdo my 8 years with MQ. I definitely don't enjoy changing jobs.
I worked for them a long time ago.
Left in 2003. They were nice enough to work for. Not sure how it is now.
I also have known her for a long time and that just does not sound like her IMO. nm

Been MT'ing a long time.......
In the good old days companies were smaller and run by managers that were actually MTs and could relate to their employees. Now most have been replaced by managers with business degrees, little or no MT experience, and a corporate mentality. It is sad.
I e mailed them a long time ago and

I got their info -- seems to take a long time (sm)
to receive the first pay.
The hospitals take a long time with IDs sometimes. I know that the sm
account I am lead on takes anywhere from 2 days to 3 weeks. It is a source of frustration for the management team as HR hires because of a need and then the hospital takes forever. Not all accounts though. Some are same day.
This was a long time ago, Since DD was put in place, there have
been no problems. It has been in place for over 2 years now. Why would you bring something up from years ago? You forgot to mention that they sent out the bank letter to everyone that it was not a bounce but that a deposit had not cleared yet and the fact that they covered everything immediately. Tell the whole story if you are going to open your mouth at all. No work? You're nuts. They have more work than anywhere I have ever worked. What's the real story?
