That's because most of the posts were removed
.
I think those posts were removed
and the MQ board has a post from Goldbird stating that there is no proof of such.
If it is true, it wouldn't be the first time. Secondly, it wouldn't be much of a surprise since it's been all over the business news that Philips (the majority stockholder) announced it wants to sell.
As a current employee of MQ, I certainly don't think things can get much worse at MQ, so maybe a new owner would be a good thing. Fortunately, I have a backup plan and can just sit back and watch this one play out.

The posts were removed because names were used. That cannot
be done. KS is just the target right now.
Two posts removed -- same poster. (SM)
Two replies have been removed. One was by BDTD and it was followed up by KS Team Leader. They are one in the same.
Deleted for inappropriate content and continual violation of posting policies.
All the negative posts were removed.
I would have to assume it is because Davis supports mtstars although Davis has never advertised for employment here. They use the 'other' MT job site.
Pay has never been on a timely schedule and comes late no matter what is said differently. There have been many instances of bounced checks. Because of that and problems being able to have work every day, I left there. The pay scale was just re-vamped so I don't know what kind of money can be made. That'll have to be answered by someone else. Maybe with the new payscale payment will be able to be made on a regular, timely schedule.
Things are always changing so who knows? Maybe it would be a good fit. Good luck.
Posts removed -- please see message.
Please do not name employees, period. It is clear in the posting guidelines at the top of the page.

Proveros posts removed from below...sm
Posts below regarding Proveros have been removed due to report coming in:
REASON: is Defamatory
COMMENTS: If you could please review this thread and remove it it would be greatly appreciated. It is untrue and paints Proveros in a light that has already proven to be extremely damaging to our reputation, business and recruiting efforts. Therefore I again formally that you remove this thread as soon as possible. Should you wish clairification or further information to substantiate our assertions please let me know.
Please be assured we are not taking sides here, however, if it is potentially damaging we cannot allow untrue defamatory comments be posted. If you have verifiable proof, you may contact admin and request to post this information, but for the time being I am removing the posts.
Thanks for understanding.
OSI's posts removed - very damaging info
nm
and posts like these are why good threads are removed. Why does everything have to sm
turn so nasty all the time? Grow up. Some of us want real answers.
Since discussion about OSI cannot remail CIVIL on this board, you will now need to take it to email.

I removed the posts after speaking directly to the owner of the company. If
you have questions or concerns you need to take it up with her. There is one specific person causing most of this grief. I have CHOSEN to remove the posts, I was not forced to.
Prove it to me then. I'm open for discussion. You can email me at admin@mtstars.com

I'm sure it will get removed. You not allowed to job seek anyway, much less using an email addres
that stands for Global Mail Exchange Something about the word global always has India written all over it.
and posters who post posts to themselves--sm
as in either agreeing with or disagreeing with, just to get the flames higher. There is one below who did just that, just to see who would agree with someone who was flaming her for being hard on *whiners*, but she outed herself and admitted she had done it just to get *credit due her*. I think we should all be *registered* under a forum name, so that when we post, it will not be quite so anonymous anymore and potentially stop a lot of the incessant picking on of other posters and their opinions. and this is just my opinion. This is the only board I have ever frequented where a person is allowed to post under any such name they want, and cause such havoc. jmo.
Posts about unions - For All Posters and Readers
Posters placing threads and replies about unions are expected to follow the same guidelines and policies that all other posters follow. Making derrogatory statements about MTStars while utilizing its resources is not going to be tolerated. Encouraging posters in practices that are not advisable for MTStars posters is not going to be tolerated, either.
MTStars allows you to discuss your topics on the Company and Main boards but each poster must still be appropriate. Posts with inappropriate information will be removed; posters who engage inappropriately may be banned. There are no special circumstances either way for those discussing the union topics than any other topic on MTStars' boards.
MTStars Team
Yes, but they don't know posters email addresses. The only way
they would know is if the poster replied back to them.
If 10 people vote to have post removed it is removed
automatically. Look near the bottom of this post and click on the blue vote/moderate and go from there. I've already voted, so need 9 more. This person does need to be banned though and as they represent themselves as being SS management, then SS should also be banned.
Thank you all for private email and posts
Thank you all for the private email and the posts here. Better to be informed. I need to stay where I am for the time being. Not ready to make the leap to voice recognition editing yet and, of course, other factors and problems that exist with All Type that I do not have where I am currently.
Thanks again.

There was some discussion of VR
last fall before I left due to a constant lack of work. At that time, the plan was to not cut the cpl rate.
I hung in there with them for 6 months, but they seemed to be overhiring. It
looks like I got out in time, but this is not good news.
will look for the discussion

There was a discussion about this
1-2 weeks ago and someone offered a way to figure it out - some kind of formula.... at least it is a 55 character line!!
Since the OSI discussion below
anyone care to share if OSi has improved. I tested with them and scored very high and hopefully will be hearing from them soon. Would like to know if the platform is MT friendly/how hard to make production? I'm not interested in benefits and I assume the rate is what is considered standard with most companies - just need to know if I can sit down, work and be as productive as possible. TIA
Discussion/arguments. (SM)
If you want to discuss or argue your post being edited or removed, take it to e-mail.

TKU very much. I had seen the newer discussion,
but hit server errors when I tried to go back to May, so had not seen the older link. Now that one has me reconsidering.
Re: MT supervisor discussion below...sm
I was an MTSO many years ago and have been an IC with my own accounts ever since. I'm curious exactly what an MT supervisor does?
you are missing that the discussion
was also about signing the agreement that we would not bring the company to arbitration...as in agreeing never to sue them.
Per discussion this board. Even if never provides it,

Not only is there ridiculous discussion
there is also a lot of thinly-veiled shilling for people to work cheaply for Proveros......
Fantastic Discussion
I really appreciate all your replies and this discussion as a whole. It's helped shed some light on things.
What I'd really like to see is some kind of checklist that we could all go by to ensure that we are ICs, that the businesses are not trying to slide around any laws, and that we're treated the way we should be treated. Something that is MT specific, uncomplicated, and clear-cut for both sides.
I'm afraid I don't have the knowledge (or experience, especially) to put something like that together. But I sure would help any way I can.
I'd like to get together an action committee of some sort to straighten this out with businesses that are reported to be guilty of stress fracturing these laws. That would probably be less painful for all involved, but still achieve the desirable outcome.
In addition, something like this would really help empower MTs who don't understand the importance of what being an independent contractor means.
Empowerment through education and all that. It's a good thing. I think, as a whole, most MTs just don't know what they don't know - and go by rumors and rumors of rumors on internet forums. It's what I was guilty of for so, so long.
This is a DISCUSSION board...
How much stock do you think people take in postings here? You take this board WAAAYYY too seriously and assign it powers that it simply does not have.

Ad has been removed. Thank you.

Why where they removed? nm
Their ad has been removed.

The CLK job has been removed as we do not allow
job posts advertising pay of less than .05 cpl. Even for a new MT, anything less than .05 cpl is entirely too low even as a learning wage. We welcomed the company to repost offering .05 cpl as a learning wage of pay.
Removed. NM

It's been removed. Thanks!!!!! nm

No, it isn't. It's been removed. ---nm
I would like to know why it was removed also. nm

These have been removed.
You can always email one of the moderators with the URL for something like this.

I removed the job ad. SM
I don't believe it is legitimate for several reasons including the fact it mentions benefits for ICs (ICs do not receive insurance benefits or any benefits) and they ask for money up front for background checks. You should not have to pay to interview or work for any company advertising here.

Shouldn't be a year old there was just a discussion the other day.

Won't let me register for the discussion board
nm
I would open the discussion by calmly
asking what the procedure is for assigning work. If you don't get the info you need, ask if there are any other accounts available which will enable you to be more productive. If you are working in an atmosphere where you are afraid to ask questions, it sounds like the wrong job and you might need a change. Good luck.
I asked the same question in a discussion about MDI-MD
further below and someone told me when they were hired they were asked to work 2 Saturdays a month...if you scroll down there are some answers to other questions about MDI-MD..Hope this helps!
