Posted By: CynicalMT on 2009-09-01
In Reply to: offshore to India, it's OFFSHORE (off shore), not outsource to India. - what is Transcent? come on. n/m
It falls under the umbrella of outsourcing, and offshoring is a specific type of outsourcing; i.e., there is domestic outsourcing (kept within the country) and offshore outsourcing (sent out of the country).

Sent a label by Email??
Not sure what FOB is. So i guess you print it out, cut it out and use the label that way?? Can do it that way? Seems like it would have to be scanned by the vendor who delivering it.
If they send you a label for the footpedal, UPS, FedEx etc., just get a signature of the driver or if you take in somewhere. If you have the name of top person, I would get the email and send to that person with you problem. I believe you. Just call the main phone number, say you want to direct some correspondence, may I have the name of the president, vice president, perhaps an email tell them.
MDI is not technically IC
it is STATUTORY EMPLOYEE. They do acute care hospitals. Here is the site for more information:

Don't you two think you are being just as silly as the ones you label as "negative?" sm
If you want to say hello, why not talk via Yahoo Messenger, which everyone in the company uses. I saw your names on the company-wide emails, so why not just do your handshake there?
I think both sides are being a bit silly here. There are good and bad points to any company, and those who ferociously defend without acknowledging the bad points are just as wrong as those who ferociously attack without acknowledging the good points. Actually, watching this today, I have to say the good guys look worse than the so-called negative types. Your bashing of them is just as negative as the things you accuse them of being.
I myself am Switzerland in all of this. It is just a paycheck. I don't care if it comes from India or Des Moines, Iowa. If it is accurate, on-time, and a decent wage, I am happy. I don't have a problem with the headquarters being in India. The people there are sweet and kind and do their jobs professionally -- what more could you ask?
I have the week off, but I think ALL of you should get back to work and quit trying to one up each other. Just my opinion ... a**es and opinions .. we all have them. 
I don't generally label cheerleaders as Management, but that has to be one. NM

technically, after the closing, then employees not ICs
so might want to rethink
Do not outsource to India, outsource a small amount to Phillipines.

Thanks for explaining. I tend to be a bit technically challenged in that area. sm
If I ever get a life, I might give it a try. Somehow a picture of an old woman hunched over her keyboard, listing hobbies as eat, sleep,and work, probably is not newsworthy .. LOL. 
no, isn't 2 week vacation but technically is. new acct isn't ready on go live date so we get

JLG outsource???
Anyone know if JLG outsources? I asked their HR person and so far have received no response. Very suspicious about that.
JLG Outsource???
They have advertised on boards using their "Vianeta or Arrendale" software. If you search Google for Arrendale software, you will see that Arrendale and CBAY formed a partnership.... Check past posts on CBAY. What do you think?
Do they outsource?

MDI does not outsource but they do
overhire. Not a bad company overall, just have to fight for work a lot of the time.
Outsource
Do they outsource now? If not, they're planning it, big time. Companies need excuses to outsource, main one being they can't meet demand. Yeah, drop that line req down, that'll do it! Care to divulge company name?
they outsource and their pay is low nm

Outsource
MDI does not outsource but they were bought by Transcend who has been sending work to Florida. Just an FYI.
Not an outsource
No everyone there worked from home. They also used Transcend for overflows. It was a good place to work, but dayshift was years away.

I am 99.9% sure they do not outsource. nm
Boy do they outsource
The offshores get preference for the work. Some of the managers are just awful, especially one in particular. I mean downright nasty and not even available for questions. Big shakeups lately.
if they did HAVE to outsource all, tho,
or even a ton, it would be a QA nightmare and clients would finally have to ask - WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE?
sweeeet
They do more than outsource, as they have
an office in India.
No, they do not outsource.

They do outsource, don't let them kid you

no no NO! TT does NOT outsource sm
There is, however, an Indian company with a similar name that IS doing business in India.
I know it gets slammed on here for doing all kinds of things and I have never heard a word of truth about Transtech spoken here.
I did not say that they don't outsource
I said that not all of the team leads are in India.
Yes, Medware does outsource....sm
and they make no bones about it. However, they are not the only company to do so and more and more companies will likely be doing the same in the future. Like it or not, this is the future of medical transcription...to get the transcription done offshore and then have it edited by more qualified egocentric jerks like myself in the USA.
I think you have overstepped the boundaries of common decency in categorizing people who work for Medware or any other company who chooses to outsource their work. If you don't like it, you don't have to work there and don't have to associate with us, but it is a low blow to attack fellow members of your profession in such an unprofessional manner.
MDI does NOT outsource.. all work is done
on-shore. Transcend does outsource though (minimal).
Does Transolutions outsource?

They outsource heavily and
make no bones about it. They are located in suburban Nashville, TN and generally make no bones about their ties with Indian transcriptionists.
Most of the companies out there outsource now.

companies who outsource
Do you consider Canadians being outsourcing? With all the Americans out of work does it bother you that companies hire Canadians?
SPI information? Do they outsource?
Any info appreciated.
They don't outsource VA accts because they can't (sm)
Contracts with the fedgov won't allow it. Funny how the gov't won't allow VA files to be sent overseas, but they don't bother putting a stop to the rest of ours going huh?
They outsource to India and..
when the recruiter was asked, she said she didn't know that for sure even though it is posted on their website. When this was pointed out, I still couldn't get her to admit it. I turned them down because I prefer straight answers and dont' work for companies who outsource to India.
They outsource on VR accounts. NM

yes, they still OFFSHORE (not outsource), otherwise

Wow, that's impressive. Do they outsource?
Now I am very intrigued! I did e-mail them and asked a few basic questions. Do you have any idea what their pay scale is? I have almost 7 years of experience as an MT.
Yes, they do outsource to Spheris
When ATSIS offered me a position back in early November, the account I was going to work on was with Spheris and the company was fixing to leave Spheris. It was a BIG mess. Maybe it's a blessing I did not end up working with this company. The recruiting manager is so darn RUDE. I would never want to communicate with her again. I would not trust her if she gave me the biggest offer to come back. That company is so darn SCREWED UP! I can see why the keep advertising over and over again constantly. They are probably screwing every MT like they did me! I sure hope every MT that is reading this post does not even consider appling with ATSI out of Clearwater, Florida because they will be sorry!!!
Have a great holiday. You deserve so much better out there than this CRAZY company.
Do you mean outsource as in offshore? (NM)

I know they outsource to India sm
Whatever is not done by a certain point at night the send to India so that it is ready to edit in the morning. I am surprised they are allowed to advertise for MTs on this site, but they DO outsource and I have this from the current recruiter. They pay their American MTs pretty well, but on the backs of the outsourced stuff from what I can tell.
For the record, I had an offer at the end of last year, didn't take it because it is outsourced. As long as we support this sort of thing it will continue. The minute we all refuse to work for a place like that, the sooner it all comes home.
u can't outsource nursing, so i'd go with that

It is possible to outsource to another service without

They DO NOT outsource/offshore.
The outsource ax has fallen!
I just got terminated from my in-hospital job. I had worked for these people for almost 20 years but I guess it was ineviable. They are going to outsource to some place I think in the Phillipines. I have done some part time work at home but now I'm looking for a full time at home with benefits. Gulp! Anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking about Diskriter or Sten-Tel. I am best at clinic work but I have done acute care for a couple of years. I hate ESL but they are a part of life, unfortunately. .
Does DeVenture outsource?

Does DeVenture Outsource?
I don't believe they outsource outside of the U.S. However, someone else on this board might have more information.
