I asked a question about a company I worked for, received 5 responses all saying the same thing, that we were paid for a holiday, which was wrong. I counted on it and was in a bind because of it.

You were just posting on her board
when she didn't like your avatar. ??????????? I'm not sure I understand this whole thread. There are a lot of companies that offshore and there are also a lot of companies that do not pay ever. It's a shame, but it's true.
How did they get your name from posting on this board. nm
:
Before posting on any board you should know the rules/
guidelines. There is a link on the top of each page that tells you what you need to know and one of them is not to post account information. No one is attacking you. It is just common sense that you don't go around posting account information.
Posting my resume on job board
TIA
It's simple, look at the job posting board.
The more ads you see from the same company, they are the companies to avoid. They have the biggest turnover and the worst MTs.
WHO is being sued for posting on the board?
Seriously is someone being sued for their post?
If so, what is the charge?
On the face of it, this seems outrageous - would appreciate any details you can share.
I think you are damage control posting all over this board lately.

Was let go from Zylomed because of posting to MTStars board
Just a little followup to my post of 10-14-06 post to this board. The Zylomed MT manager failed to address the real issue I raised concerning taking away regular work without notice or explaination, but decided to let me go today because of my post about their company to this board. So, because of my comments I have been let go. Maybe it's best to not name company names (excuse me, my tongue is in my cheek) on a board that's specifically designed to uncover these problems. So, MTs beware, I guess. However, I received many supportive emails from others visiting this board--one of those kind MTs referred me to another service that I'm starting with tomorrow (while I beat the pavement locally.) Much happier MT today! Feel like I can breathe again. This board has awesome support. All worked out well.

I may be posting this question on the wrong board but
does anyone know who manufactures or carries a computer chair that has arms which pivot from the position at each side of the chair (regular position for armrests) to the front of the chair which gives you a really nice armrest. I saw one chair like this recently, but before I could even look into buying it, the college that was using it put it in for their auction and I lost track of it. It was the nicest chair I have ever sat in and the one I have now is ready for retirement. Thanks so much if anyone knows of this. :)
Posting on the company board and companies figuring out
who it is. Okay, this is the topic, and the reason why I am bringing this up is there were at least 2 posts here in the last week stating they believed the company would find out or did find out they posted here and they said negative things and might get fired or did not get hired because of it.
How is this possible? Can a recruiter or boss actually pin down who is posting? What if someone says something and they are a troll and sounds like a situation which the company person perceives is an employee and they take it out on the possible new hire or employee and they are wrong?
There have been posts here in the past by company managers who say if they find out who is posting they will sue for slander. Then, MTs come on here and assume that the companies go to the board managers and get the IP address to figure out who this is. Even if it was a certain IP address, and they went through this whole process to find out, it could be routed through another IP address such as overseas (this is often done in the case of hiding identity).
Since this is an anon board, how can any company say for sure it is a certain person. Why would they go to the trouble unless it were given to the police or a lawyer in the case of attempted murder or threat of such?
I want to know you opinions. And moderator please feel free to comment. Wondering if our IP addresses are given out every time a company suspects something and if so, is this an invasion of our privacy since this should be anon. Or, is it that people are paranoid, whether it be the employee/new hire, or company assuming such. Remember to never assume because why? You make an *** out of u and me.
Thanks for your comments. This has been bothering me a while now, and I would like to get some input back on this issue from companies and from posters alike.
WAITING FOR WORK? POSTING ON JOB SEEKERS BOARD.sm
07/28/09 for new MTs, FT & PT, all shifts. Are they saying the accounts are UNDERSTAFFED?
Naturally, the new hirees will be gooing and gushing all over this board again about how GREAT their accounts are and how EASY their dictators are.
I JUST WONDER WHAT THIS LATEST, YET ANOTHER HIRING BLITZ IS GOING TO LEAD TO IN ANOTHER FEW WEEKS. Anyone care to predict?  .

list is inaccurate/outdated...
I have 3 friends who are CMTs and they are not listed so STOP SCREAMING WITH THE EXPLANATION POINT!!!!!
No, it's not bad or inaccurate advice - it's true.
If you make less than $600 in, I believe, 3 months from the same employer you do not have to report it.
I believe you're statement is grossly inaccurate
TransTech, amongst other numerous MTSOs do not offshore. There's a list floating around in a thread somewhere that has a rather lengthy list of those MTSOs that have not sold out and do not offshore. Sure, they're not as big as Transcend. Sure, they don't reap the enormous profits of Transcend, MedQuist, Spheris, or any of the other ones who have slowly sold out Americans.
BUT THEY KEEP THE WORK HERE.
I was following your post until I hit THAT comment. It's blatantly UNTRUE.
The site is very inaccurate. I looked at several companies and it's a joke. The information is
very old and not even close on some of them. I wouldn't believe what you see or base anything on what you see there.
I think the public would want to be alerted
that their ss#'s and all other personal information is going to another country! With all the identity theft today, whose to know what is happening over there?

I agree public outrage
I don't have the link but saved the article partial:
SPI opens BPO centre in Mangalore
Mysore, Feb.20-InSpinity (SPI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Software Paradigms International Group LLC, has signed a large contract with MedQuist, the largest provider of Medical Transcription services in the world.
As per the agreement, SPI will provide medical transcription services to Medquist up to two million lines per month within the next six months. To achieve this operationally, SPI will employ and train more than 600 new Medical Transcriptionists (MTs) at its delivery centers in Mysore and Mangalore. At present, SPI employs around 350 MTs.
Headquartered in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, MedQuist Inc transcribes more than two billion lines of text annually.
To augment its ambitious growth plans, Mysore’s IT major SPI is opening new Development/BPO centre in Mangalore by starting operations in incubation center provided by STPI. During first year’s operation, SPI plans to employ around 200 resources in the IT and ITeS field.
Sid Mookerji, CEO & MD of SPI, considers this to be a validation of the aggressive growth and productivity focused strategy adopted by InSpinity.
He said, MedQuist is a very important customer for us and we are pleased to have them on board. We expect to readily deal with MedQuist’s stringent quality and security requirements along with the planned rapid growth thanks to our well established processes and training mechanisms in the Medical Transcription area.”
V. Madhukar, Vice President – Operations, SPI, addressing a press conference at Pathrakarthara Bhavan in city yesterday, announced the terms of contract between the two companies and future plans about Mangalore expansion.
He said Clinching this large deal in these times of recession is a great morale booster not only for SPI but also for the entire IT industry. SPI is adding to its headcount and wants to increase employee base of our MT division from 350 to 1000 MTs in the next 18 months which in fact is a bigger challenge for us.
In future, SPI plans to provide Medical Transcription services to MedQuist to the tune of 6 million lines per month by 2011. To achieve this target, SPI plans to ramp up its capacity to 1000 medical transcriptionists for Med

They are a public company - they cannot lie about percentages...
If they say 20, it's 20. I have never been without work and I love it there. If you think that most companies out there are not offshoring, you are kidding yourself.
I believe them when they say it will never take the place of domestic MTs. They are growing faster than any company out there - read their financials, all public record.
One thing to inform the public - Another to
come across as stalker/unstable. As someone who BTDT with an MTSO failing to pay as agreed (but did in fact pay late), I can appreciate a fair warning about a company. I do disagree when the warning stops being fair and starts coming across as the poster having some personal issues that this board cannot cure.
In my situation, I read this board about an MTSO who failed to pay - posted by one person who seemed to be fair in the posting. I still took a position with the MTSO. There was incredible disorganization with the owner and my pay was late. I let them know that I could not invest more of my skills until the pay was rec'd. They got it to me and I returned their equipment. The warning had me prepared not to lose my shirt, but did not keep me from giving the MTSO a fair shot. I have seen that MTSO move into a more trustworthy category than when I had my experience with them and would even like to think I had something to do with that. However, I do not feel that would have happened if I had come across in a fanatical manner or if I had in fact done anything but acted in a way I could be proud of.
Just saying, I don't see that happening with this poster about this particular MTSO and this particular situation. Just saying, is all, that if an MT wants others to give fair consideration to an allegation, that MT has the responsibility of behaving in a way that would keep people listen and giving credence to the facts. People stop listening when the postings become unbalanced and start projecting that perception towards the original poster. Just saying, is all. Good luck with whatever the OP decides, but I hope that poster finds some balance in his/her life.
I agree public should know. I think drs. know but choose to ignore.

answer crafted by public relations?
It gives absolutely no information yet attempts to close the subject. I asked how is the work load, pay rate, etc.? Anyone else care to comment or is it a no-no to speak about this company.
you might want to leave your full name off the public forum

If it is a court case, then it is public knowledge

the posting is the exact same posting as you read on the
job seekers board. It is under state boards
its not on their PUBLIC web site, it was an internal explaination for the email they sent around.

There's an old saying in life, justme- a wanna-be public defender...
it's better to be silent and be thought of as an idiot, than to speak and remove all doubt. Now, you removed all doubt....
If your facts are true, make them public. You've nothing to lose and everything to gain.
How can you be putting your head on the chopping block when you are anonymous here?
Details have not been given in your posts. Please show us ALL the details.
Why would you be putting your head on the block by pointing out supposed anomalies in the raise structure?
Any recruiter can give out that information because it's the same for everyone. Any MLS can go to the website and see it. I have it here in front of me. I would like to see you defend your statements, because I'm not seeing the proof here.
Why would you be putting your head on the block regarding incentives?
Any recruiter can give out that information, if it exists. That information also can be seen in the job boards and on the website, as it's public knowledge. I sure don't see any out there, nor have I for months.
Why would you be putting your head on the block regarding enticements?
You say they are readily viewed on job boards, but yet you can't give details. Any recruiter can give that information, too, as they post the ads on the boards. They can also be seen on the website. However, looking back over a lot of weeks of posts on various boards, I don't see one "enticement," so we're going to need YOU to point them out to us.
If the enticement is the pay structure, then you're benefitting the same as everyone else. If the enticement is the ads, well, you get the same opportunity for shift differentials, the same CMT pay, the same benefits, the same production incentives, don't you? What don't you get that you deserve?
Also in regard to enticements, I've got to ask for clarification on a statement you made:
"...look at past and future ads on MT Jobs, etc."
Do you have details on what the company is offering in the future? If so, let us all in on it so people who don't work at Transcend know what to wait for.
Finally, no one should need to email you, because all of YOUR information should be made public IF IT EXISTS, and you shouldn't fear making it public, IF IT'S TRUE. Having people email simply allows you to privately promote your version without having to publically defend the truth of of your claims.
If you can't back up your claims, then please concentrate on making the best out of your own situation, okay? It's not right to make statements that can't be supported with facts. It doesn't help the company and it doesn't help you. If you're a loyal employee you should be trying to be part of the solution rather than part of the problem. Maybe you could offer your assistance on the quality council.
MedQuisters, topics from the Company board are being moved to the MedQuist board. MQ posts on
the first page of the Company board will be removed to open up space for other companies to post. Enjoy the new Medquist board set up for you.
Thank you,
Administrator
