At the top of the company board page, do a google search for MTStars.
Start reading. This is an Indian based company. There were recent posts over the past few days about this company.
posting help/searches
Is there a way that you can search posts by one person? Let's say you like the things that one person is saying or has to say, and would like to read all other posts by that person? I was looking for a help area or other things as I am new to this forum on how to use this forum to the fullest potential it has! Thanks very much!
The archive searches here are confusing.
But when I put 'davis' in the second search box down (not the top one, with Google, etc.), just to the right of the ''Post a new message'' button, I got plenty of results.
Just look down the page. There's plenty of info.

Seascript info? Pay per page for OPs sm
I have searched on this site for information on page rates. Not very current info. If anyone could offer their experience with page rates, especially for surgery center work, as a subcontractor.
Also, anyone heard of Seascript or have any experience with them? TIA
here is the link to company info page

Also, anyone heard of Seascript or have any experience with them? TIA
They are paying per page for surgery center work. I have searched on this site for information on page rates. Not very current info. If anyone could offer their experience with page rates, especially for surgery center work, as a subcontractor.
Do you read this board at all?
I used to work for MQ and quit for the same reason, twice actually. Those of you who stay busy with MQ and make money, my hat is off to you.
Read the MQ board....
more company-wide changes to come........My days there are numbered. Everyday something else happens that pushes me just a little closer to leaving.
Just read the MQ board.

You must not read this board very often
Otherwise you would know transcription is NOT easy money and you sit for hours and hours and have to work weekends, holidays. Even though I don't do it anymore I visit this board. After 10 years it's the same gripes and complaints. You will bust your butt for 9 cents a line and no benefits. Good luck - this type of work is not for everyone.
Search with Google box on this page. Much, much negative info

Has anyone here ever read the message board
It's pretty interesting in that some posts have been made in regard to stocks being valuable based on the MTs. One even said that As long as there is cash in the bank and transcriptionists transcribing it remains a viable opportunity. I wonder if they know all the problems with keeping transcriptionists transcribing there. I also wonder if that post came from Transcend management.
I read yesterday on another MT board that they only pay 6 CPL.

Racism on this board -- Everyone read
Offshoring is one of the sorest subjects for MTs currently.
Remember, however, that we just cannot tolerate racism on this board. It is your businesses and government that are doing this -- pushing for it, allowing it, promoting it.
Keep racist remarks off the board, period. Racism is hate speech and it will not be tolerated.

My advice, go to MQ board and read a while. (nm)

certain company. There's no reason for you to be rude, she or he is just trying to help! I'm one of those MTs that is fed up with the B.S. being fed to us by these we strictly hire U.S. MTs only companies.
Best read the comments on this board first!

if you ever read the posts over on the MQ board sm
lots of those folks didn't believe what they were told either. It just took a few years to really hit them. Now they are all screaming.
The poster has a right to post what she did. The other posters also have a right to post the positive posts they have. I am glad they did post. I just wish I had known all this before I went to work for LM, I would have weighed all this out and been more careful as far as looking for signs that I was not going to get paid, i.e., I wouldn't have done as much work the first pay period until I saw that I did get paid on time.
Read their ad on job board, 3 years minimum. nm
Read down the board back through T'Giving.

No..go back and read your comments on MQ board
they speak for themselves.
Just read the posts on this board from SS Management
It's obvious NOTHING HAS CHANGED AT ALL! Rude, stupid people running this company. That's why they have such a high turnover. They can't keep anyone! Hello! I mean, look, this is a good example of how dense the mgt of SS is: They post awful, rude, childish CRAP on this board and then try to tell you, oh, things have changed, it's not like that anymore. Yeah, right...
All Company Board Posters Read
I have removed a thread about Acusis because it was practically 100% absorbed into nothing but hateful rumor and personal attacks of one individual at the company and too much identifying information.
Do not identify people by initials, names or other descriptive information about individuals. Stick to topics about companies, issues, etc., but we will not be tolerating personal attacks on anyone.
While I generally try to use a temporary ban to get your attention for such posting violations, banning for this type of attack will be slower to lift.
Please be responsible with posting in leaving out information about others individuals, internal/privileged information, etc.

I know they read this board and giving them a heads up on...sm
this problem may help everyone. An employee gets taxes and benefits paid by the employer, equal to about 25% of their line rate, 8 cents a line plus 25% equals over 10 cents a line. An IC can deduct that 25% because they have to pay all taxes and don't get any benefits, thereby making their line rate lover than 8 cents, in the range of 6 cents a line. Get it? It costs the MTSO MUCH less to hire ICs, and then they want you to commit to a schedule.
Please - all posters on Company board read.
I just wanted to clarify something with everyone in hopes to ensure we all are on the same page.
I have deleted some posts that were correcting grammar/spelling, etc., as those are not allowed. I usually will place a temporary ban on a poster in order to stop them and tell them in my action reason why I deleted/banned their post/privileges and ask that if they will abide I will remove the ban. For 99% of posters, this works well as they were not aware that it was a problem or that we are serious about it, at least. However, there are posters on occasion who resort to calling me names and who rant over the morality of some posts left on the board and try to enforce THEIR views or to allow them to pick/choose which posts should remain or even to excuse them from their unwillingness to abide by guidelines. Not happening!
We do not moderate any of the boards for niceness, for ethics, for morals, for specific opinions. We DO moderate for name-calling (troll, liar, or foul names), for posting privileged or private information, for spelling/grammar policing, etc. All opinions are welcome here. Stick to posting about topics, etc.
I just wanted you to know that MTStars does protect YOUR right to express your opinions here - regardless of what perspective it comes from - as long as posting guidelines are upheld. This means that you may well find posts that are offensive to you - just skip them, leave them alone. Stick to discussing or even debating topics but leave the personal attacks alone.
Thank goodness that we do not moderate by any one person's opinion of what is nice or not, right or not, appropriate or not, moral or not!

Archives doesn't mean it is old info necessarily. If you'll go to the main company page, typ
JLG in the search box, make sure the MTStars circle is checked and click on search you'll find lots of current information. This is considered archived information but there are posts are recently as last week there.
It's amazing to read this board and see how many rotten MT companies there are out there!
What the heck happened to this business!

Only if you believe what you read on this web site. Personally, I would not put one ounce of thought into what someone anonymously writes.
This board is not to attack people by name. Please read about Keystrokes. sm
attack people by name. In Lee's defense, she has over 200 people working for Keystrokes now and accounts in a lot of different states. As managers, we have started taking on more of the day-to-day and HR and the clerical staff take care of the transcriptionists. It is a hard thing to learn as an entrepreneur but delegating is very important. We are finally seeing her do this, and things are much smoother. One person simply cannot do it all in a company of this size. I wouldn't want to own my own company for that reason. The hours she works would kill me and I would be divorced. The constant travel of this year would cause most people to take days off after each trip, but I have talked to her hours after she got in from a one-day trip for a meeting to sign a contract and while tired, she is still out there making sure that our jobs are secure.
No one was out to get you or to mess up your life. I am sure that there is more to the story than you are saying but I find it hard to believe that you were ignored. I personally talk to each person hired for one of my accounts and make sure that they have all that they need.
If you came during a hectic time and felt you were not treated fairly, on behalf of the company, I apologize. However, and this is not an excuse, with the growth that Keystrokes has experienced, there are bound to be hectic times and bound to be changes. I, for one, am glad that the changes make Keystrokes a better place to work. I hope that someday Keystrokes replaces MQ and Spheris at the top of the national companies and know that if they do not, it is because they refuse to compromise and hurt the transcriptionists.
Life is about choices. Mine has worked well for me. We should all help each other rather than carry around so much negativity.
I'm sure you'very read many posts about mandatory OT on this board.

I read on this board that someone heard they didn't anymore(sm)
I don't know for sure.
Just go to MQ board and read, form your opinion from current employees (nm)

Read the Sticky post at at the top of the Main board that I posted and that will explain it.

I read that post on job seeker's board, and it makes absolutely no sense...sm
Scary to think this is what medical reports might look like coming in from overseas MTs. Thank goodness I'm not an editor...that would irritate the living --- out of me. Quite an embarrassment to those of us in this profession who have worked hard over the years and are proud of what we do.
Read the archives, lots of info there.
