I work for a national and have several hospitals in my work pool, each with several dictating docs/PAs/NPs of all different nationalities and dialects. But I do have a primary account which I absolutely love and which really boosts my line count on the days I get it. Only a few of us work on this account. I have also been with this same company for many years, have proven myself to my supervisor professionally and personally, and I have consistently excellent random reviews. I did not always have this account as my primary. My supervisor knows I love this account, and she knows the dictators are generous with normals, but she also knows I never have to send one of their charts to review and that I can turnaround a LOT of these charts per hour. So in a sense, having this account is a reward. I am sure if other MTs knew how easy (to me, at least) this account is, they would want it, too.

So I would not say what national I work for because I know there would immediately be several other MTs on here claiming that their situation is the exact opposite, nothing but ESL dictators and mushmouths, etc. Well, that's how it was for me when I first started wtih this company. It has taken several years of steady effort to get to this point (and very little complaining). For every one 2300-line day there were three 1300-line days.  

I empathize with those who are struggling, I have been there. It was a few years before I got to an income that I was truly proud of.  

QT is probably better than lots of companies, but they are on a serious downhill course.   I don't mind working extra occassionally, but we get it caught up this week and then next week it will be behind again and we'll be asked to work again.  If they are staying out of TAT it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know you need to get rid of those not doing their share and hire new ones.

Disgruntled employees are disgruntled for a reason.  Sure there are those who just aren't going to be happy/content with any company, but there have been several posts over the last few months where people have noted a change in the company.  Some if it I think is due to EDITED leaving.  She seemed to balance the work so that you didn't get garbage 2 days in a row.  Also L started her business and there didn't seem to be anyone looking after TAT, being balanced in the work distribution, you didn't know who did what, e-mails didn't get answered, QA problems, etc.   There was talk maybe 2 years ago about selling to the squid and I was told not to believe it, that it absolutely wasn't true.  If there is no basis to the offshoring issue, I feel they need to come forward and let us know, either way.   When you take a position you do it based on current information, if the situation changes I believe you should know so that you can decide what to do.
