Watch your paycheck go down. Transcend does not pay the same line counts that MDI-MD paid.

Hired company, but sale did not take place, right ? n/m

If the company is Amphion, watch out! (sm)
I asked for acute care and was promised acute care (more $) but what I got was all clinic work, multiple clients, most not even over 1 minute dictations. I was disgusted. They still paid me for the acute care wages, though, because I was good. I left because of lack of work.
If it is Amphion, run.
Sale?
What sale?
i mean FOR sale
-
why do you think it's for sale, and what are you asking them,
nm
Hmm, WM has a lap top on sale right now
for only 400 bux. I just wonder if you can use a different keyboard and how cumbersome (or not) it would be to do that. I don't think I'd be able to type fast on a lap top keyboard
Rumor is they are up for sale
but I have not heard anything more about that.
If MQ were for sale it wouldn't ....sm
necessarily be a negative thing for the MQ employees regardless of who a new owner might be (same goes true for any company being sold regardless of the industry).
MTSO's for sale
Does anyone know of any MTSO's for sale?
companies for sale
What in the world are you talking about. I am not from MQ. I opporate a small company out of Michigan.
Keystrokes is for sale? sm
I was just heard from my boss that Keystrokes is for sale for $30 million. He was looking at them but thinks that Spheris will be the ones who will actually buy them.
I know that they are in the U.S.A. only. What will happen once Spheris buys them? Why Spheris and not MQ?

sell not sale
just before someone jumps on that one
Is that the same company as Transcend?
Or a different company? I have no personal info about them--just wondering.
Transcend and MDI-FL? Same company?
Are Transcend and MDI-FL the same company? How are these two related? Thanks for the info!
MDI-FL and Transcend, same company??
Was looking in the archives and saw a comment that MDI-FL and Transcend are one and the same company -- can anybody shed some light? Thanks!
Are Transcend & MDI FL the same company
thank you.
Are Transcend/MDI-FL the same company?
Is there another MDI besides MDI-FL? I am curious, since I turned down a job at a company called MDI last year (I think it WAS in Florida) and am now considering one at Transcend. I don't want to work for Transcend if it is a part of that MDI. Thanks.
look on the equipment board here also--always some for sale there--nm

aren't they for sale? (cut my messg off)

Heartland - Status of Sale
Heartland is such a horrible company, it has been announced that SPI has backed out of purchasing them for good!
Almost all in-house employees are gone, majority of my MT friends left! I don't think they will survive with all these employees gone.
I'll be sure to pass that along to the sale guy.
Ever feel like no one in the transcription industry really knows to things work other than the MTs?
Just remember.....everything/anything is for sale for the right price sm
No matter what, everything and anything has a price tag. Good luck to all KS MTs.
I mean the owner on the sale. The only winner here. nm
,
VR is example of great sale pitch, not way of
one angle the sales person is using.
Transcend is a great company.
Given a choice, which would be the better company, JLG or Transcend? (nm)

Does anyone know of any large billing agencies that are for sale?
If you are aware of a large ($1million + annual revenue) medical billing/transcription agency/company that is for sale. Please reply here or email me.
I am sure she was legally bound not to say anything about the sale until it was complete. That is s
business by the person who owns the business and the person who is purchasing it. She built her business, paid people for the work they did (does not owe anyone more than that), sold it and moved on. Why is it so hard for anyone to understand and why make it personal?
Haven't heard a thing about a sale.
Not a thing.
and I have prime land in the everglades for sale.

is eMTS out of Coral Springs for sale?
I am thankful that lightbulbs were on sale last week. nm
nm
I received an email from someone about Keystrokes being for sale - it is lie. sm
Yes, the owners met with the CEO of Transcend and went to dinner but it was 2 years and it was NETWORKING. They had no intentions of selling to them and when they informed them of that, Transcend stopped coming around. I work in the office. Get your facts straight.
I have a bridge to sale you? I guess its karma...

Is Transcend a good company to work for? nm
nm
I worked on that account with a company other than Transcend.
It was the worst. I was glad to see it go. Sorry for whoever got it.
Hmm. Transcend has a forum on its company MLS site....
I've never participated in it myself, but it's there, and it appears to be pretty active.
Just FYI.
"Was" is the keyword here! Up until the sale, they've been GREAT! nm
.
When Transcend bought the company I worked for we were told they did not do IC, just PT/FT... sm
so this is news to me! Maybe they allow different things for different companies they buy. I also understood a little while after the merger that all accounts would move over to their platforms, but now I am reading that maybe not all of them did with other mergers. I am sorry you all are going through this! I remember how it was thrown on us so quickly too.
Watch out for SPi
I used to work for MQ and started working for SPi before all the latest changes that really screw up the MT compensation. Nobody here cares about doing things the right way and they can make you work for nohting at all. Recently found out that one of the managers at MQ that was one of the reasons I left there has made op manager at SPI and she is probably behind all these bad decisions. DONT WORK FOR THIS PLACE. I have just given my notice and am moving on. SPI wont be a good place to work until they start listening to the people who really know what they are doing and stop listening to the people that will bring the company down. STAY AWAY FROM THEM.
oh, oh watch out
This is starting to sound like TransTech!
I watch the job ad looking or not and NO
they seem to be going down more. Look at them. Even want to pay less (7 cent)until off QA. We are already losing big time as if, we make even less until get used to their system, acct specific etc. I could understand if paid by the hours, but this is not the case at all. WE not the company are the ones who lose during this period.
Look at the ads, 7 to 8 cents. POOH!!!! Even saw 5 cents and recent... in last few days.
Watch it, LOL!
Please don't insult snakes. I love them (have one) and do not want to see them compared to these cretins. :)-
To be independent at Transcend, have to have own company established and federal ID number?
I guess that about tells it all, does it not? In other words not just the required 8 hour weekend but also you have to have established company. I wonder how many fit under that category?
Keystrokes is not for sale at this time, and there are no plans for selling in the foreseeable futu
This is a rumor started by someone for absolutely no reason. There are a few companies out there who have approached Keystrokes about selling and have been turned down. A few have been very agressive and do not like to hear the word no.
The company has been growing steadily for the past 10 years and has agressive growth plans in place for the next 5 years.
If you have any questions, contact one of the owners or member of the management team directly. They will answer your questions.
This is just another example of someone trying to stir the pot.
Not every company is for sale, at any price. Although that may change in the future for the owners of Keystrokes, right now they enjoy growing the company and improving on what they have built. It will be several years before the idea of selling would be entertained.
Your day will come soon enough! Watch your back!

If you are currently working for MQ watch out. (sm)
Lots of posts on another board about them requiring schedules for ICs and requiring full time people to work 40 hours even though the requirements for full time and benefits are X number of lines per pp.
If you work for someone other than MQ that lets you have this flexibility, PLEASE post the company. I only do this MT part time and need flexibility around my other job. TIA
Watch out. SBC just sent me a letter saying
they were switching me from unlimited LD to 10 cents a minute. So I called and canceled my LD with them. Back to onesuite.com for now.
Watch your back
Their ad says they want dependable MTs. I didn't find the company to be that way myself. You can do much better for yourself.
ooohh watch what you say because someone from
Diskriter will post on here as an MT and tell you that you're lying. Doncha' just love it!?!?! NOOOOTTTT!!!
