initials here. Their website might give some insight. The CEO and his brother own the company, but CEO is active in the company and he doesn't know his rear end from a whole in the ground and is motivated by GREED. He just kinds of plays it by ear as he goes and after talking with him you feel like you need hip boots and a shower.

Ask your STM's boss - we aren't allowed to post names on this board sm
or I would. Starts with L and last name starts with R.
Names are not allowed on this board.
How would you feel if you were an MT who was applying for a job and came to this board and saw a message with your name on it. Maybe she does not want her employer to know that she is applying for a job elsewhere....
Why don't you list the name of your company so that I will know NOT to apply there. Very unprofessional. If an email keeps bouncing...just let it go and move on to the next qualified applicant...very simple. Do not post people's name here.
Names and personal information not allowed (SM)
Everyone appreciates finding information on this board about companies. Whether it's good or bad, it is always appreciated. However, it is policy that people's names and personal contact information is not allowed, and those will be deleted. Feel free to name the company and gripe/praise as you see fit, but please do not post specific names from these companies. Thank you.
You're allowed your opinion and I am allowed to

You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post
will be removed. It was up last night and post got removed.
They're not allowed on any other board here either.
.
So we're not allowed to comment on anything
other than exact specific question asked, no more, no less. What are you, the posting police?
You're correct when you say we've allowed ourselves
to be doormats. I think we're ALL guilty of that.
The big question is, HAVE WE ALLOWED THIS TO GO ON FOR TOO LONG? Have we reached the point where, even if we all join forces and stand up to the MTSO's, things won't ever change?
No one knows the answer to that yet, as we all still allow them to push us around, and haven't yet started to push back.
The only way to learn the answer to that question is to START PUSHING BACK.
'But, I might lose my job!'
So what? You're ALREADY losing it. To India. To Pakistan. To The Philippines. And soon, to China. You're losing your job by being PRICED OUT OF IT. When your wage reaches a point (if it hasn't already) that you bring in les than it takes to pay your bills each month, you will LEAVE MT and do something else.
But what if you love MT? What if you're good at it? Just loving MT is no reason whatsoever to settle for being paid practically nothing to do it. Your love and dedication to the profession is something that your employer knows you have, and is taking 100% advantage of.
Post edited -- DO NOT POST NAMES. (SM)
If you continue to post names, e-mail addresses, or phone numbers on this website, you will be banned.
You're welcome. BTW, the other names I said to research are alternative
nm
Why are they allowed to continue to post here when they are known not to pay?..nm
x
You can't post names
/
can you post any of their names? nm
:)
Please post the names, it is okay per the (sm)
moderator, but please do it to keep other MTs from having to go through what you are. DIT has already been listed below as one that does not pay. Please, please list the companies.
TIA
why is OSI allowed to post jobs on this site??? SM
It is on their website that they have an offshore office in the Phillipines.
OSI is not allowed to post on the board any longer. (SM)
If you cannot control your emotions when discussing OSi topics, you will be banned.
I have deleted an entire thread about OSI pay because of the vicious personal attacks. If you cannot respect others opinions or state yours without being so vindictive, don't post here.
I believe the moderator said OSi is no longer allowed to post.

If D&L does not pay their MTs why on earth are they allowed to post here continually?
//
MODERATOR why is this company allowed to post a job opening here
when it's an offshore company??? They are looking for in-house MTs, and they are located in Pakistan... 
Wow, I didn't know the owner would get on here under different names and post
I guess that explains it all. My experience wasn't the best and I know I'm not alone. No wander there are lots of positives, had no idea the owner did that.
That may be but if companies can't post ads without company names,
nm
No forms of foul language are allowed, that's what got your post removed.

I think the point was to POST names of good companies for all MTs to see,
x
I have deleted one of your posts. Do not post names of employees on this board. Thank you. nm

No one will post account names here. Call Debbie or your supervisor. nm
To Moderator: Is Seroesh Saleem Akhtar allowed to post on the jobs board?
Your post is SO odd. 1 day, you're asking for help, running your whole
situation by us all, asking for advice. In less than 1 day, you have totally pulled 360-degree switch, to now working for another company, MQ is in your history, and you've got it all figured out. How did you come to this end result in 24 hours or less?? Or did you just feel like bashing MQ? Otherwise, your post is totally off on timing - now you're already a seasoned MT at a company who will refine your skills! In hours! Boy, you are good! But why ask for help??
Where is the post to which you're referring?
I can't find any that have the arrow
I'm sorry you're in a bad place, but when you make a post
others who are currently working for or are looking for employment with Medware. I honestly think you need to give at least a little explanation instead of doing such a hit and run comment. But I really do wish you the best. I hope you get a better job soon. (By the way, I don't think anyone pays too much attention to Wilma :).
Don't understand your post. I hope you're not sm
faulting the MTs who are stuck with dialup because DSL/broadband is not offered in their areas.
When you post something like that and sign it that you're not happy, sm
the bashers have a field day. I wrote a post a few months back that was taken wrong and by the end of the thread, it appeared that KS is the worst company in the world. To me, it is the opposite. I have been around the block too many times, and they are far and above the others out there including all the bigger ones and most of the smaller ones!
Things written on a public board can be taken wrong and can damage the reputation of a company or person. My daughter is going through a bad time right now because of a post that was supposed to be a joke. She's 14 and they are no different than adults when they see something to jump on.
If you're referring to the 20K-line post, I am NOT mgmt...sm
I make this type of line count because I'm willing to work on different accounts and work extra when the need arises. I LIKE paying my bills, so I am flexible - and that, in this day and age, is on of the real keys. Nothing is as it used to be when work was consistent and pay was better, but I need to pay the bills. I have a great communication with my supervisor, and that is another key. If you don't talk to somebody about your problems or lack of work of whatever, it cannot be fixed. I don't care if I have to learn every acct the company has - I'm going to do that, because it will ensure that I can maintain a good line count at the end of the payroll period, thereby affording me a better check.
The basic fact is that working for a company is no different than any other aspect of your life. If it's not working for you, then you MUST make a change. Complaining about something will not change it - and ultimately you will spend your life feeling miserable - and trying to make other people feel miserable, too. I choose the opposite.
I've been at a multitude of other nationals and, for me and for now, this IS the company that I'm happy with and with whom I intend to stay.
You can go ahead and flame away - 'cause while you're sitting here typing nasty responses, accusing me of being mgmt, or making negative responses about Transcend, I'm working away. Now if that sounds "condescending" to you, TOUGH!
see post below "if you're thinking of quitting"
that's the one.
You're right...that post doesn't make any sense...sm
How could high producers mess things up for the rest of us, when, in the past few weeks, we were offered incentives on most of the accounts to keep them in TAT by working extra?? And how could a responsible member of management even state something to that effect? The only logical conclusion is that this particular poster wants to discourage high production (on his-/her OWN accord) in other MTs to keep the pickings greener for him-/herself.
Post from Sept. says Need to buy your own TransNet pedal & you're NOT connected to the net

Try re-reading the original post...you're missing the point
Read that post below on hospitals? They're definitely good for great bennies! nm
,
are we allowed to go over the 150 lph?
No it is not allowed
You cannot post names, as well as confidentiality papers have been signed to not discuss or disclose by employees.
Sorry just saw this, was the OP. Not sure if that's allowed????

Are we actually allowed to say the name on here?
x
Is this allowed?
Why is this person shikhar saxena posting on the Job Seeker's Board? He/she is an Indian.
I don't get how ICs are allowed in MT anyway.
From the IRS website:
Permanency of the Relationship:
If you hire a worker with the expectation that the relationship will continue indefinitely, rather than for a specific project or period, this is generally considered evidence that the intent was to create an employer-employee relationship.
Services Provided as Key Activity of the Business:
If a worker provides services that are a key aspect of the business, it is more likely that the business will have the right to direct and control his or her activities. For example, if a law firm hires an attorney, it is likely that it will present the attorney’s work as its own and would have the right to control or direct that work. This would indicate an employer-employee relationship.
Aren't we as MTs providing the key activity of the business? Also, none of the IC contracts I have had ever specified a length of time. We as MTs are contracted for an indefinite amount of time. These 2 things to me make it seem like all MTs should be classified as employees and we should not be having to pay additional self-employment taxes.
Are you allowed to say Christmas?
Pretty soon, everything is becoming so politically correct, we won't be allowed to use the word Christmas anymore. Maybe they were insulted - you should have sent a holiday card instead.
But, no - I don't think I've seen a Christmas card or bonus in years. Boy, in the good old days at MQ, a few years back, we actually used to have Christmas parties - imagine that!
It is not allowed at my company
Grrrr
they never allowed me to test
They just called me asking how much experience I have. I guess it was not enough for them to allow me to test. There seem to be a lot of those. They want a lot of experience, but what about those MTs who can pass with flying colors and never be given a chance. grrrrrr!
Deductions are still allowed
Even if you are on employee status, you can still take deductions for your at-home office. I didn't think so either until my accountant told me that absolutely, you still can. It isn't as much as if you are totally self employed, but there are still quite a few allowed. The best of both worlds is statutory employee. That means you do not pay both sides of the SS Tax but you still send in quarterlies. This way, you can take all deductions for your home office, etc. Hope this clarifies it a bit better.
If they allowed use to use Control-I,
they wouldn't be able to manipulate the line count!!!
Why are we allowed to discuss MQ's
pending lawsuits but not KS's?
This is not allowed, the usage of all
reference material is allowed, but not asking other people for help with the tests.
Why don't you stay with your employer?
That's what QA is for. No one is allowed to push
