Well - as an IC, they can not guarantee you any

In Reply to: Sten-Tel contract, anyone with any info on their contracts? more inside - red flag
certain amount of work or hours - that is protecting them from labor laws and is standard wording in most of the IC contracts I have read, had my attorney review, and signed.
Second, the indemnity clause is in the same category as far as liability. No big deal. If something major were to occur and it was their fault, legally, there are ways around that. Not to worry about it.
They are a good company, pay on time, and decent people.
Many companies have those clauses in their IC contrast nowadays!
You can always add your own addendum to any contract, attach it, make a copy for yourself, and have them sign it and mail it back to you.
Good luck!

I guarantee it is not 6 or 7 cpl
Axolotl pays very COMPETITIVE line rates. They would not insult an experienced MT like that.
NOT SHAPIN. I can guarantee you that. nm

Then can almost guarantee they are lying.

A union cannot guarantee you a job.

I guarantee you I could type the sm
reports straight-out that you are doing VR on and I would make a heck of alot more money! VR is crap and is doing nothing but making slaves out of MTs and allowing MTs with little experience to do VR.
I have seen the results of VR on my own medical records and it is a joke! Lots of folks are ignoring VR mistakes just to get by and get lines and QA doesn't care. The bottom line is money, money money! Its not money for the MT or VR person either, its money for the company! You can bet your behind they are charging a whole lot more than you are making! They are charging regular line counts and you are getting paid VR line wages!
Anybody who thinks this is good for the patients, the hospitals, the doctors or the MT in general is a little off!
No CPL guarantee whatsoever
This question was asked very directly on the conference call I was in on today. The question went like this (to paraphrase) if I choose to remain as an IC or SE (we were told by CB that SE status is available), will I receive the same pay rate I do right now. We were told by CB that this - along with pretty much every other issue - will be discussed on an individual basis with HR. So, there was no answer, no guarantee in any way. How could D have done this? To not even at the very least negotiate this one hugely important issue FOR US, HER MTs???? to insist that we all get grandfathered in for our current rates. Period. I could care less about being grandfathered in for cruddy health insurance which I will take a pay cut for.
There's no guarantee it works, hence a crapshoot. nm

need to get my glasses checked. The guarantee for the
rose-coloring must have expired and now everything looks gray and bleak at this company. Glad you are as lucky as you are.
KS doesn't overhire, so there is no guarantee
that all those leaving MQ and applying at KS will even get a position. They have at least 3 platforms that I know of and maybe more other than Meditech.
I never worked for MQ and never worked on Meditech so I can't compare. From what I have heard about MQ I don't know how any company could possibly be worse .
Do any companies guarantee lines?
Like in the case if you ran out of work during the day, would they compensate for missed lines and you would not have to make them up?
I guarantee you, you are not the norm. Why lead someone that needs to make a living into a
situation that is getting worse all the time with lost accounts and over hiring and not knowing yet what the pay scale will be.
