That's how hearsay and rumor gets fed.
If you don't know then guess what -- YOU DON'T KNOW!
No, you are not chained to your desk. If I am going to be gone 20 min or more, I need to clock out. No one has ever checked up on me or questioned my time. Ever.

So far as I know making false statements is illegal
See possible answer post..............now I'm going to work so I will have a paycheck to be deposited.
So the company is not making any money???
The oil companies tell us they are not making any money either! Wonder how they can all manage to stay in business.
My company was making us work OT too. After about
3 months and many of us burned out big time they found a solution - send the work to India. That worked great for a while until they saw $$, forget about how bad the work was, so they sent more work to India. The client was lied to about the work going to India and were extremely unhappy with the quality of the work and my company last the account and I lost my job.
was offered 14.00 by 1 company, took a job for 3.5 cpl. Not making much.

Anyone making more money with national company than (sm)
when you worked for a hospital, taking into account the benefit package you had with the hospital? If so, any explanation as to how you are doing better or worse would be much appreciated.
I just left a company after 10 years, making only

after making such a great advertising for your company...sm
that EVEN provides its special Expander and TRAININ G, could you finally also name this WONDERFUL COMPANY?
Why else would you tell us about this so phantastic company?
statements
If you don't work for them and never have, how do you know these statements are untrue?
Odd statements.
If you already were past the application stage then hopefully you already had an idea about what working at DRC would be like.
All of the posts yesterday confirmed that Acusis had bought DRC, so that comment about validating it made no sense to me.
Finally, maybe it's just me, but I've always considered accepting a job based on my interaction with the recruiter and/or employer and not the unknown/unnamed MTs of said company that I have absolutely no knowledge or interaction with. (Unless DRC's recruiter is now offering up current employee reference calls for your pleasure.)
Good luck at your second choice. I am staying with DRC/Acusis and I frankly could care less which MTs decide not to.
Please don't make such statements
I don't work for this company, never have. Yet it seems that people are always saying things that are not true about this company and causing a HUGE stink on this board. I can imagine that this has to be painful for the owner, as I have seen her posts in the past. Please don't do this.
These conflicting statements may be due to their
hiring seasoned MTs. The person interested would need to ask them directly.
False statements
Amen to that.
Besides stating that your DD is not there, when it is NOT there is not exactly a false statemtn. TT112 needs to get a life
I agree 100% with your statements! nm

Proof of statements made
Can this be backed up by some proof? There are a lot of good companies out there and great MTs. It would be a shame if you prevented them from an awesome partnership from these statements that may or may not be true.
I am QUALIFIED to make my statements because....
I worked with these people for years and saw how they treat others. It means absolutely nothing to people in the managment of SPI to fire people or lay them off or just take your work and send it to India or Manila. Don't think for one second that your job is safe. They are all about numbers...Its a numbers game...meaning revenues.
The Philippine Telecommunication company did not get to be a company worth over $100 billion US dollars by paying labor to US employees. They know that by taking US jobs and sending them to India or Manila will increase their profit margins 25-35% minimally. Don't think for one second they will not do this.
The Indian companies are much better than they were. The Manila location has finally gotten it right. They will be able to transition your jobs smoothly without compromising quality or TAT. THAT'S FRIGHTENING TO SAY BUT TRUE!
They have also geared themselves with the strongest voice recognition product on the market.
So, let's take a look at the overall picture:
1. People resources available offshore. YES...thousands.
2. Ability to transition and carry out smoothly.....YES
3. Voice recognition geared to take over.....YES
4. Qualified editors in Manila........YES
5. Production MTs in India......YES
6. Large hospital organizations not afraid to offshore......YES
I dont know guys....what else does it take to paint the picture for you. You are all smart people....figure it out!
May I ask why you were not happy? Vague statements don't help very much. sm
If you don't feel comfortable posting here, please feel free to email your response.
Slander is when there are false statements. .

I wanted to speak to some of your statements
When you say people keep things to themselves, there is basically nothing to keep. We were told when we first started to use the mouse (believe it or not but prior to VR I had never used a mouse!). I got used to that and then when outsourced was told to use the so called hot keys. I am now 66, taught myself to type around age 11 or 12 and I did not want to retrain to use keys when I thought possibly could just slow me down so I do not use the hot keys. My company said people could get more lines using them. I cannot get any more lines than the audio will let me go and I have that to fast forward most of the time so the hot keys are of no use as far as I am concerned. There is absolutely nothing more that I do. I read fast, correct mistakes, spell check and never read back over a report. If you call that any tips or tricks, well then there they are but basically the same I have done for straight typing all these many years. Oh, as far as the preferential treatment, oh, lordy I wish I could get that, especially on Saturdays when it seems like all the ESLs in the world are dictating on my end. We are not allowed to cherry pick nor X out work that we might not like to do. Ours is first in, first out.
Very nice post - all true statements! - nm

If illegal to make false statements, everyone would

It's called a troll. Statements without backup. sm
There is a lot of work out there with Keystrokes and others. MQ is losing accounts, and the other MTSOs are getting them. I am sure that they want to see quality and limit volume the first few days. I would if it were my company.
Ok - here ya go. I went from making $1800 per pay period to making just under $900.
Is that significant enough for you? Believe us, we are not just being negative with a grudge or anything like that. This is real! A month later, I was gone from there fast!
they are making a lot of changes....
This is the first I heard of it also and I found out by logging on and all the sudden have all new work types. When I inquired as to why this happened and was told it was part of the "MQ compliance team" (whatever!). Later on that morning, I received an email stating that the first change made was to rank the MTs by classification: Level 1 - ER/clinic notes, Level 2 - ER, Clinic, Progress notes, H&Ps, DS, Consults, Cardiac notes, PT notes (everything except radiologys and OPs), Level 3 -everything including radiology and OPs.
how much are you making, cpl
what are you making, cpl. ect.
It is b/c OSi is making changes
Positive changes...and that scares the daylights out of everyone else. Yes, they have made a few mistakes, but who hasn't? I am with you here. I never had a single problem with OSi until I came to this board and then I found out just how sucky my job really is. So, why wasn't my job bad before? It is a pitty that I had to come here to find out that OSi employs only the worst. I make a lot of money and I don't leave my home. I have a wonderful AC too and I love the people that I have actually gotten to talk to on a day-to-day basis. What more could I ask for?
I'm currently making more than that, but have been
looking around, testing the waters. I ace the tests, they call 2 and 3 times offering me different things, but never enough money. I have even been offered 7 cpl as an IC. My point was that experience doesn't necessarily count for anything these days as no one wants to pay you for it.
Where are you making $120 a day, can I ask?
That's pretty good.
I will be making 9.5 cpl
They offered me 9.5 cpl right off when I was hired last week for an ER account.
making fun?
saying - Having a laugh - is not making fun - it is a comment - not like are they kidding, could not get a coffee for that etc. They do not belong here.
but I am sure if you are concerned the moderator can give you the information so you can apply.
I was making ...
17.00 a hour.
She's making more
than I am right now at my company and I have 15 years of experience and she has about 8 or 9. From what I have heard, it's at the top of the pay scale for most companies out there and you get paid half of your typing rate for editing which is a lot more than I make editing. All I can say is 15 years in this business, they pay very well and that is why I'm applying for a job with them.
Are you saying you re making 0.075 MORE than before, or
they are giving you that which is more than you made before? 0.075 more a line is hard to believe.
I was making 16/hr when i was QA

The ones who are making $125,000
aren't the ones I have a beef with, it's the ones with millions in income and they pay less taxes than someone making $40,000 to $50,000. $125,000 doesn't give anyone enough money to take advantage of the tax hedges and loop holes that go only to the wealthy, especially if they are mortgaged to the hilt.
Please....you'd be making those
wages no matter what. Find a profession that will pay you more and quit blaming those of us who do our job every day without complaint. You all seem to have excuses why you aren't making money. Find another job where you can sit there and work in your bathrobe, chat on the phone whenever, peruse the internet, throw some laundry in when you want, not have to pay for work clothes or gas, not have to deal with lousy weather or traffic and can be home with your children. And yet you still want to make the big bucks and get all the perks. Why not find something else that will pay you what you think you deserve? Yeah, my DH has a good job and pays the bills....sorry if that offends you. I do this job because I love it, not to become rich from it. Be thankful that you have a job during these lean economic times. Don't blame me because you have no ambition, drive, incentive or guts to do something else with your life.
Are you making more than 5 cpl? (nm)
nm
You were only making up to 2 cpl??
My VR pay is 4 cents a line and 8 cents for straight. I do not use Dictaphone there, there are other systems besides just that. I have no drama, monitoring software? Know nothing about that. I love it personally.
She said that making up 2 cpl could be
time consuming. She didn't say she was making up to 2 cpl. lol
I'm not that bad yet but I was making
more than my daughter-in-law who is a nurses' aide and works at the county hospital, but now she's making more than I am, and her health insurance is only $100 a month for a family plus she gets a raise every year.
Then they are not making much of
I make 10 cpl, and if my company is charging 16 or even 18 cpl I don't see how they could stay in business. The bonus structure benefits them because the more productive MTs are, the fewer people they have overhead for, but still...
Are you making more/less/same now as
you were 7 years ago at MQ? My pay has decreased due to the changes.
I think they are GREAT! Making better $$ now than ever!
nm
Have you been making less than $16/hr for 11 years?
I hope not. If so, poor you after 11 years! If not, you better get ready for the pay cut.
HOW MUCH DID YOU MAKE AND HOW MUCH ARE YOU MAKING NOW?
I am thinking about making the switch!
It's my job. Dah! someone making a type? Did you mean
typo? Maybe you should proof your work. You are an embarrASSment to the community!
Oh, and when I said proof, I didn't mean 100 proof!
They're making themselves look bad.
I clicked on jen has a big nose and there's an ad there for OSI.
Anybody having trouble making
Amphion? I have been with them 3 months and still have not hit my 1200 line goal. Would like to know if anyone else has had this experience.
making money
I meant to say that I'm frustrated not making money where I am working, and wondering if it is possible to make money at Breitner?
Why are you not making money?
Is there no work?
making money
I'm not working for Breitner at this time. I'm working for T. I have work. I simply hate everything about this company.
I've read the posts about not getting paid at Breitner, but has this happened recently?
Is there a good paying job with good benefits anywhere?
Thanks for the answers.
