Yes, not sure I could wait the 30 days it'd take to get the first check.

That always turns me off. I'm sure for most it's not a big deal but I can't work for a month without a check.

Do you have to wait 90 days (sm)
to be eligible for the health insurance, and do you really not have to work any holidays. How is the platform? Thanks for replying.
Yes, wait 90 days. sm
Yes, you wait 90 days for health insurance. You can request holidays off. The platform is a piece of cake.
No problem at all. Feel free to ask other questions or email me at timetotype@hotmailnospam.com (take out nospam)
I always wait about 2-3 days before
contacting a company I am really interested in. Sometimes they get so bogged down with resumes it is hard to keep up. Good luck!
wait 45 days
She wants you to type NOW to bail her out but wants you to wait 45 days to pay you? yeah right. who is flaked out?
Thanks, I guess I will wait a few more days. nm

Isn't this where the pay is almost zip and you wait 6 wks for that first check? Or was it another

You have to wait 90 days to quality for insurance and the other benefits. sm
There are 3 different plans for coverage -- basic, choice, and ultimate, I think -- and you choose which one is right for you. I do not have the paperwork handy, but it seems like good coverage at a reasonable price (single coverage, don't really remember about family), and you can also opt for dental and vision insurance. You are right, though, the premium is deducted every 2 weeks.
Are you kidding?? You don't get paid for 45 days. Geesh, I wonder if your creditors would wait
that longer to get paid...probably not. You go over 30 days and they start hounding you. I definitely would never do a job that took that long to get paid.
If things are still the same, the owner is great, but you wait a month for your first check ... sm
and the pay is rather low ..... it was by character count ... amounted to about 7-1/2 cpl.... but the work was easy, clinic stuff. I have no idea what she pays for VR, though. She is a professional and good to work for.
Good luck!
you pee in a cup, they do background check, 30 days for ins.

Check out post from "Tech Support" on here a few days ago . . .
said you can do this if you create another partition to install it on, and then you have to prompt computer which system you wish to boot from when you restart it.
That is what I just said. !0 days PTO, period. That includes vacation, sick days and personal days
They should have paid holidays so that you are paid if you take off. Also should inculde extra hours for sick days and personal days.
That annual raise of .002 is kind of a joke especially when at the same time they upped the minimum line requirement from 10,000 lines to 12,000 lines.
OSi just does not have the qualified people in management positions that I wish to work for.
I am glad that you are happy at OSi and all is working out for you. Their dishonesty and the way they treat people just does not work for me.
Of course they can get by cheaply by hiring unqualified people so that is very good for the owners.
You bill 30 days behind, and they snail mail it so it's late - about 40 days from invoice
No way jose - they even messed up their direct deposit payments
Maybe she/he works 14 hour days/7 days a week? nm

Check Monster, CareerBuilder, MedHunters.com. Check with the companies you see listed if they're
s
Would that be 5 business days or 5 regular days?
So when are we going to be paid this time around since you're so knowledgable?
Sorry, but for some of us a day or 2 actually makes a difference.
Most want 20 hours over 5 days, but it could be more, or it could be spread over 4 days. nm

Correction - TH has 5 PTO days 1st year/10 days 2nd yr

Axolotl within 30 days. Transolutions in 60 days. NM

It is true. Any job has its good days and bad days.
Perhaps you'd like to just keep your old job and try this one out. Just because a poster here is crabbing about it, or even if as in the past there have been negative posts, odds are that there are very happy people who don't even post or know that this board exists. As Alice says. Everything is relative. The fact that this company is hiring and pays may be a place which is a blessing. As opposed to digging ditches on day labor for example. Or somebody might prefer digging ditches. This is just an example. Sometimes we who are employable, even though we don't make as much as we used to in this business, or as much as we would like to, we still if working at home do not pay for gas to go to work, career clothes, deal with office politics, have to look at a boss who writes us up if we are a minute late, etcetera. I don't make half as much as I used to, but I don't send my 3 children to day care which by the way saves us money. SO I remind my husband I am worth that in addition to my salary if I had a job outside. No job is perfect. I am not even sure if Focus is any good or not, I have not worked there. But if one poster says there are good days and bad, I say that is the most honest answer you are going to get anywhere, and if you need a job badly, how is it to hurt trying it out, until you know for sure for yourself? THanks for listening. But sometimes this board gets to be a bit much with the agendas of people railing on other people like the OP here who just wanted all opinions instead of just one side. Balance is always great. And, if things seem lop-sided, then it is a good thing to seek out both sides. IMHO.
I think they would. Those are good days for 10-hour days. sm
I have a set schedule but it is Tues-Sat and it works well for me. It wouldn't hurt to ask!
90 days is correct. 3 days off 1st year, 10 during 2nd.

Does background check include credit check?
"You can check my credit if I can check yours"

Were the 2 days weekend days? sm
They expect everyone to work a weekend day. Their definition of team player is to actually work 6 or 7 days a week. One might consider it if the pay was there & she gave out some decent work. It is the ideal place to work if you are a workaholic with no life.
11 days is more than you would get inhouse...usually 10 days.
We have the convenience of working at home and yet you want MORE than what inhouse positions offer?
Ask if those are calendar days or biz days too nm

Oh, well, then please don't wait around for it. I
wouldn't want you to be disappointed.
Gosh.
But wait and see. :)
I had work the first 2 full weeks I was there.. afterwards I was bombarded with hours and lines to make up. i.e., 11-15 hours every single week with a paycheck that never topped $200 except for my first one because they pay $200 to train. They always wanted everyone available every hour of every day. At least my TM is. You need to come back after you are there for a while and let me know how it is REALLY going for you.
Only excuse I ever got was the doctors are on vacation thats why no one has work... umm I had like over 50 when I stopped counting in my work pool.. so I highly doubt it.
I really do hope everything works out for you. 
I was told we can never use our own computer. Everyone has to use theirs.
wait, there's more
(from the same board)

OH MY GOSH - thank you so much for posting this information.
I got an email from them telling me about a job and that I was preselected. Everything about the email was so professional, even the mention of sending them $11.95 to keep active with their staffing service, taking a typing test and sending the results, etc.
I got the email the evening before Thanksgiving and they needed a reply by the Friday after Thanksgiving because the job was supposed to start the next week. I got the feeling of [quote] hurry so you don't miss this opportunity.[/quote]
IT SOUNDED AND LOOKED SO GOOD - and I didn't have a lot of time to research this company - so I started with these forums and lo and behold here was my answer.
I sure appreciate that you took the time to input this information.

I fell for it the first time that they sent me something. I think it had to do with data entry but then they said that the positions have been filled. I find out that there was only like 2-4 positions that they had opened.

Now wait. Don't tell me there are
what you type in, no matter what your Expander plays out. For instance, if you type copdx and that comes out as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, you should get paid for all the characters/spaces in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, right? Not just five letters for copdx. I'm asking because of the post below.
Heck, if I worked for a company that wasn't paying me for stuff the I took the time to put in MY expander to make transcription faster and more profitable for ME, then I'd just throw my expander out and type everything the hard way.
Please tell me there is no company that cheats MTs like that!
wait!!!
If you are an IC, you get paid when the hospital pays the client = stop complaining and deal with it!
Is this the one where you wait (sm)
forever for the first pay?
Wait? What?
Wait... Medware was bought out by another company or they are merging with another company?
What shall happen to all of us MedWare employees? I love MedWare!!! It's the best one I've worked for yet. :)
wait until you have been there a while
to say you love them. I worked for them for a few years and got so tired of the bad platform and the fact they were always promising this and promising that...and it would be real soon...but after waiting 3 years none of this ever happened...so went to greener pastures. A lot of their platforms are not transcription friendly at all.
My 2 cents worth...I know a lot of people do like them and that is fine...for them anyway!
No, I don't have to wait. First job comes sm
in about 30 seconds and I start typing after it is done. The others download in the background.
You should only have to wait (sm)
for the first one. After that, they download while you are transcribing. Not slow at all. (?)
Wait a while and see then

Oh, just wait
Anytime now there will be a psychotic posting from a member of the management team telling us how YOU didn't pass their test and meet their high standards, and how THEY didn't want to hire you. Anytime now, probably within the hour or two.
Just wait
If you work on a busy account you will be called on your days off to work if they are behind in work.
Wait a sec...do you mean CTS or TRX?
Your post doesn't indicate to which company you're referring.
Thanks for clarifying :-)
Can't wait-what will we get? Maybe sm
a card that we can print out ourselves? 
Wait a sec -
Are you the OP or another MT who was burned by LM? If you're not the OP, when did this happen to you?
That would make 3 of you in this thread that weren't paid, and that's pretty scary.
Why would you wait to see what others SM
are doing? Get out now! If you wait, you will be a latecomer to whatever company you end up with. Why don't you be one of the first? I have never understood staying even a minute with a company that had me sitting around waiting for work. Move on. I have not worked at TT, but I know how this goes.
Credit check, FBI check was not for
me. The notion that if you don't pay your bills means your not a responsible person really kills me!!! Lots of people have $$ problems, especially if you are an MT, LOL!!! They are the only company I know that does these checks. Seems a little anal to me!!!
They can check mine if I can check theirs...nm
Hey wait a minute....
This all originally started way down below with a positive post about Transcend in answer to a question about the company. Then, the naysayers hop on and start blah blah blahing all over the place. So, I believe the trouble started at your door.
Okay, wait a minute
Well, you know, now that I check out my first apology, I see I didnt apologize before to you, just JMO. I thought I had apologized to both of you. So, I am also sorry if I said anything that hurt your feelings. And thank you for your apology also.
Just you wait and see if you dare go there !
You will absolutely hate the job at TH. Try it if you MUST, tho.
Now wait a minute...
I am management remember? not an MT!
