I havent either
asd
I havent been with them long SM
But I can honestly say that they are the best company I have ever worked for.... Tons of work, excellent communication, very laid back, and a great bunch of people to work for.
I havent received anything. nm

Im trying...havent heard yet...
I wanted to ask anybody out there who works of TT Hughes Satellite system for high speed internet service? We dont have DSL or cable out here in the boonies yet.
You have to keep wondering with the new MQ pay plan that we havent gotten yet if they are going to
reduce the ASR rates or what have you and are hiring in case people decide to quit when the new rates come out. I have not heard yet what will happen with the ASR rates although they have said many times they are going to change them.
I did about 2 weeks ago, but havent heard anything. nm

Same here, I havent heard back yet. nm

I havent found a 9-pin to USB and I have looked everywhere. One place
told me that 9-pins were becoming extinct in other words so they didnt even bother selling adapters for it. I have no idea why the platform company, Escription, does not have their program updated so you can at least use a 15-pin that you can buy an adapter for and my laptop would take a 15-pin, but all Escription is compatible with is a 9-pin unless something has changed and no one told me.
I does end with an "S"..but if they havent jacked you around, I wouldnt worry about it.
I think for me, I'm probably going to bail. It's obvious the recruiter has too much on her plate as we're all getting the same story about forgetting things and contacting us in a timely manner etc..very strange but in this biz..flaky is the name of the game and they think we're the flaky, job hoppers.. I wonder why..Give us a decent job with decent benefits and actually WORK and we'd be happy, but that doesn't happen anymore. We just get jacked around.
Well, no offense, but I'd rather not...
..since I have put in my notice, it's kind of a done deal. One of the reasons I didn't go on the company forum with all of this is because of Larry's email and I can see where it can be construed as stirring up trouble. I just wanted to know if anyone else saw some things that I saw. In other ways, Transcend has been good to me. I really don't want to stir up trouble and sew more seed of discontent, so I hope you can understand that. Take care...if you enjoy it, that's all that matters. Take care.:)
Don't take offense....
Oh guys, it's not that I don't believe you...I'm just trying to figure out how I could find such conflicting reports on the same company. Had I known about the outsourcing I probably would not have applied but I did, based on all the good things I'd heard about them, and now I get to live with it.
Thanks for your replies:)
I did not take offense
No problem - I did not take offense in any way. I appreciate the help.
No offense taken...
It is about time someone realized that anyone can post anything anonymously on these boards and a certain number of chicken necks will take if for face value. I read where applicants offered positions attempt to do their due diligence in company research by posting Hey, does anyone have anything good or bad about company XYZ? That's a good idea- leave your career decision up to the input and responses of a bunch of anonymous posters. Why not ask the homeless about investment advice? regarding my identity, it really doesn't matter. The original poster, an applicant who interviewed for a position which she failed to get, crossed the line when SHE made disparaging posts anonymously about an employee (a recruiter) of that company. Whether or not I am that recruiter challenging her on this, or whether or not I own the company in question, or whether or not I'm a fellow schlub MT just getting my rocks off by stirring it up, is irrelevant. As one poster put it, if I was disparaged or if my employee was disparaged- rightly or wrongly- I'd stand up for them (or myself). The fact that NO ONE- including the original poster- can determine where these posts originate from, is entirely the point. If you do not want to get attacked, do not drop the first bomb. If you do ot want vicious, vile rumors spread, then don't post viscious, vile rumors about others. Live and learn by The Golden Rule. If you don't know what THAT is, ask a kid in Sunday School- they'll tell ya'.
I really take offense to this...
If I want to make extra money on a holiday (and besides, how many times have I flexed to meet my lines??), then I feel free to do so. Have I ever been told NOT to work? Heck no. In fact, I am ENCOURAGED to work...keep that TAT...
It is dog eat dog...has always been that way. Get over it. We all work different hours and have different accounts...there is plenty for all.
I take offense to that.....
You are making it sound like all southerners are religious freaks or something. And yes, some supposed Chrisitians are hypocrites...but not all. Don't generalize southerners. There are some good southern companies out there. There are a fair share of NORTHERN companies who are horrible.
I take offense as well...
Derm is no easy specialty at all. Most clinic MTs can get into another specialty without a problem at all, so that could have been left out. I guess I'm an ad guru all of a sudden, but some look really professional and others let's just say not so much.
Note: Emdat is not one of the best platforms out there. Me thinks someone is lining their pockets bigtime in this deal! JMO.
OffenSe, not with a C. nm

Havent you decided to accept their offer..or have they offered a position?
If so, what kind of pay scale do they have..
Chartscript- Just starting a job using this platform. I havent begun training yet but in looking at
the manual, it looks complicated or that you have to open up a lot of thing, I-player or something, a VPN, then the platform etc. Tell me it will be easy to learn and your able to whip through reports. I got spoiled on Escription where you just load the platform and go and then hit on button to upload. No VPN to sign into and load, no player. Just one thing. I think I'm getting to old and set in my ways to learn new systems. It seems like a hassle, so if there are any Chartscripters out there who can give me some positives, I'm all ears. I tried one other job that was the same thing and even got worse when I had to open up a ton of screens just to get demographics etc..and that was before I could even type the thing. I just cant see how that would be productive. You have 10 minutes into it before you even type the job LOL.
2000 lines, I havent done that in years. What work type do you do? nm

It is a federal offense
If the federal government checks the time the employee is producing work from the company software instead of the falsified time sheet and finds it is consistent across the board, the company will definitely be in a huge amount of hot water. I don't work for them and never have. I have my own small company with just me and two more employees, but if this is going on, the employees would have a firm case. They should also document the calls or even record them when they are called to work extra. Just my two cents. I hope this helps.
Why did you take offense - none meant
If you are comfortable with your self-described 'hatred' of Indians you need not defend yourself to me.
That said, I disagree that hatred is a valid emotion. Anger is a valid emotion, but hatred is not an emotion per se (per many psychologists) for one reason because unlike an emotion like sadness or anger, it is not of a temporary nature.
We'll just agree to disagree on that one.
We'll also have to disagree that contacting/lobbying your REPRESENTATIVES IN CONGRESS - the ones who write laws like the one(s) you currently oppose - would be LESS effective than trying to bring down 'Indian call service centers.'
No Offense Intended at All!
I'm sorry if you read something into my question that was offensive to you, but it was not meant that way at all, I assure you! I only asked how you knew because as Ire stated in my followup email, no one seems to read these or answer them that has ever worked at AccuPro. And I asssure you, the only reason I am inquiring is because I was considering applying for the Hem/Onc position they are advertising for, but my 15+ years experience in Hem/Onc is all clinic, thus my earlier question to anyone who could answer...do they do hospital or clinic work or both. I'm just a bit concerned about applying when so little is known about them, but I do very much appreciate the info you gave me and in no way do I question or wonder whether it is true or not! I give everyone here the benefit of the doubt and assume if they post an answer they are stating what they know to the best of their ability. I was just hoping maybe you might actually know a real person who had worked there since none seem to come forth on this board to answer any questions, which I do find very strange in light of all the MTs that read and post here. I thank you again for your information!

Medware..Anyone know what they pay their speech editors. I have applied but havent heard back. I
was just curious if it was worth my time or not.
Havent been at Scan Medical too long but finding the work drying up. Anyone else there
notice this.
Is Apex an internet word-based platform? Havent heard of it...

ha! No offense intended, Paco

'Scuse me but I'm not a monkey and I take offense
at your insinuation.
I do VR and I love it. It is not mindless and boring. You have to be able to READ to do this work, and you edit as you go along. I think it's just as challenging as MT'g. The program I use does learn as it goes along and the work has gotten easier, but you still have to CONCENTRATE hard to put out good reports.
I haven't doubled my pay or lines like others because I believe in quality before quantity, but I am close and am making more money. It just depends on the work. Dictators are mostly pretty good, even the ESLs. In fact, some ESL reports don't need a single word edited. Sound quality is good, too. No problems.
The bonus to VR is that it is saving my hands. While doing regular MT'g, my hands would be so sore and swollen by the end of the day that I could barely lift anything, open jars, or make a fist. Now, I only get pain in a couple fingers once-in-a-while.
No offense, but part of a good MTs
job is to do every dictation (or at least attempt to do, to the best of their ability) they get in their que. He's/She's hard to understand is NOT a valid excuse to skip a report. When you have to type one ESL after another while your co-worker picks and chooses the easiest dictator, it is dishonest and unfair to good MTs.
No offense, but you are insulting the wrong ones.
You are correct when you say that difficult jobs make you a better MT. But the same holds true for cherry-pickers. They would be decent MTs (as well as honest ones)if they were honest enough to type whatever came up into their que. In my early days as an on-the-job MT, I myself had a more experienced MT cherry-pick and my lines and paycheck suffered because of it. I don't check for cherry-picking, never have, but I resent them thinking they have a right to pick and choose what I type. I, too, now am good enough to do any job, but that is no excuse for others to be dishonest. You obviously must not have to worry about money. It's a shame you are insulting the honest MTs who are complaining about the dishonest ones. You seem to be insulting the wrong people.
Why not a group note? I took no offense. (sm)
I don't expect them to spend all their time monitoring us. We are supposed to be professionals. I like them spending them time on getting new accounts, improving software, etc.
Besides, I received part of a group E-mail. I have no way of knowing what happened to any individuals who were repeat offenders. For all I know they WERE dealt with on a 1:1 basis.
I took great offense to the tone in that job ad.....sm
I have typed dermatology for over three years and it is not as easy as everyone seems to think it is. When my docs are dictating, they not only talk about their dermatology problems, but other medical problems as well and that can be any specialty under the sun.
Personally, I think she/he can take their job and stick it where the sun don't shine!!
no offense, but who are you talking to? where's the thread?
.
I havent heard a word about an incentive and I have worked there almost 2 years so I guess I didnt
qualify for whatever status you needed to get an incentive. Is this something you get every pay period if you meet a quota or just something quarterly. Just curious.
Sorry for the typo/brain fluff-offense

No offense, but do you work at line rate in-house?

Are you gay or an actor or both, Seymour. No offense but I like a little light humor to make me sm
smile on a day when I have hit the bottom of the barrel.
Come on, learning correct spelling is important. No offense meant.

Yikes!
Run for the hills! Don't get suckered into joining them cuz they may offer 10 cpl as it is not worth it; also not worth sacrificing every weekend for chump change. They say they offer competetive wages in their ads but yet they don't offer incentive or shift differential. No wonder everyone leaves as there are greener pastures.
Yikes!

Yikes.
I can't see any MTSO getting involved in this. I know plenty of MTSOs or their loyal workers read here. I warn people when I can and give credit to a good company when I run across them. If a company worries you, don't work for them. There are hundreds of companies to choose from. :-)
Yikes.
That is just terrible!
YIKES!
Just sounds like a bunch of people got up on the wrong side of the bed today. Everyone seems to be crabbing here. I know this is a company board, but why the personal attacks? I think possibly the attendings were not in lately maybe because of the holidays and a lot of docs who work for the Hospital Admitting dictated. It does not happen in droves all the time but it happens. And about people liking certain work types, that is good for the company, everyone just should be prepared to do everything if the company knows they have the talent. In my 20 years of experience things usually even out. Especially at a place as good a TT with the kind of leadership it has. Not to be goody goody, but if someone was worried about too much ESL or some other problem, why not just reduce stress instead of crabbing on this board. IMO. Of course now you can crab at me, but that's okay, I'll just have an egg nog and forget about it (see gab board). LOL
Yikes.
If you like coding, go back to school for that. No way should anyone be doing QA fresh out of school. Good luck to you!
Yikes!
That was the reason why I was thinking about applying was because my company has been very low on work almost all month, and I wanted something more stable. I guess I'll have to think twice about them then. Thanks for the heads up!
Yikes!
I would never give ANYONE copies of my pay stubs no matter who they were or what they said they needed them for!
YIKES!
I saw an add posted on another forum and the address was Ohio. Totally strange. Indian-owned - - I will not apply. Thank You!
Yikes
Sounds like something Spheris would do.
Yikes!
We should all throw our shoes at whoever is in charge of that place!
