was a mess trying to get set up so I figure the pay would have been screwed up too.

Be glad you didn't actually start working there...
I was hired and during training realized what a huge mistake I'd made. The software is really outdated and complicated, and there was a lot of miscommunication and misinformation from the start. I didn't have a good experience with the gal who hired me either. Strange to be treated like a number before you're even out of the honeymoon stage of employment!
Be glad you didn't get officially hired - you saved yourself some time and money!
I didn't start working as an MT until
my kids were teenagers. I never could've done it when they were little. I admire anyone who can, but no way.
I am glad to see this post as I start with them Monday!

I am glad to hear that, I start training with them tomorrow.

I'm glad I didn't go with them sm
I was offered a position at Webmedx and decided not to take it. Boy, am I glad I didn't.
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that, I didn't think anyone used it anymore! I'm glad to hear so
I'll definitely check them out!
I'm glad you got it working....
Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. Hopefully they get it fixed soon. I'm actually off today, but usually help out if work is backed up.
Better to ask someone who didn't just start SM
because I would think a new person would be busy, but due to getting used to the account might not be producing a lot. I'd rather hear from a person who has been there a while.
i'll 2nd that! I'm glad i didn't
listen to all the nay-sayers. But we are even low on work at the moment; don't expect it to last. In fact, they are sending me work from another account right now...
Now I'm glad I didn't do so well on the test.

glad I didn't stick
around too long at TT. I thought it was bad organization myself. Just my little input from experience!
They're probably glad you didn't too - (sm)
 
Be glad you didn't hear.
Why? Stella and crew are psychopaths. You will pay them to use their software license to boot, won't be included in your contract, unless of course, my experience with them has changed that. I have a horror story to tell with this company, believe me.
The most controlling and thorougly unprofessional MTSO I have ever had the displeasure to work with. No wonder they are advertising...they can't keep good MTs.
Start Working?
How was I supposed to start working without training? I had no account specifics, and no one responded to my calls or emails. I assume that I'm not "hired" anymore.
When did you start working for them?
Are you on escription or ExtText?
When did you start working for them?
glad I'm not working myself to death..
money is not worth the time or stress. My income is supplemental to the home and for fun and/or savings, not necessary for bills, etc. And please don't bother bashing me or say I'm snooty and married money, not really the truth but fortunate enough to let my DH be the income earner, not me.
I didn't mean to start any bad feelings. I am sorry. nm

Thank you for posting. I didn't mean to start anything
and I am glad to see that they must just have some way of paying MTs differently. I honestly believe it has to do with the account that you are on because we all know that all accounts don't pay the same across the board.
Didn't mean to start WWIII.

It happen to me also . . I'm glad I didn't leave my job for them.

Well I'm glad I didn't stick around for more torture
on the world's worst platform only to find there wasn't enough work anyway. I only lasted 3 weeks before I flipped my lid. They told me they really needed help on clinic though. If you are on acute care, ask to switch. 
aren't you glad you didn't quit? NM

MDI like the Borg-assimilate or else-be glad you didn't. nm

Phew!!! Glad I didn't have to spell that growing up. LOL
nm
Don't sweat it. Be glad you didn't hear back.

Meant to say..1st day of next month after you start working ...

Did anyone ever start working for PMT in KY? They have posted lots of ads lately. nm
xxxx
Glad that line count is finally working..
..for a while anyway.
Glad you don't "REALLY" have a problem working with Indians
Wow. Your opinion on the subject speaks volumes about your attitude on duplicity.
99% of the equipment that you're using in your home-based transcription company was made in China. I hope that before you accept any job, you apprise your prospective client/employer that you are a Chinese company.
Oh, and my son was born in Germany. He is a U.S. citizen now, but I guess in your book he's still German. Does that mean when he grows up and owns his own company, he'll be faulted by narrow-minded people like you who apparently expect to be fully notified about someone's birthplace before you deal with them in a professional setting? I can already hear it: I don't mind Germans, but...
And when you sit down down to work in your pajamas, I bet you don't give full disclosure to the entire globe about the state of your dress. Does it really matter how you look? Of course not. What matters is that you are getting the job done, right?
Mediscribes/Cardioscribes is a U.S.-owned company. The owners are U.S. Citizens. Are they to be faulted for having ties to India and taking advantage of a premium group of people running the technical side of the operation? That doesn't make them dishonest. That makes them open-minded, resourceful and business savvy. In my book, open-mindedness beats narrow-mindedness every time. I'll take the former, and you can stick with the latter. And in this day and age, I'm afraid you will get left behind with your archaic attitude.
Sheesh, that's awful. Glad I didn't waste my time testing, had a feeling....

Maybe they didn't call her/him for a reason. They called me on Monday and I start tomorrow! sm
I know a lot of people who work there and love it, and that says more than the Q. I gave notice to my PS at MQ 3 weeks ago to start at another company but they did not get back to me after repeated calls. KS sent an email, called me and I start in the morning. They already set up my computer today. I am glad I made the move.
With the attitude of the OP, they probably tossed her resume into a compost heap!
Great advice. Is people stop working for them, maybe they will start paying attention. I wonder if .
their clients know they do not pay their MTs to do the work. You can bet that Rapid Transcript is getting paid by the client. What a ripoff. Just the fact that they have an F rating by the BBB woudl be enough of a turn-off for me. Crappy business practices.
i didn't know i was testing or working
thought i was just posting a quick response---what's the problem
I didn't get anything, but I'm happy just working for them. nm
Didn't realize you were actually MISSING a day of work b/o people working O/T. What did mgmt say?
nm
TransHealth has some that start the next month after you start work. nm
xx
I am so glad, so very glad that finally I have reached
the age that if we are low on work, I just take off. No problem at all and love the extra day or so off. I now have worked since the 70s and finally made to retirement age, get SS plus other retirement money coming in and thank the good Lord do not have to worry about if there is work or not. BTW, when I worked inhouse never ran out of work ever, only when transferring out to company do they run out of work. If I had to raise a family now I would most certainly cross train on other accts at my place but only have 1 that I work on, by choice.
Ditto.. Over 13 years experience working in hospitals doing all types of reports, currently working
for a national etc.. and Spheris told me I didnt have the qualifications. What cracked me up was the hospital I was working at at the time contracted some of our work out to them.. What a joke..I was good enough to work for a hospital and gave them work, yet not qualified enough for them. What is wrong with this picture.
MQ same situation. No pay for working holidays, no pay for working weekends nothing. Now noone works
much anymore and so they jerk the work out of the accounts to some place that throws it back with a lot of bad bad quality. This is the NE region. I dont know what the others are doing.
I didn't say I didn't care, I just don't understand
why the sudden outrage over HL offshoring.
working from home is awesome but working for DSG is not...
horrible dictators, sound quality is bad, no answers to emails and they run out of work consistently...that is just my experience though...
She didn't say they didn't offshore at all s/m
What she did say is that if the work needs to be done here, it stays here (paraphrased a bit, I think).
That is not lying and saying that they don't offshore work, as was stated by another poster above, but saying that if the client wants the work to stay in the US, they will keep it here. Sheesh.
we will be glad to use our
after we find another job
I'm glad I could help.
I am an MT, before I get accused of being in a managerial position.
YW...glad I could help :)
I'm glad I'm not the only one
When I was hired two years ago, I gave a set schedule as an SE (with every intention of following it), but right from the beginning I had to adjust it because of no work being available. Since then, I pretty much do what I want to. Thank goodness I work for a good office and they don't bother me much, but all the talk about the changes coming are worrying me. If they make me work a set schedule, I may just fly the coop, because I know there will never be work available during my shift.
I am glad you think so
You must be in management and not an MT or ME.
I have never had so many problems with MQ since being transferred to Amherst. Yes, there it is again, AMHERST. I am exhausted after my 40 hour week and feel like I have been typing for 2. I just do not get anywhere. All crappy dictators, and jumping from account to account and running out of work.
You must not do acute care or as it used to be called, medical records, and you must have easy, easy reports. I am making squat for all my aggravation.
Even if the grass wasn't greener on the other side, I would never come back.
I am just holding on until I can find another job and I am looking.
I can't take this garbage anymore.
It is not worth my health, happiness or my family. They all come before this company. It used to be a good company before FRANK came on board.
Can't wait until I can get out of here.
Oh, do you have to work on Thanksgiving and Christmas, if you celebrate that holiday? Just another one more thing to annoy me.
well glad you think so
nm
I want to say I am so glad that (sm)
I am not the only one who cannot stand the company. Every time I post elsewhere (will not say where) I got flamed for saying this is not the absolute best company to work for. Believe me, it is about the worst. Any time a company claims it is the best, that is a red flag IMO.
I am so glad....
I am so glad to hear that! I just got my work computer and am scheduled to start on the 30th :) I have been so nervous because I have had 3 different job offers and chose Spheris.
