They promise more than they deliver. sm
They seem nice enough but not once you are there. Checks were on hold last year for a few weeks, but that was isolated (as far as I know). I left right after that as I went to another Illinois company (also a Lee but not LeePerfect) and have been happy.
Nothing bad to say but nothing good either. I did not have enough work. Emdat is OK once you are used to it, same as other programs.
i can't promise you won't get an IM if there's a stat, but
i can tell you this -- we NEED you to do your job so we won't bother you unless we have to :) :) I'm sorry your previous experience wasn't pleasant ... but I can assure you, we do our best to make sure that won't be the case now.
She said promise not to YELL!!!!
Thanks - you have been so helpful. I promise, only one more post about this! SM
Are you talking in terms of the minutes of dictation (i.e. five hours (300 minutes) of the doctor's dictation every other day) or the time you worked? Also, would you receive work at various times times during the day where you would have to keep checking around the clock to see if there was more work or not and essentially feel like you were working all the time. I had a job where I would never know when I would get the work and would wait around all day long and then get it when I had the least time to work and then get more work again later that same day. That did not work out, and I would like to avoid that situation again. I would really like to find something where I know when to expect the work and that I could get it done during the time when I was most available (of course there would be some exceptions...). Thank you again for all your help!
OK, promise not to yell? See Message
I feel your pain, because I'm in exact same position, but there is no fighting it. I have chance to go to company without VR, but that company will probably go under, because this is the way the companies save money. It's a mess. I believe we have to accept it or find other careers and I am also seriously considering that.
PS
You could try Softscript.
No company can promise any steady
holiday season. I find it very slow during holiday weekends as well, no matter which holiday it is. I tend to just enjoy the downtime, and know that it will pick up.
It is difficult even with 20 years of experience to keep job hopping, so I'm taking the good with the bad. I do IC work for 2 companies online; that's how bad it is where I need to work 2 just to keep a steady workflow. 
Run as fast as you can. They promise the moon but do not follow through. sm
Specifically, they promise high volume radiology but I ran out of work constantly. They kept stringing me along about some big new account starting in May but it never happened. I am thankful that I kept my other job on the sly.
Has anyone else seen ads for MT schools that promise 40,000 yearly? This doesn't appear to be tru
with my experience, at least starting out anyway.
Yes they start at 5cpl but promise a raise
once off QA. What a joke!
It's 7:00 am to 12:00 am - midnight. LOLOLOL. Please leave. I promise they do not want you.

Yeah, they'll promise you the world, but don't deliver.

So companies that promise "unlimited" long distance
That's false advertising on their part, I'd say. If they give you a plan that's unlimited what are their limits? I'm curious because I have unlimited long distance through AT&T and wonder if they have fine print somewhere too. I rarely use my long distance for work (I use Comcast for ISP and connect through client's VPN), but who knows in the future. So does anybody have figures on how many hours on the phone is considered abuse with unlimited long distance companies? And why can't they balance out heavy usage people with people like me who have it but don't use it much, except for the occasional long gab with family members?
