there's something about the programming for this board that makes them disappear inside a post (and in the Name box too, IIRC?). 

There's a way around that, though ... just use 2 apostrophes in a row for each one, like ''this.''  ;)

You may e-mail your reply if you would rather.

Are they are good company with flexible schedule?

Are there many ESLs?  Is the dictation quality good?

Do you have assigned acounts or work out of a huge pool?  Do you pretty much have the same dictators?

Work flow fairly consistent?

Platform easy to use?

What is starting pay and do they pay for spaces?

I have a fun question ask everyone:  what (and yes I am saying what not who we don't want names) What was the worst doctor you had to type for?  I have typed for doctors from Bolivia, Portugal, and Czech all with English as their second language..  I could do them just fine after I figured out the basics.  The worst doctor I ever typed for was from Texas.  WOW could that man garble a sentence and fast - oh my gosh he talked fast.  English was his first and only language.

if what you mean by looking for more is you want someone to tell you it's great, then here - IT'S SO GREAT, I MAKE MAD MONEY THERE, they let me work whenever I want and there is always tons of work and OT offered on all these easy accounts with normals.  I think I'll retire with this company. 

Does that work for you?

I worked for them recently (within a year). They had software changes earlier to that, so if you see negatives about technology problems, it was before that. Evidently they did have lots of problems back before they were on their current system. Still some occasional bugs.

IC only. Good accounts. Put you on one account, and you stay on that account. If you have a similar experience to mine, you won't run out of work on your account.

Software getting dated. Not written by/for MTs or with requests for MT input. Hence, you have the programmer(s) doing really strange Keystrokes that are not productivity-friendly. They fix one thing and break three others. Need to fire the programmers and invest a bit more in getting decent programmers.

Office staff--THE best, hands down. QA will leave you alone unless there's a problem. You don't get QA scores sent to you or nitpicking. You either have good quality or they'll be contacting you about it.

Hours--THE best, once again. You have a quota to get in every week, and you give them a weekend day. Other than that, you're free to get that time in when you can.
OTI is also the company in my experience that's come closest to actually treating ICs as ICs.

I have worked for many nationals, and OTI remains my best overall experience. I had to leave because of needing benefits. That's the only reason I left. I would recommend them to anybody who's got at least five years of acute care experience in the Basic 4.

SoftScript pays up to 10.5 cents a line with full benefits.

JLG, I believe, pays up to 9.5 with benefits (or at least they used to). 

Be sure and watch the job boards for hospitals hiring for at home workers.  Good pay and full benefits at a great price.  Don't settle without checking all options and best of luck to you.
