Transcend--Too many chiefs and not enough Indians. Communication is awful.
I've been there a long time and the more team leaders they add the worse the communication gets. Now, you can send a question, help request, or an email to about 8 people and your lucky if one gets back to you. I personaly am sick of it. I don't care if I am asking what day it is, someone should have the common courtesy to respond back. I get tired of talking to myself. I'm done with that. I'm not sure the line counts are accurate either. I can do two pages with them and get 50 lines and cthen I can do two pages on another job that utilizes Dictaphone and I end up with 80 lines. How does that work, especially when they use the same font etc. Bad deal, moving on.
too my chiefs and too many
Indians...top heavy is most always the beginning of the end.
Let the Indians work holidays for OSI
$*#@^%
I agree, no Indians work for this place.

Americans edit Indian work, never Indians
I was asked to sign something that said I would not tell that I edited Indian work. I would not sign that. Indians cannot edit Indian work.
duh
Americans have to do it.
Focus Infomatics uses Indians to edit Americans' work
They do make mistakes. But if you point it out to them, at least they are willing to learn, they don't get all huffy like Americans do, and the Americans should have better grammar, etc. in the first place!
Big time..They usually have the Indians work at night and weekends. It can be frustrating to log in
and have their not be a lot of work on the account your on. The only Escription account that has extra work is the one in which the hospital had them agreed NOT to send their transcription to India. Otherwise, we have to share our work with our partners as they call them.
DARN STRAIGHT... and as soon as the Indians are forced to work weekends,

then I will.  I used to have plenty of work for my early morning shift and now none.  Why?  NOT BECAUSE THE CLIENT DOES NOT HAVE WORK AT THAT TIME......


BECAUSE THE INDIANS TOOK MY WORK.  They get to work days and have off nights and weekends becuase us PRIMMA DONNAS are here to suck hiney and say *I will do it cause the client needs it*


WAKE UP!!!!!!!  The world is laughing at you. 


monitoring
O'gee .. been gone for awhile now but it was on the desktop and I found it when I took out all the ExText stuff after I left. Others complained of the same thing and I will write them and see if anyone has a file name. I was livid and called them on it. You know she said absolutely not .. pure horse pucky.
Webmedx - Monitoring of your PC
When logging on, I get a message about giving permission to monitor my PC by connecting.  What exactly does this mean?  Are they able to monitor my PC all the time or only when logged in using their software or what? 
monitoring software?
Oh hell... what was that? I used to work for them and didn't notice that. Maybe it's still on my computer. Can you tell me what it is?
TTS - Monitoring your computer
I just read somewhere on this board that TTS puts monitoring software on your computer.  Is that true?  Can they do that?  How can we tell what it is and uninstall it? 
They and MDI are obviously monitoring the board
They're preparing for the fallout, I'm sure.

your supervisor should be monitoring this action.

Prez - probably prez is monitoring all proofing for costs, not individual
questions, so all email probably goes to Prez email.
It has nothing to do with Indians
It has to do with any MT of any nationality that will accept to work for peanuts. We had that saying IN-HOUSE back in the day before anyone had heard of off-shoring. Please don't try to look for racist meanings when there are none. What the saying means is that if you pay little enough, you will get a worker (no matter the nationality) who has the knowledge and abilities of a monkey. I have known plenty of that variety right here in the good old US of A.
I think that's because you don't have to pay the Indians to sign on - sm
and yes, I am being sarcastic!! :)
The Idots are the Indians.


What about editing the Indians?
nm
indians editing
THat is not true.... we QA editors never get Indian work, and some companied they get edited twice India and then final editing in US, and it is still crappy.
I'm sure the Indians who devised it, will not
xxxxxxxxx
Indians...Are they really that good?

if you like working for Indians you will like it.
all Indian all the time.
Indians = monkeys?
Regardless of how I feel about Indian outsourcing, that's a snide remark.
GIVE IT TO THE INDIANS

You are so right. And to take it further I have to say, we as MTs let this happen. Granted, it was the old frog in the pot situation, but the water is boiling now and it's time to JUMP OUT!  MTs as a whole simply need to REFUSE to put up with all this cra...nonsense. 


I only work my own accounts, as well as some work for a wonderful, small service owner. I tried Spheris and Transolutions a few years back only to experience all the horrors lamented on these boards, and quit  both of them in a matter of 2 or 3 weeks. Life's too short to be miserable and broke.  You're not making any money anyway!!!!!  Have you ever figured out your hourly wage?  Especially when you're sitting there all hours just hoping some work will come in!  This has been going on for so long, it's pretty clear that it's not going to change, so LET THE INDIANS HAVE IT!!!


Unbelievable! The Indians
can't even MT very well, much less do QA!!! What's this business coming to...
I'd rather edit Indians than VR because sm
I did that and made a lot more money on it than VR. They actually get all the words right except our slang.


Blame it on the Indians! LOL ! Like everything else! LOL..nm
nm
Well, they better have lots of Indians, as I don't
X
Kentucky Indians. nm

How can you NOT KNOW you were training Indians?

The dialect did not give it away?  The lack of knowledge of the English language was not telling? 


COME ON! 


Does it matter if it is being RAN or RUN by Indians..same outcome
Get over it..
not sure of the exact # but there are more Indians than Americans
nm
Of course we are the goldstars - just as the Indians are with their own kind, etc.
Ya gotta think global though.
Mostly Indians. I've never seen anything good

posted above them.  


Why are you making Indians scapegoats SM
for United States greed? My company has more MTs in India than in the United States. The list of US hospitals that prefer the company send reports to India is shocking and makes me sick. But India is doing more to bring business to their country than we are to ours. Whose fault is that? It sure as heck is not the Indians.
Working for Indians is a pain.........sm

They are rude and they love to talk down to you, especially women....they think they know every damn think about everything and don't know squat. 


Indian men are A holes!


But "Kentucky-based" Indians …. nm

I had a BAD experience with working with Indians...nm
xxx
So if Transcend uses Indians for weekends,
they have Monday through Friday only positions available for US employees?
What is Cbay. Do they hire MTs. I thought only Indians.
:
The Indians gobbled all those accounts up! Try Focus. nm

No Indians in MA u think? Thought maybe they had a few helping there. I'm a rookie outside of my
,
If the Indians weren't all glomming for our jobs there would be more of us.
They have trashed this occupation into the ground, IMO.
Furthermore, I would like to know how the Indians remain HIPAA compliant when there are 27 of them

Most Indians in the MT business are dishonest scum
nm
Sorry - I guess we're getting to be like the Indians - we don't understand what we read
or type.
Just a matter of time - the Indians know they are being short-changed. nm

For sure one of the hospitals on their list is NOT their client. Indians lying...
 
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.
OMG! Medware bought by Indians?!?!? Isn't THAT just great. See link.
