Posted By: care MT's? Should I give up and get out? sm
No more production work for me; I can't stand the stress of lack of work, irregular schedules and broken promises. If I can do all work types and am very good with ESL's, are there any hourly trainer/ QA, etc. jobs out there (in general)?

Posted By: many accounts and worrying about work? sm
I'm a long-time MT and I pride myself on my high QA, but in the last couple of months I've made several serious errors. I can't believe how sloppy I was. I know a good part of it is because I'm so tired and distracted constantly about not having enough work at TWO services. I have 9 accounts between my 2 jobs, and it's also very hard to keep up with all the different account specs. (FWIW, all three errors were made at one of the services.) Before this, I had received one call about QA in seven years, and now I've received three in two months. I feel like the worst MT in the world .

Salary Survey -
Posted By: LovesVegas
Looking at the post below about who loves their company, I am hoping to take this information a step further with what I hope is a fair survey. Working 40 hours a week, what is your salary, acute care versus clinic, benefits versus no benefits, and what company do you work for? I think it is very hard to judge what the individual companies are offering, and a lot of the opinions are based on what works for one does not work for another. Thanks to all who are willing to share this info.
Also, has your salary gone up (ha, ha), stayed the same, or gone down over the last 5 years? Thanks again.

After 7 months with a new company...sm Former -
Posted By: Transcend emp. just finding out about offshoring
I made $3,000 more in 7 months than I did annually with Transcend after working with them for almost 4 years. I can't say that I'm surprised that Transcend has now gone the way of offshoring because they are the kind of company that will stoop lower than low, but I will say I'm a little surprised that everyone was so up in arms on their company board when finding out about it. People were warned about this company over and over and over and over. The ones who tried to warn others about it were called liars, inferior MTs, troublemakers, the list goes on. Yet, here it is 7 months after the last exodus, which was only 6 months after the previous exodus, and the proverbial stuff is STILL hitting the fan with this company. It was once said that time would tell if the troublemakers were telling the truth or not. Aren't you guys at Transcend tired of being shocked yet? I'm curious to see how many left this time.
