I love it there. Tons of work, great people. I am 100% happy.

Ditto, Keystrokes is a wonderful company with wonderful people! I love working for Keystrokes!
I am just not making enough money.  They are a great company though, just ask for a back up account.
Who said people who work for KS aren't happy for people who work for (sm)
other companies?  I'm happy for people who are happy with their jobs, no matter what company they work for. 
I would love to work for Keystrokes but
I do not have a personal computer with XP and they stated that I needed to supply my own PC with XP.  Once I find a place that I can buy XP at a reasonable price I will apply.
I work for Keystrokes and I love it...

I work for Keystrokes and love it
Great company, good pay, great leads and plenty of work...I have been there for 2-1/2 years
I work for Keystrokes and have assigned doctors. I'm very happy. sm
I believe you can get overflow work if your doctor does not dictate on any given day, if there is any overflow work on that day.  My pay has always been on time.  I highly recommend them.
I work for Keystrokes on DocQScribe and love it. sm
I find that my line count is accurate (I pulled a few reports out into word and counted that way). ShortHand works, or I would not be able to type, seriously. I type 1500 lines a day, most days, worst being 700 in the beginning and 2357 being the best. This is 8 hours. I have done more but worked longer than 8 hours those days.

The only thing I was faster on was WP5.1+ with PRD+ but maybe it was just that my fingers were younger :)
Yes -- still at Keystrokes and still love it. :-) I am just looking for extra work. sm

I have worked 2 jobs for almost all of my life, so it is almost 2nd nature.  I think you will find Keystrokes a refreshing change from MQ.  They actually care about your well being and listen to you . They do not overhire.  The benefits are pretty good.  I do not have anything bad to say about them. 


Good luck! 


I am not her spokesperson just happy with the company I work for and upset that people can be so sm

misleading because the fit was not good for them. 


If you have been on these boards a while, you would know that she always posts her name.  I emailed her today to tell her what was happening on here, and the response I got back was she does not even look on here as it is too upsetting and has promised herself not to come and look.  She has too much else to do with her time and defending herself and her company is always misinterpreted.  She basically told me I should spend more time working or with my family than spending time on this soap opera.

It is better to not care and let people form their own opinions.  Everyone takes the postings with a grain of salt anyway.  I think it is sad that she has to be so tough-skinned.
Lots of people work for Adept and LOVE us
Would Adept hire you back? It's a two-way street, you know? This is irresponsible.
I know two people who work 3rd shift for Keystrokes on radiology and have a lot of work. Maybe you
on an account that has enough work. I hate to hear that someone doesn't have enough work or that they have a problem because I know that Keystrokes works to find the right account for every person. They do a lot for us but you have to talk to them until you find the right account or volume or hours for you.

I think that a lot of companies are that way but there is a lot of job-hopping in transcription. Everyone is looking for the perfect job but the grass is not always greener on the other side. There are a few MTSO's really are not good but for the most part, the others don't intentionally drive people away. That would not make sense. They need us to work as much as we need them to have the work there for us.


I love Keystrokes...been there for 3 months and couldn't ask for a better place to work...
nm
I doubt it. There are more happy people than unhappy people sm
at Medquist. I've checked out other companies but I liked MQ the best (I kept working at MQ while testing other companies).
Keystrokes is wonderful!! They are the nicest people and care 150% about their people!!
Excellent company!!!!
Thank you for saying that. Most people here just love to trash people.
It is against board rules though.
I am happy! I love OSi
They are AWESOME!
I am another happy MDI-Maryland MT too, love it here!nm

Well, anyone who loves their job needs to tell us where she is so happy at..Would love to know..

I love my job too Happy Camper...
Great company, great people, great pay...can't ask for more than that...I am lucky that I get to be home for my children too...
Not happy with the T-giving and Xmas, but other than that, love it there

I am very happy at Webmedx and love their benefits. SM
We have 4 little girls, so benefits were very important to us. Very good coverage, low copays and deductibles. Good luck :-)
To - I was not happy at Keystrokes
I would really like to hear about your experience there. I haven't called them back yet to tell them if I want the job or not. How is their pay scale?? My email is: adoty2@rochester.rr.com.
Thanks!
Are you happy at Keystrokes??
Before I take the plunge...
I am very happy at Keystrokes...
I love working at Keystrokes. My line rate is fair, my supervisor is very nice, and the benefits are good. I am fairly confident in recommending them to anyone. Good luck to you!
I'm very happy at Keystrokes
Been there almost a year and have never had any real problems.
Thank you DTS. I love my bag! Happy MT Week to fellow DTS employees.

Not too many people are happy
i could be wrong but I think a lot of people are not too happy with this change.
Dare I ask? Any happy Keystrokes Rad MTs? (sm)
How is the MANTIS platform?  They state pay is by report..what is the amount?  Nice people or ogres?  Any input greatly appreciated.  Tired of wasting time with revolving doors of empty promises. 
I make 9.5 cpl at Keystrokes and am very happy
I started at 9, and now at 9.5. I make excellent money there for less than 10 cpl because there is always tons of work.
Agree, very happy there. Love my flexibility. Like the old Signal! Awesome. nm

At least they seem to be happy with their jobs, which is more than i can say for most of the people
x
Medware people seem happy sm
but I guess it depends on what status you are looking for.
Wow, you people are never happy, always complaining
Not enough work, too much work, bad line counter and now ESLs? Are you lazy or what? You get off a gravy train account and have to do some REAL work and have the nerve to come here and complain? COME ON NOW. YOU ARE AN MT, ALL MTs DO ESLs! GET OVER IT.
They seem to have happy people working for them
I too sent in a resume a couple weeks ago and did a search and saw mostly very positive posts. I did that related posts thing that the other poster describes and it worked really well.

I figured they are probably swamped with applications if the number of people I have seen post that they really want to work there is correct. :)
welcome..you will love it at Keystrokes...

I LOVE Keystrokes!
I just had my second day with KS and LOVE them! In just 6 hours, I was able to do 1600 lines! I have an AWESOME ER account and all of the dictators are so easy! I hope to be there for many years to come!
LOVE Keystrokes!
While I don't type ortho for Keystrokes, I do ER, and I LOVE it. I don't have any ESLs, I always have TONS of work, make excellent money and, most importantly, I am treated like an actual human rather than just some number or just another employee. My lead MT is the best and is always extremely helpful. I also received a welcome card in the mail from the office when I first started. They actually go out of their way to show their MTs that they do care. They are by far the best out there.
Love Keystrokes too
I've been with KS for a little over a month now and love it. I plan on being there for many years to come. I was also offered a job with TT before I went to KS, but was told that the account was over 75% ESL. I have no ESLs on my account with KS :)
Love Keystrokes
I have been there for a month now and love it. My manager is super friendly and helpful, and I always have tons of work. I am on an ER account and I did not have to purchase any equipment. They provided with a Transnet foot pedal, which was all that I needed. My account is awesome and my pay checks have almost doubled since I left my old company (SPI/CyMed) and started working for Keystrokes. I'm sure that they are not a perfect fit for every MT, but I am extremely happy there and hope to be there for many years.
Love Keystrokes
I have never worked for Zylomed, but I do work for Keystrokes and I love it. I have an excellent account and an awesome lead MT. They always pay on time (direct deposit), and I have also found them to be very flexible. The best part is that they do not outsource at all and keep all work in the US. I would recommend them to any MT.
Definitely not Keystrokes! Love it there!
NM
Love Keystrokes
Been there nearly a year now, and I have had nothing but a great experience there. I would recommend them to anyone.
Welcome to Keystrokes...you both will love it!!!
I have been here over a year and I love it...couldn't ask for a better company to work for...
I've been with Keystrokes for about 7 months, and I am very happy. sm
Pay is accurate and on time, plenty of work most of the time, and the people in management seem to genuinely care about the employees.  My primary account is in Meditech and at first I hated it, but now I do not mind it at all.  Hope this helps.  Good luck. 
Glad you're happy -- I love MDI-MD too, although I missed out on the signup bonus. :( nm

I actually know a couple of the happy people who post...sm

I actually know a couple of the people who regularly post positively on this board about Transcend. I email with them quite regularly. They aren't management. There's one theory down the drain.


And, no, I'm not management trying to create a story, either, although you probably suspect that I am.


Try to accept that people can be happy and supportive of their employer. It's better to be part of the solution than part of the problem.


 


 


 


Very happy with PS. Extremely nice people. sm
Their platform is fully over internet. It has a few bugs, but they are working these out all the time. These are just plain nice people running that place. I really have enjoyed them and am so happy to have shed the stress of the uncertainty with MedQuist. Proscript does not offshore, either.

The big thing I like about Proscript is that they all work together pleasantly. With MQ, we are left out there alone without the tools to do a good job. With Proscript I actually feel I am part of an organization that is genuinely dedicated to doing a good job - and provides the tools and the feedback to do that. I like the QA people, too. They provide good feedback done in a diplomatic way - and they know we are all just human, which helps.
I can assure you that I am not a DR recruiter. People are happy there.
Ever consider that maybe what works for one person may not work for another, or are you that egocentric?
Yikes? I know it might be hard to believe, but there are people who are happy with MQ.
I just happen to be one of many. No weekends, time 1/2 for holidays if I work, 10c per line, fast platform, and every day I learn something new. Have gotten offers from Transtech, MDI-MD, Hypertype and Webmedx, but I'm still with MQ. I'm not stupid, far from it, I just KNOW that they are all the same. MQ happens to be the biggest and some people just can't handle that. They will bounch back, just wait....
I was hired by the CEO and love my job at Keystrokes. sm
I agree with the lead person in that there is more here than you are telling. Did you not like the account? Did you not have the proper equipment, phone lines, etc? Did you send in your paperwork? Did IS set you up? If so, you were not forgotten by the CEO. After she hired me, I talked to Becky for paperwork, Val for my account and Paul for IS. I have never spoken to Lee again but I am glad that she hired me in the first place. Did you need her to hold your hand? Do you have problems with other companies too?
