occasionally work load is an issue depending on shift and account but if you're willing to be flexible, you should be okay.

Pay on time, direct deposit, incentive bonus, nice management but at times workload can be a problem

requiring several accounts to stay busy.


Good company, pay on time direct deposit, work usually plentiful, nice coworkers and management has
always been very nice to me.  Incentive for MT over production goals.
Great little company..I worked there for a short time, IC, and pay always on time, great owner too!
I had good dictators, they use FTP, and I had a 12-hour window to return the work.
Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

DSG is awesome-pay on time, management is great, plenty of work, flexible schedule. nm

Pay is always on time, direct deposit, very nice management to work with, and DQS platform, work
load normally busy, but low now because of the summer slow down on my accounts.  Sound an issue on some accounts, but not others.  Overall, wonderful company.
MDI-Maryland is an excellent company, pay on time all the time, great line rate.
I left also because I went out and got my own client(s).
They are very nice people.

The only negative I can think of were the e-mails from the owner say work, work, work, we are out of TAT.

Other than that, which is very minor, it was a good experience.
Great company. I've been recommending this company for a long time.

but a great post - my company gets bashed all the time too.

Loved Alltype! Great management and great accounts.
wah  -  i miss it there!
Not sure, but they have a great incentive tier and differentials
and you can get those line counts. Reminds me of days working for the hospital, first time in years!
Started small; great company. Rapid growth; not so great company
First year I was there was like heaven. Then the big growth spurt when they hired managers from another company (that I had run away from before because of their bad management) and let them kind of take over. Although I have no proof it was as though I got 'bumped' by these new people when they came in and I lost a good account, good manager, etc. My paycheck went down every month lower and lower, and it became harder and harder to make my minimal lines. Having any kind of advocate was nonexistent.

It depends on you and what kind of MT you are. Seems to me there are pretty much 2 types...

Sports like basketball where you have the pros who play with finesse, and then you have street players who think it is all about physical strength, period. More and more the physical strength is winning but the art of the game gets lost more and more...

As in this country where there are almost 2 sides now, those with intellect and thoughtfulness, and those who think the only way to be strong and be a leader is to beat up everyone who does not agree with you...and force your will on others.

Suffice it to say in my opinion WMX changed its philosophy of the way it treated employees and lost its heart when it grew, and it was literally almost overnight...

If you are a mass producer who has no care of what it takes to make money, if you are a 'street fighter' then it would probably be for you because you WILL have to fight for everything. Fight for the right account, fight for lines, fight to be treated fairly, etc. If you appreciate MTing for the art of MTing or have any kind of joy for the profession, my guess is you will not make it there very long...

This is happening all throughout the what used to be called profession. Seems to happening all through everything these days. Humanity and heart are being pushed down to the bottom...
When was their management great?
Are you a disgruntled former manager for them? I heard you all got fired.
Great incentive plan, but based on speed/lph not total lines produced. Works if you are fast.

Who from management of OSI keeps writing in to pump themselves up to look great?
Did OSi hire somewhat to sit and post on MTStars all day good things so that people would apply there?   This company kills me! 
Keystrokes lead MTs and management team are great. I am sure I
will be flamed but I really like my lead and have never had anything but positive experiences with anyone in Keystrokes.

The nay-sayers will start their bashing now I am sure.
Yes! Nice lady, nice company. nm

Wow, how nice!!! You have a great day too!!! nm

Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

Great for some maybe....but they are nice people...nm

I've been very happy at DSG -- pay always on time, decent incentive package, sound quality probab

depends on account, mine has been fine most of the time.


Yep. Me too. Nice people, great place to work!
.
Proscript is a great place. Nice QA people. nm

I've heard the pay isn't that great, nice people tho. NM

You are pathetic! I have a great life, loving family, work for a great company.
You might want to fix that.

You really don't have to shout (angry person), but yes you are wrong!!

That is my last word to you!

I will add that getting a great pay check every other Friday from Medware really puts a huge smile on my face.
I would love to get a card from my company...and a holiday incentive...

Sounds like you have it pretty good.   I didn't get squat from my company, and there are times when I do not even get a paycheck on time.  If your company is making a profit and able to pay you on time and offer an incentive, and is not owned by some private equity firm that may go under -- you are very lucky.  


They are nice and they do pay on time .....

Unfortunately, they do not utilize Emdat properly which naturally slows down the whole process....and work is NOT steady.   Feast or famine and today I go hungry.


Very good company. Incentive pay for production plus shift and weekend differentials. sm

Their platform is stable (proprietary, I've been on it for about a year and a half now).  Pay is always on time.  Good support staff.  Their insurance changed this year.  Plenty of work.  They don't overhire on their accounts from what I can see.  If anything, there is always plenty of work, which I like because I can hop on outside of my regular shift and get some more lines.  Now that they pay extra for weekends, I like to pick up some extra hours then. 


Owner is very nice, pay is always on time (more)

I personally didn't have an issue with Emdat, but I know there are others who really don't like it.  The patient info is in the system, and all you do is pull it up.  I think the accounts are primarily family practice clinics, so if you like that it may be a good match. 


Pay is about average, I suppose, and the line requirements are easy enough to reach.  Scheduling is very flexible. 


Did I hit the high points?  Good luck!  KM


It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm

AXOLOTL - A GREAT COMPANY WITH GREAT INSURANCE
Axolotl has AWESOME, AFFORDABLE insurance.  Family plan medical and dental costs a little over $300.00 MONTHLY.  They also pay for family plan vision in its entirety.  STD, LTD, 401K with match and flex spending account, great PTO and HOLIDAY pay.  OH and paid downtime in the case you run out of work, which doesn't happen often!!! 
DSG is a good fit for me, management friendly, pay on time, occasionally running out of work is one
of my biggest complaints, but it is usually not for long, just enough to upset the routine.  Production incentive a plus.  Sound quality depends on the account. 
pay on time direct deposit, work usually plentiful, recent management changes, email me if you want

to ask specific questions and I'll try to answer them.


Really bad management. This company will
never tell you the truth about anything. There are much better companies out there and if I were to work for them it would be on a part-time basis only. If you are full-time with them they will hound you to death.
I worked for them shortly. They were very nice and paid well and on time. sm
This what I did not like. On the account I had, each report had to be saved separately and then individually sent. It seemed to take a lot of time monkeying around with each separate file which was only about 10 to 11 lines long. I do know that not all of their accounts are like this. They were extremely nice people and paid well!!
Great place - ExText is easy to learn and user friendly. Good pay. Nice, COMPETENT people.

Checks on time, 10 cents/line IC, nice people.

They were very nice and paid on time right from the start, but both accts. I got put on I couldn'

Pay always on time, platform is easy, they've always been nice to me, do have several accounts to
avoid running out of work.  I do MT and QA.
I had a hard time making money. Nice people though! nm

Great company, great boss....

I use to work there.  The dictators on my account were really good.  They use Emdat/Inscribe.  Pay on 1st and 15th by direct deposit.


Which company has the best management/team leaders

Can you give your experience of which companies have the best people in place for their team leader/supervisors, and what you liked about that person/company?  In other words, what set them apart from other places you've worked.  Thanks!


Yes I thought it sounded nice. Just hard to change but it is time. Always a little bit of anxiety
about another company and leaving what you know and sort of starting over but sometimes it is time. You know, the fat lady sang.
I just counted my specialties list. There are 37 that roll in at any time in no order:) Nice huh?
..
I worked there part-time briefly. People are very nice to deal with, sm
and pay was okay.  You had to wait 90 days to get direct deposit, and until then checks were mailed, which is a bit of pain, but they were always on time.  I didn't care that much for my account, but the leader was always quite helpful.  They must be a bit disorganized, though, as I still get messages from the help desk to help out, and I have been gone at least 3 months!  And the help desk is apparently in India, if that makes any difference to you. 
LOL Everyone I guess that says something good about a company is upper management.
Make sure you get your facts straight before you call me upper management.

If anyone would like to email me, then that is okay with me. I dont know how to add my email addy on here, but if you let me know how I would surely like to email you.
Gerri, I worked for a company as management that had would hire
a lot of American transcriptionists just to get the ball rolling on new accounts, and little by little would send it over to India. The company would have me send a little bit of work to India, have it QA'd on our side, and send it to the hospital. The better the Indian company got with the account, the less work we would give to the US transcriptionists. The nasty emails from the US transcriptionists got to me after awhile, along with my conscience, and I quit for the company.
It is a Pakistani company, all upper management are pakistanis.

Management of any company will make you think it is "just you" having troubles. If you are

Seems like a nice company - sm
Nice pay, nice people, nice account.
