Christmas Bonus survey...Has anyone received a bonus yet this year or expect one?
We usually get one but haven't see it yet. Just curious if anyone has been so lucky as to get one.
Holiday Bonus?
I'm pretty new to Webmedx and am wondering if there is any holiday bonus.  I'm probably crazy just having such thoughts but still hoping......anyone have any info?
Have never received more than 50 for a bonus ever. You were lucky sm)nt
Outsourcing killed a lot of things for us.

I am working for a new company this Xmas and don't know if they give bonuses or not. Just hopeful, but not expecting, am just glad I have work.

Good luck to you. Hope the work picks up BIG TIME for you.
What's greedy about it? Have always received xmas gifts/bonus as employee

I too received the gift and it is very nice and quite useful (nm)

Nice holiday spirit. For crying out loud.....
This is still a democratic country, is it not? Why is it that if people don't agree with YOU or the bandwagon cheerleaders for a company, they get bashed? I worked at TT and found it to match all of the complaints that are read on here. That doesn't mean it's not a good company - just not a good company for ME (and others, by the way). CHILL..................
Would have given everyone a nice fat bonus
Without knowing what this person sold for, of course can't say what fat is.

But that's what I would have done - at the very least.
nice quarterly bonus makes up a lot
with Alltype. What you get offered for pay is how well you did on the test and what shift you plan to work.
The vet I work gave me a nice bonus.
I got a card from one of the transcription companies I work for.
Nice Christmas card and $100 bonus.

Drop them an email. Mine was stolen. I received a nice empty envelope.

Agreed. I also got a nice Christmas bonus working for a tiny private practice. sm
In a smaller office you're seen as an actual person.
Pay on time, direct deposit, incentive bonus, nice management but at times workload can be a problem

requiring several accounts to stay busy.


It was the insinuations in your post that wrought the answers you received
First of all,several MDI-MDers did indeed post they had decided to stay and give it a try. Their posts were met with support.

Those posts did not contain comments about feeling guilty for talking negatively about MDI and did not insinuate other MDI-MDers were disingenuous about their choosing to leave the company.

YOU set the tone for the replies you got. Read the threads the past couple of weeks and you'll see that other MDI employees who chose to stay for their own reasons were met with support.

You, however, chose to set a whole different tone with your post, which is why you failed to get the 'poor baby, it's okay' responses you were apparently seeking.

Just calling it the way I see it and only my opinion...
Nice post, thank you and have a nice day. nm
.
What a nice post!
  It sounds like you are making what you want and your platform is working really well.  Thank you for sharing a positive outlook on this company.  I found your post to be very well written.  Thank you. 
Very nice post.

I also agree with going into MT for the right reasons.  This is the healthcare profession, not an assembly line.  These are live people behind these reports and living breathing physicians rely in our reporting skills to care for their patient.  I think somewhere along the line, this has gone by the wayside and all anyone seems to care about is cents per line and how many lines they can do in an hour.  Are you going to trip someone at the store so they'll go the doctor you transcribe for so you'll get your lines????????????  Geez Louise!!!!  There are going to be lulls.  If there are too many lulls, then one must find a way to supplement that.  Nothing is a given in this profession! 


Nice post about the doc's needs
We forget that the docs also have worries about their homes and such from the hurricane and that they are not immune from the devastation from IKE.
Nice post
You seem like a caring and concerned employer. I wish you all the best in both of your businesses!
Very nice post...
I have not worked with you or really read the comments you are talking about.  Reading your post touched a nerve with me--I'm currently getting together info to start my own business.  I am often anxious for the reasons you have illustrated, so I appreciate the fact you have shared such a great explanation.
nice post
i totally agree except i dont know what TPTB means LOL im so behind on these abbreviations people use on here.

I know that the work I expect from myself was not measured by the women who took over my job, but the docs took the 2 cpl less to pay them for the worse work. Well, whatever i guess. am i supposed to produce lower quality work because im not getting paid enough? That isn't my style... it just sucks for those of us who really truly do care about our work and dont get what we deserve for it.
Nice post!!!
Very well said!! 
that is a nice and encouraging post NM

Very nice post - all true statements! - nm

nice, thoughtful post/reply...thank you!

I agree also. Nice post. I'm so sick of asking one question
and getting a lot of really nice educated help and advice and then there are the negative mongers who go way off subject and ream you out for asking questions.  What is the deal anyway.  I've never seen so many negative people in one area or profession before.  Quite honestly, there are some days when I sit here bored out of my mind and then it starts wandering to everything else but work.  I find that I pick at stupid things and sometimes I feel like the social isolation is responsible and it starts making you fruity.  So, I will just assume when people are attacking others that this job is just getting to them in some way.  This is supposed to be a support group. I may not agree with everything I see but I am not going to rip someone apart. Let's stay support and objective.  Everyone has something to offer, let's just to it kindly and intelligently.  
Very nice owner, nice work, nice place - sm
the leave you alone.  I left because they do not budge from their pay which was kind of mediocre.  I would go back if I had to because they were extremely nice.
Also, it is not only about a birthday bonus, any bonus...sm
I am curious to see the average amount of different bonuses out there.  Like anniversary, birthday, holiday, etc. bonuses.  Remember back when you were an employee and had to go out to work for a company, during your birthday, anniversaries, certain special times of the year everyone would send around a card, sign it, cook a meal or something nice for you...I am just wondering if any company does that for you even though you don't actually have to dress and go to work physically.  A simple poll...NOT something I will base on becoming an employee with...A SIMPLE POLL!  Thanks for everyone who gave some input about their actual company and not a criticism...Just a simple question ....
No bonus here - I make my own bonus sm
by working more and having a big fat paycheck!

I have learned, in life, not to expect so as to not be let down or disappointed. I apply that reasoning to all aspects of life, including my career.

Although I agree that sometimes it is nice to have others think of you with a gift or bonus, in reality, it is not the norm working as an IC.

Christmas has become so materialized and commercialized, it really is sad for those who don't have as much as others to feel such a financial stress and burden to buy or give gifts.

So, I say make your own bonus and work a little more, get some extra lines in, and that would be your bonus!

Happy Holidays to All!




Very nice people, nice place to work. nm

holiday pay
Do most companies provide holiday pay?
No holiday pay?
I do not work for Spheris, but that is the most selfish/ crasiest thing I have ever heard. I hope I don't sound like an idiot here, but is that even legal to have to work on a holiday without getting extra pay (apparently, it must be) ..but, I tell you what, I would be taking off every single holiday. I can understand if you were IC or SE or if they offered different incentives... but EMPLOYEE?
holiday pay
Does anyone who works for DRC/Acusis remember if there used to be paid holidays or has it always been just premium holiday pay?  I've only been here since March, but I was under the impression when I hired on we had 8 paid holidays???
no holiday pay at DSG. nm

holiday pay
well, i'm not sure where people on here are getting their information. the new policy states you have to make your line quota 6 out of the last 8 pay periods and be employed there at least 6 months. it isn't that unreasonable
So what's their big holiday?
?
What holiday?

IC Holiday Pay?

If you are an IC, are you asked to work major holidays?  How many do you work?  Do you get a special line rate for working the big holidays? I wonder what the line rate is for holiday pay at most companies?


What's holiday pay?
Where I work as an IC, everyone who is normally scheduled for that day of the week is expected to work unless approved to take off in advance.  Experience tells me that there is usually little to no work on the holidays, though.
holiday pay
i get time and a half - 13.5 cpl - 6 major holidays
holiday pay??
I get the same pay as always.  I need to apply where you work. 
Holiday Pay
You negative people just slay me. Did you not get the email from Management about there being FULL management and supervisory staff working the holidays? If they get paid for the holidays I'm sure they deserve every dime they do get. All you have to do (from my experience working the past several years with TT on holidays) is sign up to work the holiday and you will get paid lines and a half. There will be work, there always is. Now whether it's an account that will be your comfort zone will be another question. They can only give us the dictation the doctors dictate. They can't create something. I'm just really defensive when it comes to TT, they've been really good to me because I've been a good worker for them and plan on continuing as such.
Holiday Pay
I forgot to mention in my previous post...why don't you build up PTO like TT gives? Then you can take a holiday and get paid. Times are lean now and you have to make some sacrifices just as TT has to do I'm sure. Some people think that just because there is a company they are making dollars hand over fist. If I had a company that offered people to accumulate PTO why would I want to give them free money and pay them for doing absolutely nothing? Good luck in finding somewhere these days that will give out free money. Sounds like you're more interested in a handout.
Holiday Pay
I work for three services; at two I get $.03 per line extra and the third I get 15% extra of whatever lines I've done.
Holiday pay
Well work then. The BENEFIT is you work from home. You forfeit some benefits in exchange for others. Get over it. Guess you didn't mention they give you a Christmas gift though. How many MT companies do that for their HOME BASED MT's?
It's the holiday
With short work weeks, you'll likely hear from them next week. Good luck! Great place to work!
I just TAKE the holiday. If they don't like it,
