In Reply to: SPI in another round of layoffs - me
and I work there...not that that surprises me or anything.  Was this a particular office or just certain accounts? I'm currently looking for a new job, but I'm obviously curious and would like to pass this along to some of the other MTs so they know what's coming. Thanks so much for any help!

Anyone heard about layoffs from Cbay? sm
Someone posted elsewhere that they had been laid off by this company.
I've heard only positive things about them. So, I applied, but haven't heard a word. Maybe fl

haven't heard anything about them....
but I did a Google search and here is their website: www.archivus.net
I haven't heard anything.
I am interested because I do medical billing as well. I am waiting to hear back to see if they hire people to do this from home.
haven't heard
I spoke with a recruiter there for a long time two weeks ago and was emailed benefit info etc. on the company by that recruiter and told I was going to hear from someone else in a couple of days. After that I found out from someone who works there that they received HUNDREDS of applications that weekend and that is why we have not heard back yet!
No I haven't heard anything :( SM
I did pass a test with Echo, though, and have decided to accept their offer. I'll be working part time for Echo right now, so if PMSI comes available, I could do both (I told them--PMSI--that I wanted to work part time).
I e-mailed A again, but still haven't heard back from her.
Just Me
No, I haven't heard from them either. NMd

I haven't heard of any (sm)
I work there too part time. I rarely see anything posted about them, good or bad. You can email me if you want, just state you're from here because I don't open up any email that I don't recognize someone or something about.
Is she still there? I haven't heard from her either. nm

Haven't heard
anything about benefits changing. I am an Editor and we just got a simple email that we are going to hourly instead of salaried as of Feb 1. We used to get paid for down time but I think that's a thing of the past as well now. Nobody tells you much of anything.
I haven't heard anything yet either.
The website says they are still working on scheduling and hope to be done this week, so maybe we'll hear something soon???
I haven't heard much about MDI-FL
I've been at MDI-MD for about 2 months. I've had no problems whatsoever. I can't speak as to MDI-FL. Maybe someone else could chime in on that one.
Haven't heard anything either :(

Haven't seen or heard of this at all
Yeah, they're low on work right now; however, I haven't seen any QA positions eliminated nor have I heard that they're losing two big accounts. Proof?
Haven't heard of them in my 25 years as an MT.
Try a Google search and see what you come up with.
I haven't heard back from them yet. (sm)
Does it seem to take a long time to hear back from them? I went to the website, filled that info. out and the test last week. Do they pay more than 9 cpl?
If you haven't heard back from her she will
contact you. She is a sweetheart. She's just really busy right now. Try giving her another call or email. I am also employed by Transcribe it Quick.
Never heard of them and because I haven't, I did not apply.
I think they must be another new one. They come and they go, but in their case, they should have told something about themselves. They obviously do not have a website either.
I haven't heard anything except on this board SM
Has anyone (other than the previous poster a week or so ago) called WebMedX to see if they are hiring for the account?
I tested them and haven't heard anything...
It has been almost 3 weeks. I have already signed up with another company. I hope they get back to you. I keep thinking maybe I failed the test, but know I couldn't have because I used the Dorland's to be sure I was answering everything correctly. Good luck.
I haven't heard this either. would love to know more.

haven't heard a word
I accepted a position with Allegiant, was suppose to start yesterday, but haven't heard a word...............I getting tired of the transcription, business.
A couple of these I haven't heard much about, but most
of them have several posts, you just need to look through archives.
Did you apply? I did and haven't heard
The only thing I can find is that the pay is low, but if it is easy clinic work and the people are nice, sometimes it's worth the low pay. 
I hope she's doing okay. I haven't heard anything sm
about Allstate going out of business. I hope someone posts some information.
I did. Haven't heard anything back. You? nm

I'm curious about this company as well? I haven't really heard much about it.
well, haven't heard the word troll since...
.
I applied but haven't heard back
Do any of these companies let you take time off without pay if you haven't earned your PTO yet? Any other good companies out there? Anyone pay more than 8.5 cpl?

Thanks..I e-mailed the AFLAC guy but haven't heard back yet (sm)
Meanwhile, I'm going to look for other affordable plans too. My cousin is a dental hygienist and told me about 2 companies to check into..Delta Dental and DenteMax. She said they had reasonable plans but I haven't checked them out yet.

layoffs
the Heartland MTs did not get laid off because they wouldn't or couldn't do weekends, or for poor quality. They got laid off because of the bottom line. I know about the kids excuses, etc., but in this case, it was not the case. They were laid off through no fault of their own. My latest and greatest audit on a report MT'd and QA'd from India - Dictated: Pate is balding. Transcribed: Pate is bowing. If it wasn't so funny, I'd cry.
Layoffs
I didn't even get the invite to the conference call. I was working one day and started getting an error message that my account number was inactive. Through a series of emails and phone calls, I found out I had been laid off! Thanks a lot! I just found another job working as an IC. I think I'll be much happier!
the layoffs...
were about a year ago, so that's not current news. I felt the conference call was superior to any communication we have had in the past. She was up-front about the vendor situation and it sounded more hopeful and positive than previous quarterly meetings which focused on the business end -- this felt more personal and pertinent to what the MTs want to know. Any time I have emailed Patty she has been prompt to respond. The loss of the Santa Clara people (executive level), while unfortunate, would be expected in a business model like this. I agree with the reasoning that it was due to redundancy.
