Mine experience was the same..so I moved on...
nm
So your experience was not negative?
I thought they sounded decent until I read these posts, and was disappointed. I don't want to go out of the frying pan and into the fire. The only thing holding me back is I'm not sure I want to commit to FT.
I also had a negative experience here
She would never commit to a position with me even though I have 20 years' experience. I tried again with her another time and same modus operandi...


My experience was negative
but it was a while ago... so things may be different now.
Personally had a very negative experience.
Platform - antiquated. Supervisors - a mess.  Account - not much better. I was extremely disappointed, but should have posted here first. Generally a negative consensus.  I was a hospital employee, which is supposed to be the best, as opposed to their other offer of Diskriter employee. No thanks. Oh, yes, also very old equipment and unstable system. Wish there was a positive I could share, but I don't personally have one.
Just because one person had a negative experience...s/m
Does not mean that things will work that way for everyone, and I hope that everyone will remember that. I personally have never had any problems at all with anyone thus far at Transcend. I have had occasion to ask for an additional account or two, and have never been removed from my original accounts, but allowed to back into the other ones when work was low.

When I first cross-trained on these other accounts on this other platform, they asked me if I wanted to switch completely, but I simply told them I wasn't comfortable with that and that was the end of that discussion.

This other platform is a heavy VR platform, and it isn't BeyondTXT, but I have not found that I have lost a lot of money, as I can produce much more in an hour on VR. I average around 200-300 lines an hour on a straight typing account, and 400-600 on a VR account, so it evens out, really.

For those of you facing being merged with Transcend, please take everything you read with a grain of salt, and remember that your mileage may vary significantly from that of what others have experienced. It has been my experience that every situation will be what I make of it, and not to base my plans and decisions on what others have seen.
Try to be less negative? There is only negative here. It is a depressing way to start the day but

Have not moved around a lot
I have not jumped around a lot, worked for MRC when they were around years ago, then Medifax and Speris when it was Edix, now work for a small MTSO. Am happy but no benefits, no incentive, get paid the same as a new hire just out of school, kind of depressing.
Ask to be moved to something else...
I have heard the same thing about BeyondTXT. It seems like two different worlds.
how have you moved on if you are here....try
nm
I have moved on
and kept looking for other employment, but I didn't know if I needed to email her officially quitting or what (how ridiculous after all this time...).  I signed an IC contract, so I didn't know if that means I'm bound to anything.  I don't know how this works!!  Anyway, I'll just let it go and continue moving on - thank you everyone for the replies!! 
I do believe they all moved now.

Yes, she moved

out of state of Alabama.


Wow...you just moved yourself to the top...
of many people's NO WAY list.

Oh, and your confidentiality disclaimer probably doesn't stop her from distributing if she was the intended recipient.


Mine was moved to an IRA and then
I just moved it to my new company from there when I became eligible to get one from the new place.  Wasn't a problem at all.
If you have moved on, why are you still on this board? nm
mm
All the reasons I moved on
Gotta eat and like to actually get in touch with people.
I think she moved from Alabama, not sure...nm
xxxxx
just moved SS to the top of my list
If the word lie or liar was never implied, then what exactly did you mean when you wrote this in your earlier post:

Your original posting was filled with untruths

What exactly were you implying when you wrote that?


When I was there they ran out on all shifts, so I moved on. NM

Would this be DSG? Certainly what I noticed with the DQS software there. I moved on. nm
n
Wow! That's great....I think I just moved Amphion

to the top of my list!  Thanks!! 


They recently moved to another office.
One of my friends who was recently hired was about to train, but that did not push through as the network was still quite down and the telephone line changed.

I have been working with them for almost two months now.

At first I had lots of files to work on (thanks to a new account they recently just acquired). Nowadays, they are a-trickling! Maybe I should ask for another account.
I have friends who used to work for FN and moved on. sm
FN has more than their share of ESLs and you very well know it.  You are not only snippy, as someone said, you are condescending and misleading. 
This is not true. This thread was moved. (SM)
This thread belongs on the Company board and it was moved. However, in moving messages all replies are automatically deleted by the software.

It's a shame when a post gets moved
to another board/correct board - that posts made to it in the meantime are lost.  I've seen good replies lost that way. :(
You moved me from the main, to here, now I'm Lost! NM
nm
Is it possible your posts were moved to a different board? nm

Actually now these posts have moved to the top 1/2 of page

It just means it was moved to the appropriate board. nm

We don't have the pool any longer- we moved

A Mexican family.  So, I'm not paying for anything.  The pool installers were American and lazy, broke the filter, and took all day and night and brought theird kids to play on my swing set and requested soda.  The Mexican landscapers required no water, did not ask to use my toilet, and were done in one-half day with a lot of digging and a lot of stone work that would have taken a lot longer if they didn't work as hard as they did in the blazing sun.  The American installers did nothing but cuss, moan, and complain about the heat. 


As far as healthcare, we'll be paying more anyway once Hillary gives everyone who can't afford healthcare, free healthcare.  Too bad, Americans are too lazy to work harder and smarter.  I'm all American, born and raised, and I work very hard, but hey if the foreign entity comes along (like it did on my hospital job) and says they can do it cheaper, then what can I do?


Alltype moved all account to VR

Unless Oschner moved to Bangalore, no.. that is not the case.

I just do it as a second job so I don't get rusty. I've moved on to a completely different car

There is a lot of negatives in the archives, moving to another state doesn't change that.


 


Wow, that's awful! I recently moved to another state and they have a WF here sm
and I had thought of opening an account there, thinking it was a big national bank and might be the best bet -- thanks for the heads up!  I certainly do not need those kinds of headaches. 
I think that really does explain it! I bet those accounts will be moved by December though. nm
nm
I am happy for you that your accounts have not been moved to Beyondtxt yet! sm
I will be interested to here your opinion of the software when they are moved over in a few months.
I moved this post to the Company board. NM

Keystrokes BOUGHT an office rather than renting, moved
less than 20 miles away, kept the same phone number and sent out the address changes after settled in. What is wrong with that? Do we need to keep everyone in on every detail? If so, I should tell you that we added 14 phone lines to the dictation system.

Management has only added people and changed TWO in FOUR years. What company, in and out of transcription, has the same management team in place forever? People move on to other companies, other careers, take time off, etc.

No wonder the owners tell us all just to ignore the boards; some of the posts are ridiculous.

Just as an aside so you know the proper terminology, a transcriber is a machine; transcriptionists are the humans.
Not anymore. I think the nuts have moved on and the owner is less stressed now. I see a sm
a much calmer atmosphere this time around. I've been back just over a year and it is night and day from four years ago.
Must be MDI-FL. Has its moments. Either too much work or not enough. No happy medium there. Moved on
No thanks.
I moved MANY times, but it was because I was single and on a budget, not because I was irresponsible
I lived in 5 different addresses in 4 years. If my rent went up, I moved. If my roommates and I couldn't get along, I moved. When the apartment had a pervy landlord, I moved. There were very valid reasons for not keeping the same addy, and they had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with my responsbility. Then again, I had the same job throughout that whole time, which any recruiter would see from my RESUME that I gave them. No need to go nosing into my credit hx.
No, they built a new one last year and moved into it in October or November. sm
I think they have a really big office now, from what I heard.

I started as an IC with Keystrokes and moved to employee status after 90 days. nm

I left them over 4 years ago. Best thing I ever did. Moved to Webmedx. Quite happy. nm
.
Same thing happen with me and I finally gave up and moved on--different stokes for different folks!

It is not just a slow time....they lost a huge acct and moved many MTs to other accts.......
