Last year offering 8 cpl w/spcs on 1100+ lpd, 8.5 cpl for 1400+ lines. nm

Guess we all can't be put on good accts. Gotta be there at the right time. Both of my accts.
s
It is not just a slow time....they lost a huge acct and moved many MTs to other accts.......
nm
TWS 3.8, just seems strange for this time of year. I have 3 accts. NM
xxxx
Last year, they had accts w/their own software and some with ExText.
s
1100 lpd for FT, good sound quality, ExText software, LOTs of ESLs..nm
s
I also got put on 2 atrocious ESL accts with them last year. Couldn't make any lines. These dudes
s
Was there a short time last year. You work as an employee, not IC. Different software/diff. accts.

I went through this last year. I was offered

a position and accepted, an acute care account doing all Ops.  My company was having issues and I thought I needed to make a change, but I was scared of a change.  I had been at the company 5 years, had easy platform, easy lines, comfortable with my dictators, plenty of work, etc.....   I called the next day and told them I decided to stay where I was.


Fast forward 6 months and my company lost my account, which was major one and not enough work to go around, plus the company had been telling us lies and were very unethical when all details became known.  At this time I had no choice but to make a change.  I did not contact KS, but went with another company. 


It has been a bit of a struggle having to learn all the new stuff.


My thoughts are if you were happy where you were you wouldn't have been looking in the first place.   You either have to accept the difficult situation at current position or make the change where things will be rough for a couple of months, but you might be better in the long run. 


I know how hard it can be having recently gone through it.


 


 


 


I was offered a job there last year...
and they offered me .85 per 65-character line, but it was not in the field I type in, so I turned it down.  They were very nice to me and always called when they said they would.  There was a minimum of 1,000 lines per day/5,000 a week when I looked into it last year, I don't know if that has changed any.  And then there is an incentive schedule for more lines, I think they increase your pay by .01 cent and so forth for up to 2,000 lines per day.  They pay twice a month, direct deposit.  They do deduct for transcribed errors/error values.  I can't remember the platform they use...I know it is one I have not used before.  I hope this helps.  Good luck with them! 
I was offered 9 cpl, but that was about a year ago and
I've heard they're really going downhill since then. 
I was offered a position about a year ago
and did not take it as you had to be on call every third week at night with a pager for stats.
I was offered 8 cpl last year, experienced. Didn't take it. nm

I was offered a job with MDI a year ago before I was hired at Keystrokes - SM
They told me that I probably wouldn't want to leave my other job as I probably wouldn't have enough work, and that the account they would put me on was VERY heavy ESL and needed unlimited long distance. That was a big turn off for me! I then accepted a position with Keystrokes right after that, and a year later I'm still glad that I did!
I was offered less than 7cpl this year with 10+ yrs experience.

I have no good accts, all ESL. nm

So are all you Spheris posters able to make pretty good money there? .... sm

I have more than 25 years in this business, and I have always just steered clear of this company, but I either need to change who I work for or I need to supplement. 


I see they have production incentives, which I like.  I'm guessing you all like their system, if you are happy there.  How about their benefits - are they affordable?  Do you think their base pay is fair?  Are they flexible at all when it comes to you working your hours?  Are you happy with your account(s)?  Thanks for any specific info! 


Howdy! In the last year, I applied and got offered jobs at a minumum of 10 companies
and not ONE single place checked any references - not 1.  Even the one who said they would, Diskriter, never made 1 call. Do you feel lucky??
A year ago, I was offered 8 cpl for experience and I needed my own Word 2003. I turned them down. nm
s
*good morning* !! Accts are not named here! NM
NM
I started there about a month ago. My two accts are good. Not sure on the switching nm

You were given too many specialties/accts to make any good money.
s
12 hour window on my accts - pay for acute good. (sm)
Work flow steady, weekend and shift differentials, OT offered at times.

I think things are different for some people depending on the TAT and specifics for their accounts.

Talk to a recruiter, they can give you much more info.


USAMedTran Good or Bad....feeling lost
I need some information on this company.  I need to know if it is worth my time to apply with them.  I passed their test a few months ago and was offered a position with them.  I had already accepted a position with Amphion and so I turned it down.  I am now wondering if I made a mistake.  Amphion is turning out to be not what I thought it would be.  The workload has gone from overflowing to next to nothing.  Now I am getting emails about my production not being met.  Well when my primary account runs out of work in 4 hours and my secondary usually has next to nothing how am I suppose to make production?  Also I think the pay is really low.  I am frustrated and don't know where to go from here.
Maybe...maybe not...but they have sure lost A LOT of good MTs because of bad business practices
x
Are any MTs still with Precyse that complained of losing their good accts a few months ago? If so,
s
How many accts did you experience in 3 days? Been there for a few months and so far so good. I find
but compared to where I was the lines sure do add up, and I absolutely love my acct, supervisor, tech people and QA! All have been great!!
I hated it there, they sent good accts to India (spheris global). nm

Huge turnover at OSi. They have lost most of their good employees and are
Me thinks this nutcase is asking and answering questions here hoping to get people to apply.

Check the archives here on OSi....bad news!!!
that pays late constantly - lost many good MTs.
x x
Most people get lucky and get good accts. I was also one put on an acct that had me leaving para
s
And you are no longer a hiring manager and probably lost out on a LOT of good people
because of how you handled it. HMMMM??
How are the MW accts that use the ExText? Good sound? Lots of work? Acute care or clinic? Thx. nm
s
they offered me a position.....good or bad?

Offered pay for 6 months experience... any good?

I got offered a position to type some reports in a specialty I have been typing for 6 months.  I was offered 7cpl for 65 character line.  Does not pay for hard returns, tabs, empty lines, headers, footers are not paid.  Spaces between words are. 


At my other position I was getting 6cpl including hard returns. 


How do I figure out if this new offer is equal or better than what I already had? 


Yes, I know neither are high paying.  I am new to the industry, only finished my course 7months ago.  BUT, this particular specialty is easy for me and I have very high marks with QA.


Any and all advise is welcome.  Thanks!


I have a good friend who was recently offered a job there - SM
She has 7 years of full-time experience, and they offered her 6 cents per line for acute care/basic 4! I couldn't believe it when she told me! Needless to say, she took a job somewhere else that paid much more than that!
I have a good friend who was offered a job there this winter - SM
She has 8 years of full-time experience, and they offered her 6 cpl for acute care! What a joke! They wouldn't even budge on the line rate. They told her that was their only and final offer. Needless to say, she didn't accept the position!
Oh, I see! I was offered a QA position there. I'm a good old American!!! nm

Sure, have lost patience, never lost sense of acting

Offered Job with Webmedx, Any Info? Good, the bad, the ugly??
The offer sounds really good.  I would like to hear from current Webmedx'rs and see how you like it.  Are the production incentives as good as they sound?  The benefits??? Thanks in advance for any information to help me with my decision. 
Have been offered EXTREMELY good position with All Type Inc.....sm
I unfortunately need to look for a new company, due to the fact that my MTSO has lost accounts and mine is one of them....I really love working with her.  Anyway, looking elsewhere, All Type seems really wonderful, super-nice recruiter, IC status, flex schedule, very good cpl rate, choice of work-types, etc.  Is this too good to be true, does anyone have experience here....cannot find much in search.  TIA!!!
Ugh .. that's not good news. They offered me a position awhile back sm
but I went somewhere else.  Now they sent me a thing again, listing their benefits,and it sounded pretty nice.  I guess there is no such thing as the perfect job. 
webmedix- I have 25 years exp., was offered low rate of pay. Heard it is a good company. nm
nm
Got offered 1.5 cent/line this past week....she said her editors tell her they make good $$....
.
QT lost jobs lost dreams
webmedx is hiring but they may already have enough people, I got a job there last week.  No matter what kind of bull you are hearing from management or otherwise is a lie.  The account is gone, please look for new jobs
good point!!!! summer off plus 5 weeks during the year
if i had my life to live over.... a teacher has the best life
This year they chose one that really is a good company to work for. nm
