Precyse - no work

Posted By: Lori on 2007-05-17

Is this typical? I have only 2 accounts and never have enough work.  I have asked twice for an extra account with no response back.  Their TAT seems very quick so I'm wondering if they over-hire so they meet TAT and we sit here with nothing to do.  Haven't been here even a month but certainly can't afford this.

I used to work for Precyse and...

they are a good company.  They weren't for me because I am used to working my own schedule.  They require you to work specific hours (usually you can choose them) and I just couldn't do it with 2 small kids.  (If something comes up you can e-mail them and make up the time later.)


They provide all equipment.  Their QA staff is really great - positive and helpful.  You will most of the time get your QA stuff back within a few hours - always within 24 hours.  Their platform is easy to use.  I worked on quite a few accounts while I was there and they were all pretty decent.  One had some crummy ESLs as the majority, but I didn't work on it much so can't say if it would have gotten better with time and adjustment on my part.  (I usually adjust just fine to ESLs - these were mumblers as well)


They do have good benefits and you can accumulate PTO, which you can use at any time you wish - all or part of it.  So if you just need extra money one pay period, you can ask them to add it on.  You can also check your balance of PTO at any time.  Also, they have direct deposit and pay is always on-time - without exception.  They also mail you your stub and it always came exactly on time.  Also, the payroll person is very accessible for any questions, etc.  She even sent an e-mail out to us once because the paystubs (direct deposit was already in the bank) were late and she wanted to apologize - she had used a different post office.


The other thing that was a drawback for me, but you may not mind, is they do send out a lot of e-mails with account updates, asking for help, etc.  That's not so bad but it was 3-4 time daily thing and they started getting to me.  However, they do also offer bonuses quite regularly and other incentives too.  They do believe in motivation and recognition for those that go the extra mile.


Also, they do quarterly reviews and do value quality work. 


They are a good company overall.  I know you will see various opinions on this board about them, but the only 2 negatives for me were as above - the e-mails and the set hours.  Honestly, though, if it weren't that I was so bogged down with my children's schedules, I would have stayed with them.  If you can handle those things, then the positives outweigh the negatives. 


I work for Precyse
I have worked for Edix and Medquist in the past and Precyse is definitely a cut above those 2. It is a smaller company, but they are very good to work for and ....get this....they actually value their MTs!  They don't call you MTs or staff, but colleagues.  Everyone is respected equally here.  I have owned my own business and have worked for the other large nationals listed above, and feel that I have found my home.  I think you will be very pleased with Precyse.  Their platform is web based, called Correct Type (Precyse calls it PrecyseType, but it is the same web-based program we used at MQ).  Very user friendly.  Staff of Precyse is excellent.  It is not an easy company to get a job with, so if you have been offered a position, go for it!  I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
I *do* work at Precyse and most of the work is going to India
 
Is there consistent work at MDI-Fl, Precyse, or

Is there always lots of work at Precyse? Do they do

Anybody work for Precyse Solutions?
 Any feedback from their employees or ex-employees would be appreciated.  Thanks.
If you work for Precyse now, try calling the help desk, if not sm...

If you're not with Precyse now, you work on one of their PCs with everything already loaded.  My best guess would be to say "no, you can't use a laptop", but I never had to use one, so don't quote me on that. 


Hope this helps some

Am considering Precyse and would appreciate any feedback from gals/guys who currently work for this company. The good, the bad, and anything in between. Thanks.

Precyse
GO for it! I've owned my own company and worked for others. This is the classiest, best run, best paid, best benefits place I've ever found.
Precyse. sm
Is achieving a decent line count at Precyse easy to do? 
Precyse. sm
I have tested with them twice, they were slow responding.  Usually when I test I get an immediate response and job offer, they are a little slow in getting back.  Would like to hear from Precyse MTs - line counts reasonably achievable? 
Precyse
Been with Precyse 3+ years.  Their recruiting needs some big time attention.  They are rather selective about who they hire and quality is an issue.  In my experience, I have had no problem achieving my lines, including the bonus every pay period for lines over 12,000.  Of course I have been doing this for over 20 years! 
Precyse
I am not a newbie either.  I am switching companies trying to find a fit. Precyse cheats people with 20 years or plus experience on line counts.  You are told, you will get feedback from every report, Not so, if you are very capable.  I have done a lot, a lot of lines.  Worked all day the day before I quit with all my macros, stayed focused and had 600 lines.  That has never happened to me before, even with learning curve.  I do 12-500  a day, until I met them.  I finally figured out, they don't pay for headers, so why should I do them?  I don't think they pay for footers either.  I am running back to my old job as soon as I can, at least they don't steel lines.
Precyse/MDI

I've worked for both these companies.  The platform is Webcorrect (DocQScribe).  I happen to love that platform and I managed 1200 to 1400 lines in 6-7 hours - yes, relatively easy to get.  I did all consultations and ERs (didn't like being stuck in these work types and ended up, after about 4 months, not getting any ERs).  If you didn't like the old Edix management, you probably won't like Precyse.  For the most part, though, other than a couple of snippy QA and supervisors, they're not bad. 


As far as MDI goes, I did voice recognition for them for a few weeks.  The platform  I worked on was Escription - easy.  The problem is, VR doesn't pay well (about half) and it is very possible to spend lots of time on these reports.  Spent about 70% of the time on VR and the rest typing.  These folks seemed unorganized and no one was available.  If you're a self-starter, you'll do fine.


In my opinion, Precyse is the better, more structured company with much better benefits.  The pay is always on time, every other week.  If you don't like DocQScribe (Webcorrect), though, don't go there. 


Good luck to you.  Wish you the best.

And I think Precyse too?

Precyse does too

Precyse

Do they pay well? Annual raises?  Do they pay on time?  Do they put you on too many accounts?  Is platform fast enough?  Is their line counting system fair?


Any other comments appreciated.


Thanks


Precyse

As I said before, each MT has to find a company that fits their needs and schedule.  I've been with Precyse going on 4 years (they are only 6 years old) and love it.  Pay is good, I always have work (of course I work a split shift by choice and there is always work), and have been on the same 2 accounts the whole time.  They do not hold your hand, you have to be independent, but I like that.  I never have PC problems, paycheck problems, or problems achieving my lines.  I love their PTO account and the fact that it adds up so quickly.  I've been doing this a long time and by far this is best national I have worked for thus far. 


That's my 2 cents!


Try Precyse, could get 9-10 cpl
Good benefits, too.
Precyse

anyone working for Precyse or know anything about them?  thanks


Precyse

I just called the Precyse telephone number and used the prompts for employment opportunities, and medical transcription.  The automated voice said, Just a minute, please...  Then there was screeching, like a fax machine!  ROFL!


Anybody know a better way to contact them?  I took their on-line test last week, and I just wanted to follow up.


Precyse...

I have looked in the archives.  Awhile back it seemed there were mostly good things to say about them.  Now I see more negative posts.  Is someone reading this who wouldn't mind it if I Email and ask some specifics?  TIA. 


Precyse uses it too.
 
Precyse MTs, (sm)
I will be training on Precyse soon.  Just wondered if you guys had any pointers about getting started off on the right foot.  Also, do any of you use your own PC or do you use theirs? 
Precyse

I am thinking about looking into Precyse. Does anyone have any really bad experiences with them such as lack of work etc.? 


I believe Precyse does too. -nm

Precyse
 all,

Does anyone know anything good or bad about Precyse, preferably from others that work for them or have worked for them? Interested in possibly checking them out and applying, but have not heard much about them. Likes, dislikes, benefits, requirements, etc., etc. Do they require you to have your own computer or rent from them? Do they have full-time, part-time or SE status? Basically anything you could offer in terms about the company would be great.
Precyse
Hmmm, I find it very interesting that someone would encourage you to stay with MQ and see if it gets better...amazing.  I've worked there too on my rounds of nationals and it isn't pretty.  I will continue to say that Precyse is a great company to work for, been there 4+ years and have no desire to look anywhere else.  In truth, I cannot give you any input regarding the QA positions (I've been offered one, but hate QA work, prefer transcribing---and I make more money that way).  I can tell you from an MT standpoint (and having done QA at other companies), they are consistent and constructive with the quarterly reviews and YES, they actually do the quarterly reviews, not just claim to do the reviews like others I have worked for in the past.  That's my 2-cents.
Precyse

To anyone who has applied, how long did it take Precyse to get back with you after you completed the test at mttest.com?  Thanks so much.


Precyse
Anyone have anything to say about Precyse?  Good or bad?
Precyse
I left MQ, went to Precyse, now back at MQ. Precyse is wonderful when recruiting, then ditch you without answering emails, phone calls, etc. Because I tested high score they gave me their absolute worst accounts (verified by QA who was frustrated when I quit shortly after starting .... I was one of many).
Precyse does.

 Just got a job with Precyse and it sounds like an awesome company; people are so nice, not like MQ.  They said we will work as a team, wow, never had that at MQ.  I am so happy.  Rad Transcriptionist for 23 years and finally going to be appreciated.  Benefits and sign on bonus.  Free equipment and reimbursement for internet connection every three months 60.00.  I cannot wait to get started. 
precyse
I also start Precyse Tuesday. I'm really excited. My pay is actually better than it was with MQ with the new rewards plan. I have been in contact with a Precyse employee and she has nothing but good things to say about them. I don't think any company is perfect. I'm just glad to be getting away from MQ and moving on to something better. Good luck to ya!
Thanks Precyse MT
I need some encouragement, after 13 years with the company from hell.
Precyse
To all looking for Radiology transcription full-time at home Precyse is hiring and they are the most nicest considerate people I have ever met.  Check out their web page for what they offer.  I reviewed the boards about Precyse and found only 1 or 2 negatives. 
Precyse
Thanks for the feedback. I just applied, already took the tests, so here's hoping!
Precyse
Agree 100% If Pam is still the QA manager there, you are in the right place. She is tops. What you don't already know you will absolutely learn there.
precyse
I just started with Precyse and the communication has been wonderful. I have had emails and calls like crazy. I would try and call your supervisor, make sure she's not on vacation or something.

They have been running out of work.

Someone is calling me today regarding more information on the job.  I am reluctant to take a 3rd shift position but, at this point, I might accept it because I need to make a change.

Has anyone had contact from Precyse after accepting a position recently?
