That post bashed 7 companies, and
Posted By: Misha on 2007-05-19
In Reply to: missing the point - as always
went on to say the good companies never get mentioned. Well whose fault is that? I'm working for one of the 7 due to word of mouth. If you had posted about a better company, maybe I'd have applied there. But do you actually know what these better companies are? Instead of bashing companies, you should be praising the good ones. Now that would be helpful!
Otherwise it sounds like you're just telling fairy tales.

but a great post - my company gets bashed all the time too.

I'm guessing the reason these companies won't put their names is afraid they will get bashed.
I'm not sure why else they wouldn't be proud enough to put their company name. Pretty sad..
Don't let it get to you. Every day it is a new company that is being bashed. sm
Those of us who are happy at Keystrokes know we have a good thing going. Those who either didn't cut it, were never hired or continue to job hop are never going to be happy anywhere or if they are, it is for a short time and they come on here and bash the company they went to.
One of the posters on here is someone that I know well and she used to post positive things about how she left MQ for KS, left KS to go back to MQ, left MQ again to go to KS and now complains that they did not give her a good account. Would you? Personally, I would make someone who leaves and comes back prove themself. I just listen to her vent when we talk and move on, knowing that the next time we talk, it will be to vent about the new company she went to. And so it continues ...
Please tell me where I have constantly bashed
Axolotl. Do you have me confused with someone else?
I will probably be bashed by the naysayers,
but I'll answer anyway. I work Sun-Thu on 1 account at MDI. I am committed to 800 lpd but my account is always needing extra help. This Saturday alone, my day off mind you, I got in an extra 800 lines. Now before I am accused of stealing other people's lines, we were asked to work extra on the account to keep it in turnaround time. My hours vary from day to day - but since I'm only committed to 800 lpd, I can usually get them in in under 4 hours. I generally work an hour in the morning (9-10), 2 hours in the afternoon (1-3) and 1 hour in the evening usually after 9 or 10. No weird graveyard hours or anything.
I guess your experience at MDI would really depend on the account you get. I guess I must be one of the lucky ones because my experience with MDI has been great thus far. I hope it continues. For those who are hitting a rough spot, I hope it smooths out.
I really don't have anything negative to say about MDI. For that, I'll be bashed on this board, but that's okay because I've got tough skin.
I am still really amazed about that MT who bashed the co this week for being fired because of her
poor quality! You rarely see an MTSO fire an MT because of poor quality (boy would I love to see it having seen some of the poor quality that is sent to the facilities) because there are some who are just given so many chances that they do not deserve. They need to be weeded out and continue to be weeded out and for one to publicly come on here and bash an MTSO for doing what they had to do really has stuck in my mind.
I still think MTSOs really need to be a cut above the MTs when it comes to going off but yes I do understand that sometimes they just have to say something.
I agree! Too busy to be on here and too disgunted with being bashed to want to open myself up sm
to that anymore. Happy at Keystrokes, that's all I need to say.
They won't. It is common for a company to be bashed into the ground once it seems people are hap
I knew it was going to happen once I saw the positive posts about Keystrokes. Some people obviously get sick thrills from stirring the pot.
I hope they're happy now. I am sure Keystrokes will miss out on some great MTs because they won't apply due to the posts that have been put the last few days.
Can't anyone accept that there really is a good company out there?
Email me for details. Don't feel like getting bashed on here today!

Nope. We just get sick and tired of our company getting bashed
at every turn. We love this place and have run out of patience with posters like this who clearly have no idea what they are talking about.
Have you never lost your patience?
there are various reasons as to why companies post over and over again - sm
For instance, I was working with one company that had tons of applicants. However, they were calling back people they fired in the past and offering them jobs. Other companies I have worked with just like to have applicants on file and if one in particular jumps out at them, they will call and test that applicant even though they may not have a "new" account per se.
And of course, there is the old standby reason - no one qualified for the position, so they are reposting it.
These are the companies I got from a post a week or so ago...SM
MDI Florida, Medical INK, AccuStat Carolinas, Proveras, Sten-Tel, Focus, Chase.
not all companies post jobs here -
why bother being so rude.
Ask about specific companies in a new post, please.

Wonder why these companies post jobs
with low line rates but requiring years of experience. Who out there is desperate enough to fall for this? Maybe they should try an overseas job board somewhere.
See post above--message to all companies (nm)
Post your resume on the job boards. Most companies
want 2 years of recent experience, but with your extensive experience I'm sure some companies would be willing to offer you a chance, but could depend on the disability. If the disability was due to mental health issues you might have problems more than if you had a physical disability.
companies that do not post line rate...
In some of these postings (I'm talking mostly about the big nationals here), the recruiters spend LOTS of time talking about what they have to offer but are noticeably silent about line rate. If a company has so much to offer, it should be proud of the line rate it is offering. It always seems like they are trying to rope me in in some way & then will spring the bad news on me once they have a captive audience, like a bunch of used car salesmen.
If I don't see a line rate next to pay/compensation I just substitute embarrassingly low & move on to the next listing.
I've had the thought that the listings should be divided into Big National and MTSO --- and within that, willing to show line rate and not willing to show line rate.
Anyone else?
That may be but if companies can't post ads without company names,
nm
Others will post that work for these companies, there are some great
people that post on this board, you just have to overlook a few. Unfortunately I do not work at any of these companies, otherwise I would be glad to give you any information needed. Good luck though!
Maybe because not ALL companies post there. He/She just asked a simple question!

I think the point was to POST names of good companies for all MTs to see,
x
What happened to my post with an inquiry for companies that have clinic work available in the
mornings (not in the afternoons or evenings)? I did not think there was anything inappropriate in my message and thought it was on the correct board. Thanks.
I so wholeheartedly agree with you. Don't work for KS but work for SS - another company bashed
Works GREAT for me and I love SS. I never really care what the negatives are as I have found they are usually people that can't make their lines, don't work the hours they commit to or just overall do not care!
My post should say the post above not the post below, Sheryl's post to be specific. nm

MTStars
TransTech and Medware, are these companies considered large, medium-sized or small companies? (sm)
TIA
It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors
ROFL
Yikes.. That is only inline with companies like Focus and such. "Real" companies pay their MTs
decent rate. I make over 5 cpl editing. So, if I got that slap in the face, I'd be outta there.
You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post
will be removed. It was up last night and post got removed.
Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.
zzzzz
Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
Do the research...most companies, and not just MT companies, do not pay for maternity leave...
we get time off but not paid...and I really don't even understand the point of you posting this...
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make. I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me. We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level. Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination. The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner. Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter. Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter.
How do you know which companies are Nationals and which are smaller companies.
Is there a list somewhere? I'm new to this.
By "most of the companies", I meant MORE than MT companies.
clarification
Sten-Tel is the platform. Different companies use it, pay and how companies run are different. nm
:P
everytime you post, where ever you post
unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site. There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry. For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
Post removed, you can re-post.

Nobody said MT companies were not for profit companies. (sm)....
As MTs we are an important segment of what it takes for the company to thrive, but we are still just part of the whole structure.
Not trying to be argumentative, just think sometimes we get that "I'm the quarterback" attitude and forget that we can't get anywhere without our line men.
Companies that outsource to other companies?
Anyone know of any reliable companies that will outsource to American companies and pay a decent line rate? I am amazed at what the companies charge and then want to offer in this business anymore.
Last post
No, after I read a followup yesterday that said there were apologies and answered Michelle, I realized that and someone said to just get back to work and they were right.. even an apology was too much, plus it would look like I was just tagging along after JMO, which is what you are accusing me of now.
I just didn't understand where the posts went, it was odd, and I wanted to reiterate some things (the point I mentioned earlier, about seeing BOTH sides), but I see it really doesn't matter WHAT I say, you've already made up your mind about me and my motivations without even knowing me. Why am I explaining myself to you? I dunno.
It doesn't matter. Good luck to you and don't worry, God will take care of/deal with me, and I ask him to bless you all too.:)
TO POST ABOVE, AT MQ 6 YRS....sm
Would you please e-mail me at jcarros213@aol.com. I "really" need information.
TIA
This post should have gone under OP.
