They outsource to India. Broken down

a lot of times. Management stinks. Its better now with team leaders, but the top dogs are really low class nasty and payroll person is worst there is. Support from office and from the computer end of it is horrible. And don't count on 9 cpl. My friend and I got stuck at 8.5 and now they will not give raises. Accounts are horrible.

Do not outsource to India, outsource a small amount to Phillipines.

They outsource to India and..
when the recruiter was asked, she said she didn't know that for sure even though it is posted on their website.  When this was pointed out, I still couldn't get her to admit it.  I turned them down because I prefer straight answers and dont' work for companies who outsource to India.
I know they outsource to India sm

Whatever is not done by a certain point at night the send to India so that it is ready to edit in the morning.  I am surprised they are allowed to advertise for MTs on this site, but they DO outsource and I have this from the current recruiter.  They pay their American MTs pretty well, but on the backs of the outsourced stuff from what I can tell. 


For the record, I had an offer at the end of last year, didn't take it because it is outsourced.  As long as we support this sort of thing it will continue.  The minute we all refuse to work for a place like that, the sooner it all comes home.


So are you saying they don't outsource to India?
How long have you worked for them?
3 of the top 5 are companies who outsource to India

Companies who outsource to India
Include All Type Transcription in the group that outsource to India; they won't tell you up front but if you do QA you will find out immediately; all the work from India have to be 100% re-listened and re-QA'd - I wonder if All Type realizes a profit from this, after all they are paying India and the US MTs (sounds like double your money spending to me)...just my opinion.

All Type management isn't easy to work with, either. The owner hasn't been an MT for over 10 yrs and her right hand has never done transcription; dontcha just love someone who has never transcribed and only worked in our field for less than 5 yrs, telling you that 100 reports (from India MTs) have to be QA'd daily keeping in mind these are re-listened 100% voice to text!!

Sorry for the rambling, evidently I needed to get that off my chest...LoL
They'll outsource to India. nm.
I refuse to work for pay that low. I'm worth more than that.
Does MDI-FL outsource to India? I saw something a while back on here about MDI-FL MTs
not having enough work to keep them busy because when Transcend took over, the work got outsourced to India.  Is this still the case?
Does Transcent outsource to India? nm

Lets see.... they outsource to India, just cut holiday pay..
they change their policy manual so much that there is no way to keep up, the teamleaders are often rude and very sarcastic... I could go on and on.
yeah...if you like the fact that they OUTSOURCE to India..hence their name. nm

offshore (out of country) to India ... not outsource.

Jobs being sent to India - good companies who don't outsource
I've been working for a company for a few years now.  This company has started to remove several job types with greater turnaround times to India from our exiting accounts.  There was not enough work over the holidays to get in all of my hours (I know work is normally slow then), and this trend is still continuing.  We used to have a primary account and a secondary account as a back-up, but now I'm working on at least 5 or 6 accounts just to have enough work to complete my 8-hour shift. 
outsource to India; not enough work, ran out of constantly; some really nice people, though (nm)
xx
probably because they OUTSOURCE OVERSEAS...perhaps that number is reserved for the India account...?
Good luck to you...
offshore to India, it's OFFSHORE (off shore), not outsource to India.

Broken hearted
Well, hence my ID name, Happy MQer, I am becoming an unhappy MQer with all this info I read about what others are making. It really is frustrating to me. Makes me feel like crap. I know I am a low producer, usually only getting between 4000 to 5000 lines per pay, but still, I find it very unfair. The sad thing is that I really LOVE working for them.
sorry for my broken message.. sm
I meant that is where a lot of work is going at the place I work now.  If they are run by Indians, why not send the work that way instead of constantly running ads here?  Dumb question huh?
You sound like a broken record!
In every single one of posts you say the same things over and over. You sound like a cynical know-it-all.
Yes, sad reality we have here. Again, I saw broken promises and expectations. That's the name of
this game. How I wish it were different. If someone is luckily enough to have a decent job, it is either good pay, expensive insurance or bad pay, cheap insurance. You just cant wish. The only way to get 12 cpl is to get your own accounts, which is sometimes a pain too.
Cindy, you sound like a broken record, over and over and over
again. If I were management, would I not be throwing a name out there to get people on? Have you even done VR or are you 1 that is spewing out things you know nothing about? If you call my making around 20,000 little over a year big money, then you need to return to school and take math again. The problem with most on here is that they will sit around and wait for the work to trickle in to them rather than go out to get a job.I know the work situation is not the best in the world now but even before now I read where I have children and therefore cannot leave my house. The MTSOs probably know this, anyone can read this board. I had an old boss to read my postings before when I wrote against her company so I know they do. The money will continue on a downward spiral and basically the MTs here are just sitting back and waiting for it to happen. I would love to make what I did in the 80s/90s but those are times in the past for me. Thank goodness I do not have to make the big amounts as before but then I have worked so long now have social security coming in. Laughing when you say management, yeh with short term memory problems here!
Precyse. Disorganized, low work, broken promises.
nm
Never talked to the owner? No wonder you have not had broken promises. Consider yourself lucky!
.
Broken promises, messed up pay, endless drama. Good riddance!

Keystrokes-disorganized accounts, broken promises, moody owner

India, Michael. The MT world is going to India. Wonder why? nm

JLG outsource???
Anyone know if JLG outsources? I asked their HR person and so far have received no response. Very suspicious about that.
JLG Outsource???
They have advertised on boards using their "Vianeta or Arrendale" software. If you search Google for Arrendale software, you will see that Arrendale and CBAY formed a partnership.... Check past posts on CBAY. What do you think?
Do they outsource?
nm
MDI does not outsource but they do
overhire. Not a bad company overall, just have to fight for work a lot of the time.
Outsource

Do they outsource now? If not, they're planning it, big time. Companies need excuses to outsource, main one being they can't meet demand. Yeah, drop that line req down, that'll do it! Care to divulge company name?


they outsource and their pay is low nm
.
Outsource
MDI does not outsource but they were bought by Transcend who has been sending work to Florida. Just an FYI.
Not an outsource
No everyone there worked from home.  They also used Transcend for overflows.  It was a good place to work, but dayshift was years away.

I am 99.9% sure they do not outsource. nm

Boy do they outsource
The offshores get preference for the work.  Some of the managers are just awful, especially one in particular.   I mean downright nasty and not even available for questions. Big shakeups lately.
if they did HAVE to outsource all, tho,
or even a ton, it would be a QA nightmare and clients would finally have to ask - WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE?

sweeeet
They do more than outsource, as they have

an office in India. 


No, they do not outsource.

They do outsource, don't let them kid you
nm
no no NO! TT does NOT outsource sm

There is, however, an Indian company with a similar name that IS doing business in India.


I know it gets slammed on here for doing all kinds of things and I have never heard a word of truth about Transtech spoken here.


I did not say that they don't outsource
I said that not all of the team leads are in India.
Yes, Medware does outsource....sm
and they make no bones about it. However, they are not the only company to do so and more and more companies will likely be doing the same in the future. Like it or not, this is the future of medical transcription...to get the transcription done offshore and then have it edited by more qualified egocentric jerks like myself in the USA.

I think you have overstepped the boundaries of common decency in categorizing people who work for Medware or any other company who chooses to outsource their work. If you don't like it, you don't have to work there and don't have to associate with us, but it is a low blow to attack fellow members of your profession in such an unprofessional manner.
MDI does NOT outsource.. all work is done
on-shore. Transcend does outsource though (minimal).
