What is up with OSI (in Georgia) these days?

They used to advertise on here all the time but stopped when the boards revealed the truth about their poor management and offshoring.  I am thinking about returning only because they do have yearly raises and good benefits.  What would hold me back is if they have the same ditzy unqualified, condescending QA ~manager~ and if they still micromanage through the darn IM.  Someone please tell me things have changed for the better.  I am running out of work on my present job and am late on my bills.

That is what I just said. !0 days PTO, period. That includes vacation, sick days and personal days
They should have paid holidays so that you are paid if you take off. Also should inculde extra hours for sick days and personal days.

That annual raise of .002 is kind of a joke especially when at the same time they upped the minimum line requirement from 10,000 lines to 12,000 lines.

OSi just does not have the qualified people in management positions that I wish to work for.

I am glad that you are happy at OSi and all is working out for you. Their dishonesty and the way they treat people just does not work for me.

Of course they can get by cheaply by hiring unqualified people so that is very good for the owners.
You bill 30 days behind, and they snail mail it so it's late - about 40 days from invoice
No way jose - they even messed up their direct deposit payments
Maybe she/he works 14 hour days/7 days a week? nm

Would that be 5 business days or 5 regular days?
So when are we going to be paid this time around since you're so knowledgable?

Sorry, but for some of us a day or 2 actually makes a difference.
Most want 20 hours over 5 days, but it could be more, or it could be spread over 4 days. nm

Correction - TH has 5 PTO days 1st year/10 days 2nd yr

It is true. Any job has its good days and bad days.
Perhaps you'd like to just keep your old job and try this one out. Just because a poster here is crabbing about it, or even if as in the past there have been negative posts, odds are that there are very happy people who don't even post or know that this board exists. As Alice says. Everything is relative. The fact that this company is hiring and pays may be a place which is a blessing. As opposed to digging ditches on day labor for example. Or somebody might prefer digging ditches. This is just an example. Sometimes we who are employable, even though we don't make as much as we used to in this business, or as much as we would like to, we still if working at home do not pay for gas to go to work, career clothes, deal with office politics, have to look at a boss who writes us up if we are a minute late, etcetera. I don't make half as much as I used to, but I don't send my 3 children to day care which by the way saves us money. SO I remind my husband I am worth that in addition to my salary if I had a job outside. No job is perfect. I am not even sure if Focus is any good or not, I have not worked there. But if one poster says there are good days and bad, I say that is the most honest answer you are going to get anywhere, and if you need a job badly, how is it to hurt trying it out, until you know for sure for yourself? THanks for listening. But sometimes this board gets to be a bit much with the agendas of people railing on other people like the OP here who just wanted all opinions instead of just one side. Balance is always great. And, if things seem lop-sided, then it is a good thing to seek out both sides. IMHO.
I think they would. Those are good days for 10-hour days. sm
I have a set schedule but it is Tues-Sat and it works well for me. It wouldn't hurt to ask!
90 days is correct. 3 days off 1st year, 10 during 2nd.

Does anyone have any information about this company, good or bad?  I didn't find anything when doing a search on this site. Thanks!
I am in Georgia......

Would you please e-mail me information.  I would love to apply.


Georgia.
They use IChart.
OSI of Georgia
Yes, I'm positive.  After a lovely conversation with a recruiter, I was emailed a lot of paperwork, and this statement was on one of the pages.  This is not hearsay; I saw it myself.  This was earlier this year; Im thinking it was March.  Maybe it is something new, or something that was only on that particular account, but it was a paper that I was supposed to sign in agreement to being paid minimum wage if the client did not pay.
Its the one in Georgia

peachtree in Georgia?
Great company! I got paid what was quoted and then after 90 days was given 4 cent raise (paid per minute) which I was unaware was coming. I send my bill on the 1st of the month and the check is in hands within seven days. If it is the same company, I personally have nothing but good things to say about them.
This sounds EXACTLY like OSI in Georgia

In Georgia any check above $600 that bounces can....sm

be just cause to have the writer of the check thrown into jail.  Go to the  sheriff's office and have them take out a warrant for the person who signed out the check - just be sure to show the bounced check to the sheriff's department.  You're also allowed by Georgia law to place a lien against the business and that in turn keeps the business from getting a loan. 


I'd advise this friend to stop working for anyone that bounces a check, and if they continue working then tell the company that payment is due in cash up front, i.e. when you pay me $1000 in cash up front then I'll do $1000 worth of work and won't do any more until you pay me another $1000. 


Anything re: Peachtree transcription out of Georgia
I would like the good and bad of this company.  I am considering and would be interested in hearing.   I have been with other national companies and just want to hear the scoop.  If interested in talking over the phone, I can call.

Anyone ever heard of Heart of Georgia?  I have accepted a rad position here because another keeps on telling me I can start soon, yet it has been 2 weeks and counting and I'm sitting here broke with nothing to do. 
Has anyone ever heard of InfoPro out of Georgia...(sm)

A friend of mine looking for MT work mentioned it today and I googled them.. Found a website but don't really know anything else about them such as running out of work, flexible schedule, benefits, pay, etc.  If anyone can give me any information I would appreciate it.  Not to be confused with Interpro.  TIA.


Anyone work for Heart of Georgia.

How is it to work there?  Are you able to get the lines and make decent money in an 8-hr day with it being 75-char line?  That seems like a really long line.


TIA


Eagles Landing in Georgia ...sm

Does anybody know if they have moved their company to Tennessee?  The only Eagles Landing transcription company I am seeing is in Tennessee.


TIA!


Echo Transciption Inc. in Georgia SM

I really like it there a lot.  We have tons of work, excellent feedback from QA, great boss to work for, good pay.  I spot check their counts against my count on MSWord (characters with spaces divided by 25) from time to time, and it is always exactly the same or 1 line more on DocQScribe.


Their website is http://www.echoti.com.


Good luck!
