In Reply to: Precyse versus Transcend - anon
I don't know about precyse, but I am in the training process with Transcend for part time work (they also do FT) and so far everything is good. Benefits are okay (they pay them) and I have no complaints !!!! Very helpful support for both typing and tech.

Transcend or Precyse.
I have offers from both. Precyse offered much better pay but it is at night. They seemed really friendly and wanting me to come aboard. When they offered me that I thought I could handle the graveyard shift, but now I am getting cold feet. My main concern about them is adjusting to their hours. Transcend offered less pay but they have normal daytime hours available. However, I have read negative posts about them having no work available, which is my concern about them. With Transcend, however, I would get to use my own computer and not have to make room in this little bitty house for another. It can be done though. I am kind of stressed out on which way to turn. Any advice or opinions? TIA.
Precyse versus Transcend
Any info on recent experiences with either company would be much appreciated, especially interested in benefits provided by each - affordable or not. Thanks

Thanks
precyse solutions or transcend?
anyone work for these firms?
Transcend and Precyse jobs
Pay offered to prospective employees for VR accounts for these companies is very very low. Is anyone accepting positions at this rate? I am wondering how they are finding ANYONE to fill these positions, and if they are finding folks to work for pennies per line it may further undercut MT wages for VR.
PLEASE if anyone works for either of these companies doing VR would like to hear your comments.
Transform, Transcend, Precyse, OSI, MQ...am I forgetting anybody? sm
I know good is a relative term when speaking of companies but of these who really stands apart? Anybody or all they all the same. I prefer part time with flexibility but if I work FT, I'd rather be an employee with a good line rate and affordable benefits (don't we all?) Any of these fit the bill? Specifics please. Thanks!
Transcend bought MDI, so if Transcend sends work offshore, so does MDI. nm

We heard Transcend is buying Keystrokes next. I'm not working for Transcend. No Way !

If MDI-FL is owned by Transcend and Transcend admittingly offshores, sm
then doesn't that make MDI a company that offshores? That's like saying that one branch of a company offshores but another does not, so they are excluded from the offshore label. If MDI-FL is part of Transcend and Transcend offshores, that means that they do.
RE: If MDI-FL is owned by Transcend and Transcend admittingly offshores, sm
Your hypothesis is incorrect. MDI is a wholly independent subsidary of Transcend, therefore, they were not a part of the experiment to offshore to evaluate cost/benefit ratio that Transcend only tried for 90 days (I believe the evaluation process is not still ongoing).
It is not Transcend. Transcend has not had control of
the accounts long enough to make any changes to anything. Maybe your account just slowed down like a lot of others did over the last few weeks. Everything will run status quo for a few months before any major changes are implemented. And give Transcend a chance. It is a good place to work and you will finally have some benefits that you will enjoy.
Precyse
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.
Hope this helps. Email me for any further questions about where I work now.
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.
Precyse
They have been running out of work.

Precyse
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.
Precyse
Has anyone had contact from Precyse after accepting a position recently?
Precyse QA...sm
Has anyone heard back from Precyse regarding the QA positions they had advertised the past couple of weeks? I'm wondering because I was called for three separate interviews, then nothing. I haven't heard back in over a week. I thought about calling them, but then I wonder if maybe this is some kind of sign??!!
Precyse
I heard from them right after I submitted resume. Had an interview with recruiter which went very well. Two days later had a second interview with someone in management. I thought that went well, too, and was told I'd be hearing from a third interviewer. I heard nothing more in spite of leaving messages with the management person and an e-mail with recruiter. That was 2 weeks ago. I finally gave up. I was disappointed since they sounded like a very good company... sigh.
Precyse
I've been with Precyse for almost 4 years and have absolutely no complaints on my end. If you want to know anything specific, please Email me. Everyone has an opinion, and I respect that, but the positives with this company far outweigh the negatives (and I've worked for other nationals).
Precyse
Thanks for the information. I may apply there. I have never used Medrite before and have worked for other places where their platform was horrible!
Thanks again. Lucy
