Precyse Solutions -- I've read the archives and I'm looking for updated ...
responses. Is there anybody here that's actually happy working for Precyse? Are most folks making decent money there?

Thanks.
Read the archives, lots of info there.
 
Opinions on Focus. Please. I read all archives. Please most recent info. Thanks. NM

Any recent info on Landmark? I've already checked the archives. Thanks!

Frequent turnover, offshore big time. Read the archives, lots of info on them. nm
 
AccuStat in Wisconsin. What's going on with them lately? I worked for them last year, am thinki
of contacting them again.  Is anyone on this board still working there? How is the work flow now?  Any comments? 
Please read BEFORE you respond - they asked about the WI Accustat and you gave very WRONG informatio
gg
I've been with AccuSTAT WI for 7 years. We don't use VR. We used MS Word to type in and depe
on the accounts, Dictaphone C-phone, regular c-phone or Lanier VXP player.
Would appreciate any info on Accustat. TIA. NM

Info on AccuStat Carolinas
Does anyone have any current info on the status of AccuStat Carolinas?  I heard a rumor they may have shut down, but it could be they have just moved to a new office location or something.  Anyone know?
Does anyone have UPDATED info on AccuStat Carolinas? TIA

Archives only go back as September 2005, I believe.  Thanks


Read the archives. Hardly a day goes by that

someone asks info on a company that was just discussed the day before.  There are other forums besides this one too where you can get info on companies.  Post your resume on the various job boards.  There are companies that do not post ads but hire from the resumes.   My current position I was hired from my resume and I have been offered a couple of other positions from companies who contacted me from my resume who did not post ads. 


I work for a good company and honestly they are not hiring.  Other MTs do seem to get upset when people will not tell them what company they work for.  I don't believe they are afraid of losing their job to someone else (at least for the most part I don't), but they don't want the company to overhire.  There are many posts on the boards about people not having work for days on end because companies are overhiring. 


All you have to do is read the archives.
Overall it seems that most MTs are very happy.   BTW I am not a TT MT. 
Read through the archives. There have

been posts about them just above every well.  They are an Indian run company. 


Read the archives. I did QA and did not like it.

Read the archives and then RUN.

Why not read the archives?

Info on Keystrokes, Deventure & Accustat Wisconsin

If you read through the archives you'll see not
much good about this company, especially from people who refused to listen to the issues that others had and went to work for them anyway.  They offshore big time, constant turnover.   I wouldn't consider it.        
They were actually one of the companies I was looking at until I read the archives..it seems
they haven't changed at all with the negative responses this time around.  Thanks for the warnings! 
If you read the archives you should find what you are looking for, although

you won't find much good about them.  


If you read the archives you won't find much

good about them.  They switch you from account to account. They have had management problems for many years.  Their line counting is difficult to figure out and they dock you for lots of things.  They also offshore and are currently training women in Trinidad and somewhere else so you know what that means.   Some of their accounts are teaching hospital and I worked on one of them and the dictation quality was horrendous.  If you're a newbie I doubt they'd put you on it though. 


There are worse companies out there, but I still wouldn't recommend TRS. 


 


Read the archives. Someone else just asked about
them this week.   They are not a good company. 
Read the archives. Lots there, most of it not
good.   Someone else asked about them this week so scroll through the board. 
Read the archives. Someone asks about them
almost daily. 
You must do a search and read OSI archives

read the archives. also, low work
times outside of the holidays is just plain poor staffing, which can be done so that everyone has enough and the work is kept up. It has been done. Problem is, getting people to do more when there is a slam. No incentives for it? they won't come through. company solution? overhire.
Plenty of bad if you read the archives, but the
fact that they offshore so much is enough to keep me away. 
If you read the posts in the archives you

will run as fast as you can.  They are not are reputable company and I'm not even sure they are a transcription company at all, but a front just to rob you blind.  We call them TransScam. 


There are multiple unresolved complaints with the BBB. 


Read the archives. Doesn't pay much, you
pay expenses and get reimbursed. 
Read through the archives, horrible company.
The dictators are some of the worst ESLs, sound quality is horrific, the reports are so bad I had to basically retype them, flaky QA, management problems, etc.  
Read the archives. Many posts, none good. nm
 
Have read archives, but can any current TRS employees ... SM
share how it is there now, specifically whether the required line counts are doable and if they generally have good accounts - also about the benefits.  Thanks!
I found Medgarde, but read in the archives...
that they don't pay for spaces and make you pay for their platform. Is this still the case?
Read in the archives that Mediscript (FL) is "bad news" Why?
.//
I read in archives that pay is 65 char wo spaces, is that true?

There was a lot of trouble with this company earlier this year - see archives -- Mediscript

How did you find out about them?


 


Worst company to work for. Read the archives and you'll
be hard pressed to find anything good about this company. 
Read the archives. Lots of stuff recently. Not good.
 
This is THE BEST post I have read here all year sm
BRAVO! I could not have said it better myself.

YES you REAP what you SOW!!!!! YOU ARE RIGHT ON THE MONEY.

I am saving this...
I can speak for AccuSTAT Wisconsin. It's not affiliated to any other AccuSTAT.
I've been with AccuSTAT Wisconsin now for 9 years and I wouldn't work anywhere else. The work is acute care (basic 4), mostly ops and ER work. The work is done thru C-phone or VXP software.


I read some posts a year or so back (sm)
that it was a husband/wife operation - that the wife was super nice and very easy to work for - no comment positive or negative on the husband that I can recall - that they usually always got paid on time but there was that little bit about being paid when client paid - which is a little scary - I'm of the firm belief that a company - large or small - should have enough cash flow to pay their people - that is running a little too close to the edge for me - but if it is a good company and great platform, good docs - I might try them someday.
Read closely and notice the year, hello!
The transcription business has taken a nose dive from what we used to make to now, look at the year I made this amount. Much happier now with VR because now I have made enough in the past to have a really good social security check coming in this year. I work part time, get retirement and SS and all those combined makes for an excellent income. Very happy now, thanks.
I've been there almost a year.
Anything special you want to know?
That's odd. I've been there a year and only
ran out of work once.
I've been there less than 1 year
and make 8.5 -- I started at 8 and then was raised up to 8.5 after I was done with training and probation. I am told I will be elligible for a raise to 9 after 1 year. The company is VERY nice. It is based on production, not hours. I average 16,000 lines every 2 weeks. I'm on ortho and don't have a set shift -- I have 3 doctors assigned to me and I just have to have my work done within 24 hours of downloading.
i've been with them about a year
and very very seldom have work flow problems. I think its the best place there is to work.
I've been with them for a year --
and I'm quite happy.  My pay is not the greatest, but I have a good account, they're fairly flexible and the benefits are pretty good.  I've never been this happy overall with a company and the account I'm working on.
I've been there not quite a year and don't know him, but
if he is still there he is not in QA.
