The archives said that they ran out of work frequently
and that they outsource to India. Was hoping things had changed. Do they pay for spaces, headers/footers, bold, etc.?
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.
Go to archives, company pg 87. Pages work

Check the archives. Most work done in India, they
have office in India. I have never seen anything good about them.
Anybody work Transcript USA? I looked in the archives but SM
didnt find much of anything current. Thanks in advance.
Anyone work for Proveros? There is not much in the archives. Only seen one unhappy camper
Worst company to work for. Read the archives and you'll
be hard pressed to find anything good about this company.

I have a phone interview with them on Monday and I'm just really on the fence here! What I want is to be able to have plenty of work, be left alone to do so, and just go back to how it used to be when being a MT was enjoyable. I'm just so undecided right now!
Searching for...
I am looking for a company that provides a computer, has voice recognition, and doesn't require 1200 lines per day for new part time people.
Searching for
I guess I wasn't very clear. Some companies want you to type 1200 lines per day within 3 weeks, 6 weeks, whatever and give you ESL docs you can't understand, so how can you put it on paper? It would probably take me 3 months.
Searching and done with it
You made an honest mistake, you apologized graciously, and you do not deserve the bullying you have been getting. Consider that bullies think they have a lot of power because they are anonymous on the Internet. Don't pay attention to them. Hugs to you!
I did some searching
on Google, saw your post below mine this morning too, and looks like maybe you're right because I see a couple of hits from the past with the two with eTranz and then found some old posts from here about not paying by the one person. But it looks like Full Circle is just the other person? Anyone else know anything about this? Thanks!

You've got mail.

Seems to be good and bad in the archives. Rude & running out of work to very professional, great

Also frustrated in searching
Is there anyway you could archive posts sooner, like maybe only keep two pages of current post? Or set up a search for non-archived posts?
sorry....searching...not searing
:(
Try searching MT Stars itself
Instead of Google, try the search for this site. Type in the name of the company and it should bring up information about them. I hope this is what you mean.
Thanks, searching, I figured that must be why. nm

It was the way you advised about searching
and if you think you were *originally* 'polite', you might want to recheck that definition.
Thank you! I do have a lot of soul searching to do.
What is so frustrating is that I'm really a great Transcriptionist in all aspects other than the production and staying focused for 8 straight hours. If I can overcome those, everything would be perfect.
Thanks again for your kind words and great advice. I appreciate it!
I'm actively searching......
TT used to be one of the best companies to work for, not true any longer. They seem to be all about making money for themselves. No more yearly bonuses, no matching 401K, nothing for MT week but thanks from lower management. There are companies out there that pay 70% of your line rate for speech, that's reasonable. This whole thing is going to backfire on them in the end. I've had several interviews but haven't made a final decision yet. It's not that I want to find a company that doesn't do VR, in reality they all will eventually. I want to find a company that realizes their MTs put bread on the table for managment, sadly that is no longer TransTech.
I've been searching for a prn
position for months! I'll definitely need it now to make up for the lost money due to reduction in pay!
Try searching "CHRISTIAN" rather than DIT
I too got nothing when searching DIT, but when you search the word Christian, a lot of linkage to past DIT posts come up since they always tout themselves to be a Christian organization.
You'll find it very enlightening.
Not easy...been searching for months
I was a recruiter and the company decided to hire a recruiting company...now many of us can't even find positions as there are usually one or two per company and they never leave or some don't pay well. So not easy even with someone with experience.
No. I just happened to be searching & thought I'd

I can't find my answer by searching...
I'm looking for opinions on:
CTS (Central Transcription Services)
and
TRX (out of Oregon and NYC)
Thanks so much in advance! Feel free to email me privately.
It should, but you'll be searching a long
time to find it. Seems 8 cpl is the going rate and 9 if you're lucky.
Is it? Nuts. I have been searching all over for my contract, but I'm not sure
I ever got a signed copy back from D., though I specifically requested that she send a copy back to me with her signature on it as well.
Try searching Dictation Services Group
in addition to DSG.
Anyone know anything about Wordzxpressed? Perhaps I flunked archive searching, sm
but I cannot seem to find anything recent about them. I hear so many horror stories about so many companies, it is hard to know who are the good guys and who are the bad. 
Thanks.
A position like this is a RARE one, newbies. I've been searching 11 yrs for a job like this and

Any good info on MDI-FL. Do they have IC status? I've been searching for sm
the past 15 minutes and have found nothing!! I read somewhere someone said you have to have tough skin to work for MDI-FL. I wonder what this means! :)
Thanks to anyone with any info on this company. Trying to leave MQ and make some decisions here. Help out a fellow MT. Love ya. LOL
After much searching on this board, I am not finding any info on Focus for sm
rate in pay. Can anyone please spare a fellow MTs time and just let me know if their pay is decent?? I just got a 10% decrease in pay today with MQ and I am just so upset! I'm looking for a decent company, that's all. Thanks so much!
Keep searching. All the good stuff is kept in house now. If you snag Op reports out here, they're

Only those Good/Happy Friday emails to try to keep us from searching for jobs during the weekend
TT throws out a *line* on Friday emails, hoping that we will bite. TT mgmt does not know what to do now ! I truly believe that !
I'm not sure that they will make it through this, if Dictaphone has taken away some of the Dictaphone accounts works and dividing it out among other Dictaphone customers.
I don't see a pretty picture at Transtech anymore. Don't say that I am just a negative person; what is pretty about it?
When a new MTSO signs on with Dictaphone, they are going to give them work from somewhere, and I believe it is from TransTech.
I am so disheartened by all this with TT. 
Promises for new work coming onboard is exactly what one poster said -- more Dictaphone overflow accounts! Not enough work for ALL the MT's TransTech has hired within the past few months.
Here's the deal - if you find one that fits, even remotely. STAY!! stop searching for "perfect

go through Archives
Yes they have paid MTs with bounced checks with every worthless excuse under the sun on several occasions among a multitude of other unacceptable business practices. Please do a search in the archives.
Archives so old
Does anyone know why all the posts are so old whenever I want to research a company in the archives? Almost all of them are from 2004 and very few from 2005. If they were posted in 2005, then they are usually many months old. Also why aren't they posted in chronological order with newest ones first? Please help me understand this. Thanks.
There is a lot in the archives about them.

All of them are still there in the archives. I even went back to reference some myself before even posting my questions.

how exactly do i get to the archives? tks
Archives
How do I find out about a company from the archives?
archives???
Can someone tell me why I cannot access the archives any more? Why can I not research companies that are hiring through the archives? Is anyone else having this problem? Also is someone removing the responses to questions posed by people looking for information on certain companies? Just wondering if this is something I am doing wrong or if something new is going on or what. Thanks to anyone who can enlighten me.
MD-IT on archives?
I tried the archives and get nothing. I know there is another company with a similar name...?
Look in the archives. (nm)
NM.
Archives sm
Well I looked in archives and only saw one where the person was happy working for them. Somehow I don't think that's your point,so have you worked for them????
Archives are old
Maybe she wanted RECENT information. The stuff in the archives tends to be fairly old. I read it too when I was considering them last year.
I don't know where the info comes from that they only have overflow accounts. That is not the type of account that I am on with them. The only regular time there is no work is Sunday. The only other time there has been no work in the middle of the week was around the holidays when the clinic was closed at Christmas and New Years and most clinics had slow work then.
Bottom line, to the OP, you have to make your own decision. If you get an offer and have a good feel about it, go for it. If you don't have a good feel about it, then you need to listen to your instinct. Good luck with whatever you decide.
Archives help!
Is there something I am doing wrong? Whenever I do a company search, the only info I get is extremely old, like 5, 6, 7 years. How do I get more up-to-date info?
JLG not in archives
Is that a good thing or not. I thought she sounded good and I'll be making just as much per line as I did at MQ. The only difference is instead of Monday thru Friday days, I'll be working Sunday thru Thursday days. Pay dates are the same.
If it's the one in Wisconsin, all bad - see archives nm
