you can't blame them, unless of course you are under 18, are not of sound mind, or just like playing the victim. I agree, grow up!

I agree. Its a necessary evil. They exploit people who need insurance.
I work three jobs.. two in transcription and one doing insurance billing for a private physician. It is crazy how much the cost of medicine is and how bad insurance companies are gouging people.
AMEN! Very nice people and they sm
WILL work with you, but they do tell you anything to get you into something then you find out it is a bunch of bull.

Nice doesn't cut a paycheck!
Shame on them. They exploit, do not pay for spaces.

Amen Sister, Amen! Excellent post. (nm)

People at TT have been paid! People who haven't well, maybe you did not make count and your check
after insurance deduction. Maybe your bank is holding it. Maybe anything! But we GOT PAID. This is NO LIE. And I am sick of this board. Nothing but disgruntled exemployees arguing with employees who like their job. Ugggg. I am working. BTW: THERE IS WORK (clears throat) remember that? Work?
Keystrokes is wonderful!! They are the nicest people and care 150% about their people!!
Excellent company!!!!
I worked for SS and some people were very RUDE and I am talking about the editing people in some
instances.  It ALL depends on the person, as it does with any company.  They paid on time and the lady over me was very nice, but boy the person in QA was mean to EVERYONE!!  Never seen anything like it before.
Are people trying to scare people or just tell them what is happening. I am not scared just seeing
that things are changing very rapidly and not for the better for me. If I have no work and need multiple accounts everyone else is in the same boat now arent they that have my accounts. That is how people know what is going on.
Maybe due to the people that manage Amherst. I think MQ would be a lot better off finding new people
up there with all the problems you hear about that office. Seems like something is very very wrong there.
I doubt it. There are more happy people than unhappy people sm
at Medquist. I've checked out other companies but I liked MQ the best (I kept working at MQ while testing other companies).
SO right! People who get paid to bring people on-board -sm
to these companies (few, if any, are 100% honest, it seems), are going to be honest and tell you anything that isn't rosy and sugar-coated. Having a good prospective MT walk because the company isn't so great means less green dollars in their bank account every month. They're not going to tell us anything that DOESN'T make them more money.
AMEN!
:-)
AMEN!
You would think in order to succeed, they would want to treat their good MTs like gold, and help the newbies out. Instead there is nothing but backstabbing. Having said that, there ARE some good people still working there, why they have not been run off yet, I have no idea. But my hat goes off to them, the good guys fighting the good fight...you know who you are! As for SD, she was always extremely nice and encouraging to me. It was when she stepped down when all hell broke loose and the company went to the crappers.
AMEN!

The whole "lets blame the IC" is really getting boring. I too am an IC and work my scheduled hours. I always call before logging in after my scheduled hours to see if I am needed, and I am always told "yes". It is the end of the pay period and guess what employees......IM OUT OF WORK TOO.
AMEN!!!!
and Amen!

This person's obsession with recruiters and the fact that he/she seems to be perched just waiting for the opportunity to throw out that question is a little disturbing. Enough already! Maybe, just MAYBE the majority of these people really are MTs who are happy with the co. they work for. And if some of them are recruiters, big hairy deal! And no, I'm NOT one - geesh!
Amen!!!!!

Ha, we must work for the same company!.  I'm thoroughly disgusted.  Because of reckless overhiring we have to be a slave to the computer for 14 hours a day 7 days a week just to meet quota or face severe punishment.  The holiday excuse is old and a bunch of bull.  But what do they care, they're salaried. 
Amen!
Amen!
Amen!
We all know there are good companies, and there are bad companies. We each have to decide that on our own experiences. It is fine to share personal experiences but that should be done in a professional manner - not with the personal digs. I don't know the first thing about Keystrokes either, but in my personal opinion, some of these posts are not helping the reputation of the company. If it's good, you don't have to defend it. One or two people on this board are not going to ruin the company's reputation.
Amen.

Had all this stuff to fill in on an opening page - right? took minutes of hand entering stuff before you could start working on your lines.

Amen on that!
They know who they are and I have no respect. They are dumping us in the potty bigtime. What is the word I have for them? cheater, loser, no those words are too good. And even worse are their employers who let them get away with it, work the shit out of other people and then scream wheres my profit? Nannaannanay... waaawaa
amen to that

AMEN!
It is unfair that we have to sit back and take the abuse...and they just move on to the next MTSO with not a second thought! AMEN! AMEN!
AMEN
I agree 100% with you!!!! I love my job, but I am seriously considering changing careers so that I can make more money without killing myself trying to make ridiculous bonuses.

You know what else ticks me off is the CMT extra money they offer. It seems like years of experience is less important than the certificate. How many years of experience is equivalent to a CMT?

AMEN to that!!!
So true!! If you read this board long enough you can figure things out.
AMEN to that!
Not to mention their test which certifies MTs. I swear I don't know how some of these people can put CMT after their name. To me it means nothing. Show me what you know instead of a piece of paper.
Amen to that
!!!
Amen!
You hit the nail on the head. I have 4 accounts to work out and was out of work yesterday. I have to say I absolutely love the people that I work for, but I do have a mortgage. But the company overall is terrific.
Amen to that!

AMEN

Absolutely correct!


Amen!
You said it! You know this is supposed to be a board where we can find out the good and the bad about companies, the real and honest opinions, not just a gripe board. Life is too short and there are too many companies out there, so my question is to these people who are at DSG and are so unhappy...... Why don't you spend the same amount of time looking/applying for another job that you spend here complaining! Fact is that DSG is a decent company, not a good fit for everyone (but then again no company or job is a good fit for everyone)BUT definately worth trying, at least you know that you will get paid. So, if it is a good fit great! If it is not a good fit, at least you made some money and now you know. That being said if you are not happy there move on!!! We build our lives complaining instead of doing, WHY?!?!?
AMEN to the max !!!! - nm

Yeah, seriously. I may be a newbie but I don't think my skills are that bad until I hear some of these doctors mumble through an H&P with their mouth full of marbles!
Amen!
Well said. Our country is entering unchartered territory. The challenge for the future is how do we maintain enterprise and democracy when you have corporations leading the direction of the country. Look around, pay attention as the poster above says. Pharmaceuticals are the most powerful. They influence our government and in turn, influence our society, and where it's going. Many sanctions are given to corporations, why? Because our economy is not so good these days, and we would be in terrible trouble if corporations could not keep the economy going, even if that means the middle class is dying. All things have a way of correcting themselves, and perhaps through some painful changes we may see an adjustment with something that looks like socialism somewhere down the road. Just a thought.
Amen and Thank You
I agree - Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday, Jesus!! May the New Year bring blessings to all of us. OP sounds like a sensible person who likes her job - everyone else should be happy for her.
AMEN!!!!
I couldn't have said that any better myself. Bravo!
AMEN!!!
