Any suggestions for a good place to work?
Does anyone have any suggestions concerning a good place to work for a Transcriptionist with 13 years of experience? This is my 4th day out of work this week - my company is now outsourcing to India, and USA-based transcriptionists are apparently being forced out by attrition. Any suggestions appreciated - thanks in advance.
Are there any companies left that do not work on platforms?
I have five years' experience but have never worked on a platform before. I have worked straight out of my own version of Microsoft Word and am nervous about my productivity with learning a new platform. Can you still use Expanders with platforms? Any info would be helpful. Thanks.
Are there any companies left who don't send work offshore?

Any good suggestions? So many stay aways!
Wanting to know some good company suggestions. Went down the page here, and lots of stay aways. Still looking for a fair line count (see original message on main board about wanting to find a fair company) or at least a way to get paid halfway decent without getting burnt out. That is trying to find a company or hospital situation at home where you get the line count which is fair, no hidden surprises. Thanks in advance for some good replies. I have enough stay aways on my list and none so far on the good list. Have a nice day and thanks again.
Good companies to work for.
Can anyone list 3 or more companies that are really good to work for? I am looking for employe status. I just left a company where I really got burned and ended up getting laid off because of no work for WEEKS. I really want a reliable company and any helpful information would be great. I have 5 years experience. Any advice would be so helpful. Thank you for your time.
Good companies hiring for clinic work
Know any good companies hiring for clinic work? I'd rather get lower pay for clinic and have a higher line count than stress out over acute care at this point.
Workin, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that one of the suggestions will work for you too. nm

I left in May, tried out 3 new companies & went w/my 3rd one sm
I spent a lot of time testing and researching about a dozen other companies I thought I might be interested in. It was a lot of time spent, but well worth it in the long run as my current MTSO is the best. I'm making more $$ now than I have in a long, long time with MQ. I'm IC status, didn't have to test, and the pay is a lot higher than what I had w/MQ and I only transcribe for 4-6 doctors.
Don't be afraid to see what's out there. MQ has a pretty good transcription system w/DQS, but I was able to find a MTSO who just uses Word and FTP and that is just as easy and effortless as DQS. I'm also appreciated and thanked on a daily basis and I can honestly say I enjoy working again and I'm making decent paychecks once again, w/o all the stress I had when I was w/MQ wondering if I'd have work and what type of work and how many accounts I'd have to work through just to make 1200 lines a day.
Who knows, MQ just might be your fit. For me it came down to if I was able to make a decent lph in 6-8 hours of work during the hours I wanted to work and I wasn't able to w/MQ and all of their new changes.
Are there any companies left that let MTs type and not edit? sm
Please, there has to be companies out there who want straight transcriptionists and not going through SR first. If anyone knows a company that is loyal to their transcriptionists, possibly have benefits, and are honest that is looking for a well-educated, hard working transcriptionists, please tell me where. I have been in this business many, many years...but every company I contact, they are going to speech recognition. And the pay is much less. HELP!
Any companies left with straight typing...no VR?
Any recommendations for a good company who does not use VR?
Question: Are there any companies left out there that send give X-mas
presents? I sent my MTSO a christmas card last year and got a big fat nothing in return. Is it too much to expect a little something for the holidays, even if it's just a card?
Those that left on good terms. nm

Those that left on good terms..What?
Why would you mail them anything? What do you mean?
not that I can see. I am like you, any good jobs left?
Curious
You see - all the good people have left OSI
She was super. She was treated very very badly at OSI. We will all be in better shape very soon as long as we can get another job before they are all taken. I think alot of people are leaving Medquist and they are going to be grapping some of the available jobs too. The old saying- Time is of the essence.
Thank you for your support. I know who you are. :)
Adminstrative Assistants and VanBelkum. Good companies, good pay!

Along the same lines, has anyone ever left TH and gone back with good results?

Hmmm. Good point. I only have a few weeks left,

DocQScribe wasn't a good platform for me, so I left. nm

I'm agreeing here, too. Wasn't a good fit/experience for ME, so I left after 6 wks. nm

I left the field for good earlier this year
after 15 years. I'm now an ACSM certified personal trainer at Bally Total Fitness, and also have a private client. Thanks to everything I learned as a transcriptionist, I passed the very tough certification exam on the first try.
I'm still networked with my first MD client, and we refer people to each other.
My body also thanks me for not spending hours at the computer anymore. I enjoyed the work, but don't miss it at this point.
There are many ways to use what we know. If your instinct is telling you to do something else, I encourage anyone to at least explore your options.
Yes, if you left on good terms, you can be eligible for rehire. nm

Cbay doesn't sound good. Glad I left
the Q when I did. I really hashed over that decision, but I am so glad I did. There will be a lot of people looking for work very soon. I wouldn't wait around until all the good spots are filled.
I actually left about a year ago and work for another company that's running out of work. Have to

I left a month ago, and couldn't be happier! They are the pits! Good luck. nm

may be good now, wait until they Global your account, too. I left there long ago, happy I did. nm

The best co. ever! Good work, good people, good pay, good bennies.

I don't work for TT but when I left my former job I
was hired over the phone with the new company on my first phone interview with them. Companies do not always test if you have the experience and they can tell that you know your stuff when they talk to you.
I left for no work. There is work on some accounts, but NO
work on other accounts.
I left MQ and went to work for them. I am level 8 SM
and on an account with lots of ESLs and started out doing DS which for me, not very productive. I put in my 2 weeks notice, and told my team leader why.
I left last year because the work kept
running out. Sorry to hear that the situation hasn't improved--looks like I did the right thing. Oh well...
What work will be left? N-D getting new accounts?
x
Yes, I can't afford to have no work so I left TT
I dislike the turn of events as they were my favorite company. I have nothing bad to say about TT. I simply got another job.
Sure, but what kind of work is left . sm
for straight typing? VR rejects? 99% ESL and 100% crap? At this point in time, there doesn't seem to be any reason for the VR MTs to envy the straight typers.
She left OSi to work for MedWare as an editor. (nm)

If even that much work left, and hopefully they will be able to afford aspirin. (nm)
zzzzzzs
I left due to no work for 2 months and they were STILL hiring
when that was going on. I would stay clear for a while unless you can survive off of 200 lines per day and want to work 24/7 and fight over the lines as they come in.
I left there as they were always running out of work from overhiring.
I noticed that when I left DSG to work for another company...
my lines increased dramatically...don't know if it is because of the ESLs on the account or what, but lines were so hard to get.
Left 3 months ago for lack of work
and haven't looked back. It is just the nature of the beast than when a network of accounts change to VR and MTs are doing more lpd now, there will be less work to spread around. There were already problems with not having enough work, so I did not wait for the transition to VR I had already moved down over the previous year from full time to part time because of lack of work. Glad I made the move because I am also the sole breadwinner for my household and can't afford to go without work.
Any suggestions
I am looking to make a switch- looking for 20 hours a week. I presently work for two companies, one I like so far (30+ days) uses ExText and the other one re-records and I dislike it more with every passing day (7 months) and want to replace it. Would prefer IC, 20 hours splitting up my week. Any suggestions?
suggestions for you CW
If you don't like my posts, dont read THEM. K? I mean no one said you have to read them, right? If they bother you so much, may be you should just disregard them.
Thank you all for your suggestions!! I appreciate it! nm

Any suggestions? Need PT IC
Orthopedic clinic with flexible hours???
Thanks for all of the suggestions!
thanks for all the suggestions
The company pays better than most, so I have put up with it when I shouldn't have. I do appreciate all your comments. I will be addressing this with them soon. Guess I'd better have a backup just in case. Never thought of it as me paying them before now. Thanks for the obvious!
Any suggestions........
What does one due when they resign from a company, but still (after about 1 week), there is no acknowledgement from their supervisor. Do I:
A. Assume it was not opened?
B. They are ticked off at me?
C. Don't give a hoot.
D. Most likely acknowledged ..will be calling soon.
E. Just avoiding it...don't want to deal with it.
