ditto-- well said and I agree with everything you said.
I think the reason you don't see much on this board about Transtech is because their employees are happy. I know I am.
Ditto that ditto..ESLs drove me out too...nm
nm
Ditto, ditto, ditto. My experience exactly.
I have never typed so fast and made so little in my life except for at Amphion. Good for supplemental income but not if you really need some money.
I replied, too
What difference would it make if it was an MTSO checking things out?  I mean, if they have jobs, what the hey?  Or am I missing something here? 
Yep, I got it and replied.
Thanks.
I was just looking at their website when you replied to this, trying to (sm)
decide if I should call them about an ad they had online!   Do they have employee status or is it all IC?  Were they flexible with schedules?  If you don't want to answer on here, feel free to e-mail me.  I have about 6 companies I'm juggling and don't know which to choose.  Thanks! 
I replied to you via email nm

Loved The Way You Replied!
I know this is days after your discussion but just saw your post. Laughed out loud at the way you replied to the previous comment about better rate. Guess it was just one of those moments that I needed a good laugh.
I know they never replied to me when I E-mailed them..nm

TY, replied back. nm

Thanks to all who replied to my post. nm

I read it below and replied...
The link worked fine for me.
Got it and replied back. Thanks! nm

I replied to you once, sweetheart. You've got a
really bad attitude. My response wasn't a big huge long drawn out one-sided conversation either. It was plain and simple. If you can't find the email that they send to everyone, CALL THEM or email them. Who is supposed to help you here? Not that I CARE anyway. Just trying to help the helpless become more proactive in finding their own answers. How much time did you waste on the board being snotty and calling everyone else snotty when a simple little five minute phone call would have fixed all of your complaints? Try to help someone and get your nose bit off.
Did you read the post you replied to at all?
Because they can even manipulate their count program not to count certain letters, data tags, etc. Of course it will not jive with a word count in Word that will count it all and fairly. Make sense?
I posted the one you replied to, and I didn't
say anything about Obama...?
A post was made asking for opinions. I replied. sm

Part of the reason I replied was because I did go to management, several times in fact, and either there were no replies whatsoever or the replies were in disagreement with others in management, leaving me wondering which one was correct, or they were replies to simply pacify with no intention of correcting.  I'm not trying to flame the company. If my experience seems like a flame, it is because there is a problem and exposing it is like exposing dirty laundry, I guess.  It isn't meant to dissuade anyone or persuade any else for that matter.  It is simply MY experience.  Like I said before, I am not a disgruntled employee.  I am merely experiencing some things in the company that differ from what others are going through and I am simply expressing my experiences on this forum because of what I stated before about intimidation coming from management on the internal forum. 


You are absolutely right that there are many, many employees of Transcend that are extremely happy.  I'm not among the ones who have flamed anyone for posting postive experiences. I have/had been one of those happy employees for years.  There are also many that have been so fed up they have quit. There are also current employees who are in my situation as well, but are afraid to talk about it.  At this point in time, I fall in the middle grouping.  I'm not saying it's a bad company to work for.  Again, I am merely expressing my experience, and has been said many, many times before, I'm quite confident that people on this board have the ability to know what is best for them in a company and aren't going to let the posting of a few happy cheerleaders or a few disgruntled ex-employees be the basis for the decision what company to choose or not to choose. 


All I am saying is that if you are the poster who feels that he/she can work whenever simply because it is inconvenient to work the shift you had committed to, please don't assume that I hadn't talked to management about MY issues and try to point the finger and make accusations about MY motives.  This board is about the pros and the cons.  Unfortunately for me, my circumstance falls in the latter grouping and I shouldn't be lumped into a group of people flaming or bashing and told it is unfair for me to speak about my experience when I have tried all other internal avenues to no avail.  If my experience seems like flaming the company, there would be no flame if there was no ember to fan, so I should have that accusation pointed at me simply because I discuss it?? That is what's not fair, and since I did say I didn't want to argue, I'm not going to keep the discussion going with banter that gets heated or flamed to the point the whole string gets deleted.  Thanks for your input and have a nice day.


 


Applied twice recently to Med-Tech and they never replied. They pay 6-9 cpl and want 150 lph. nm
m
I see. You replied to a post asking about their pay scale. Nevermind. nm
nm
I replied and was hired for one of those positions. It is internet. Not sure about all sm
but at least the one I am on is ExText.

Same thing here, got the email and replied, and now NO contact from them
x
I appreciate the input, but they haven't replied to my resume...sm
even though I have 9 years of MT experience, 4 of that with hem/onc.  I just don't get why they can't send even a blanket email out...that's better than being totally ignored.
Med-Tech Resource from one of the banners here is in Marietta, 770. They never replied to me, but

ditto
Excuse me for speaking my opinion. If those in the management team weren't so worried about shooting off RUDE emails maybe they could reply to a question I had last week that is now 120 hours old and still have no answer to my question. People just blow me away especially at SS.
Ditto.

Don't stretch what I said.  I said it was rude to say get a life to someone who is trying as hard as they can already. That's what my post was about, so don't twist my words either.  There is a shortage of work and you know it. You said it's common this time of year and I'm not arguing that.  I'm agreeing with you.  About time you recognized that there is a work shortage and stopped candy coating it.  Because this shortage has been going on for a while now, not just the summer months.  My post wasn't so much about the shortage as it was about the rude comment.  It WAS rude to those people who are already giving up a lot of their life to Transcend.  


ditto for me
Same here. (actually twice)
Ditto

Ditto everything you are saying. MQ is definitely up to something and I think a lot of MTs are and
will continue to walk as they continue to come up with new ways it seems to get rid of MTs and QA people. I still think they are getting ready for a merger or sell out.
ditto
leave email address
Ditto
I found nothing to like about it either. I'm actually taking a pay cut, to have more restrictions and expectations put on me, and benefits I don't need or want.

The $50 I'm losing every month on my internet pay was enough to make me want to quit, the rest was just icing on the cake.




Ditto - NM

Ditto - sm
I agree - and when you have no idea what to get anyone, let alone the money to buy it, plus all the other preparations that go with the season, it's just not worth it. The real reason for the season is totally disregarded. I truly hate this time of year.
Ditto...

Didn't pass the test either - though I thought I did pretty well.  Said I could retest in six months or if I was willing to purchase the required textbooks I could retest immediately.  I emailed them back asking what the required textbooks were, but never got an answer.  Oh, well!!


 


 


Ditto.
I'm always amazed at this. Yes, they most certainly do beg for the jobs and then when they get it...cry, cry, cry.

If you want work that is somewhat easy, go do clinic work. There is no such thing as easy acute care work. There are lots of dictators on most acute care accounts. Hospitals are pretty big...ya know? Big hospital=lots of docs.

You may want to go get a job in a different field. Your poor skills as an MT has nothing to do with Spheris. You'll always have poor skills if you don't try.
ditto the above about ETP
Totally disorganized, unprofessional, plays favorites, lies about work amount, low work most of the time and just generally treats their employees like cattle, worked there 4 years much to my dismay!!
Ditto that.

Ditto what DRC-MT just said! :-) nm
nm
ditto
double ditto
Ditto
I couldn't have said it better myself.  Having done the rounds with other nationals and working in house, I am thrilled to be with this company after my 25+ as an MT professional. 
Ditto that.....nm

Ditto on SS.
 
Ditto
I have been an intern with Deb for a month now and she more than goes out of her way for those of us determied to be an MT. She is always nice and helpful and I feel very lucky to be learning from her.
Ditto!!
What an organized piece of sorry xcuse of a company!! I don't like having to ask and ask and ask and ask about my check. And, you see this woman on IM but yet she never answers you unless you send a threatening IM about reporting her to the company she subcontracts for. Gone from there for good!
Ditto!
Beautifully said!
Ditto and then some
None of SoftScript's managers know proper grammar or spelling, just pathetic, but must be an embarrassment when they contact their clients. With managers that dense you can do much better.

OSI managers know proper sentence construction with the exception of QA manager who is in a class by herself but they send work offshore so you don't need that.

Oracle and TTS are awful overall and MDI in FL outsources as well.

Hope this helps. Slim pickins.
ditto that

Ditto.
They also give an anniversary bonus of $100 for each year you've worked for them. I'm a year away from my 5th anniversary when I will bump up to 3 weeks vacation. Great place.
ditto for me

Ditto
I also would like to thank DRC/Acusis for the very nice MT week gift.  I am so proud for work for such a wonderful company.
Ditto for me...
Trained 1 day, worked 1 day, then no work...... quit.
