I'm guessing the reason these companies won't put their names is afraid they will get bashed.

I'm not sure why else they wouldn't be proud enough to put their company name. Pretty sad..

    That post bashed 7 companies, and
    went on to say the good companies never get mentioned. Well whose fault is that? I'm working for one of the 7 due to word of mouth. If you had posted about a better company, maybe I'd have applied there. But do you actually know what these better companies are? Instead of bashing companies, you should be praising the good ones. Now that would be helpful!

    Otherwise it sounds like you're just telling fairy tales.
    Is there some reason we can't come right out and name names?
    Do we have to use cryptic abbreviations for these non-paying or slow-paying companies?
    Can't you give her any names for companies? sm
    You have been around and tried many - you should have some names to give yourself.

    you can give the names of the 2 companies here.
    nm
    Can you give me the names of the companies here that were not honest?
    nm
    I agree.. It seems to me that some companies may "make up" names because they know they have t
    one to post here. Can't anyone get more creative than putting Nintendon's XBox and Game Cube together LOL.. I believe the rapper is Ice T but I'm not for sure. I'd have to ask my teenagers.
    That may be but if companies can't post ads without company names,
    nm
    what i'm looking for are names of companies that don't enforce schedules

    I'm not asking whether they exist or not, just if anybody knows of any and what their names are.  At one time I did work with somebody who said that they had worked for a company and when they didn't feel like working, they just didn't, and the company didn't care either. 


    The companies are driving me crazy with their similar names!

    What is the difference between Transtech solutions, Trans solutions and TTS?  Pl and thx for info.  One is out of New Hampshire, TTS I think but I cannot find it when I google.    


    I think the point was to POST names of good companies for all MTs to see,
    x
    Could you please provide names of companies where you are able to make required line counts
    and then some? I am struggling to find a platform or company which counts lines where a person can make more than 10K or 11K lines in a 2 week payperiod. This is silly.  This MT used to make 10K lines every week. Any and every suggestion would be appreciated.  BTW: Also please if you can let us know here where you cannot meet line count.  You can use initals so you don't get in trouble. Thanks in advance.
    I mean you have NO reason to complain about MW when there are companies like MQ-nm
    nm
    I think that attitudes like yours are the reason companies are looking elsewhere. sm
    You work from home to be with your family and not be treated like you are in an office? Give me a break. Act like an employee who deserves to get perks and maybe you'll be treated better. Follow your shifts (not signing in 2 hours late and ending early) and you won't get a mean email. You sound like a high school student with their first job. Where is your work ethic? I do not agree with te work going to other companies, but they seem to want to work while a lot of U.S. MT's do a lot of whining and complaining. No wonder they want to replace us. Less headaches and hassles for them. They want to make money.

    We've chased our jobs away. Not all of us, but those of us with attitudes like the above poster.

    Am I angry? You bet. Do your job and they will have reason to look elsewhere. The rest of us who work our shifts when we are supposed to shouldn't have to suffer because of attitudes of others, but those attitudes seem to be the majority.
    It's quality is NOT the reason those companies...sm
    chose to use MTs from your country - IT'S BECAUSE THEY ARE CHEAP AND SO ARE YOU!
    Companies only slammed when there's a reason.
    Check back to the archives a couple years ago, when it was DRC, and you'll find little written about them. That's usually the case on these forums. If the company treats its employees well and pays well, people are too busy working and being happy with their job to be posting here. Also, the former version of Acusis, DRC, was a smaller company with real people at the helm, not avian creatures and robots, like now.

    No doubt there are probably people who've never known anything else, who would be content with that situation, but I daresay most of us aren't.
    This attitude is the reason that many companies give nothing at all. sm
    I worked for a company that gave a small bonus about 5 years ago. So many MTs complained about the size that the owner decided to never do anything again. I know of a few other owners that feel the same way.

    I only have 10 employees, but I cannot afford a large bonus, so I am not giving anything at all. Believe it or not, most MTSOs do not make millions, live in mansions and eat bon-bons while their employees do all the work. There are times that my employees make more than I do. Not whining. Just stating facts.
    I agree. There is a reason why companies ask this question - SM
    Most good companies will ask you this question so that they can place you an account that is a good match for you and one that you will enjoy. Why does this irritate you??? You should be happy that they want to make sure to match you up with a good account. Would you rather they not ask and place you on an account that you hate? I would get over it.
    Don't let it get to you. Every day it is a new company that is being bashed. sm
    Those of us who are happy at Keystrokes know we have a good thing going. Those who either didn't cut it, were never hired or continue to job hop are never going to be happy anywhere or if they are, it is for a short time and they come on here and bash the company they went to.

    One of the posters on here is someone that I know well and she used to post positive things about how she left MQ for KS, left KS to go back to MQ, left MQ again to go to KS and now complains that they did not give her a good account. Would you? Personally, I would make someone who leaves and comes back prove themself. I just listen to her vent when we talk and move on, knowing that the next time we talk, it will be to vent about the new company she went to. And so it continues ...
    Please tell me where I have constantly bashed
    Axolotl.  Do you have me confused with someone else?
    I will probably be bashed by the naysayers,

    but I'll answer anyway.  I work Sun-Thu on 1 account at MDI.  I am committed to 800 lpd but my account is always needing extra help.  This Saturday alone, my day off mind you, I got in an extra 800 lines.  Now before I am accused of stealing other people's lines, we were asked to work extra on the account to keep it in turnaround time.  My hours vary from day to day - but since I'm only committed to 800 lpd, I can usually get them in in under 4 hours.  I generally work an hour in the morning (9-10), 2 hours in the afternoon (1-3) and 1 hour in the evening usually after 9 or 10.  No weird graveyard hours or anything.


    I guess your experience at MDI would really depend on the account you get.  I guess I must be one of the lucky ones because my experience with MDI has been great thus far.  I hope it continues.  For those who are hitting a rough spot, I hope it smooths out. 


    I really don't have anything negative to say about MDI.  For that, I'll be bashed on this board, but that's okay because I've got tough skin. 


     


    I am still really amazed about that MT who bashed the co this week for being fired because of her
    poor quality! You rarely see an MTSO fire an MT because of poor quality (boy would I love to see it having seen some of the poor quality that is sent to the facilities) because there are some who are just given so many chances that they do not deserve. They need to be weeded out and continue to be weeded out and for one to publicly come on here and bash an MTSO for doing what they had to do really has stuck in my mind.

    I still think MTSOs really need to be a cut above the MTs when it comes to going off but yes I do understand that sometimes they just have to say something.
    I agree! Too busy to be on here and too disgunted with being bashed to want to open myself up sm
    to that anymore. Happy at Keystrokes, that's all I need to say.
    They won't. It is common for a company to be bashed into the ground once it seems people are hap
    I knew it was going to happen once I saw the positive posts about Keystrokes. Some people obviously get sick thrills from stirring the pot.

    I hope they're happy now. I am sure Keystrokes will miss out on some great MTs because they won't apply due to the posts that have been put the last few days.

    Can't anyone accept that there really is a good company out there?


    Email me for details. Don't feel like getting bashed on here today!
    NM
    but a great post - my company gets bashed all the time too.
    nm
    Nope. We just get sick and tired of our company getting bashed
    at every turn. We love this place and have run out of patience with posters like this who clearly have no idea what they are talking about.

    Have you never lost your patience?
    I am guessing NJ.

    I'm guessing that
    with all the qualified people who frequent this site, you could start a business and grow into a decent sized companies (finding employees here!).

    It would be a lot of work but might be well worth it!
    Guessing

    I think it depends on your Team Leader and the account, but I know of people that do work 4-hour shifts on 2nd or 3rd shift.  I don't personally know of anyone at Focus who works a dayshift, though there could be some.


     


    Guessing.
    I am left to guessing, as there are no responses to my emails.  I don't trust myself to phone them, as I would likely not be able to disguise my extreme anger.   I had good evaluations from the Indian gentleman who used to be our account manager/Team Leader, so it isn't that I'm bad.  However, I have decided to interpret the situation as a blessing, a motivator to get me to finally find a better position, and move on to a better MT life. 
    How about Florida - am guessing
    we are part of the Tri-state
    By "account" I'm guessing you only have one?
    Why haven't you asked for a secondary or even a third? That would surely get you better results than simply posting your lack of work here.

    I'm guessing you are talking about Webmedx .
    they do not type in radnet, they have their own software. Radnet is used for macros, search patient's, etc.
    Your dictators are clear, and there's *no guessing at all*??

    So if you get one that isn't so clear, does that mean you *guess*?? 


    I'm guessing English is your second language? I would say this is a
    disservice to the MT as well as the companies you are going to service. Nothing worse than someone trying to sail the ship who hasn't ever been near the water.
    Just guessing but it might be the woman who owns KS??

    I am guessing that the OP meant the queue
    shut off means she can see there are jobs there, but when she clicks to get them, she gets nothing. Either that or suddenly the jobs go from a large amount to 0 all the way down. I have experienced both. Don't know if it is queue shut off or work manipulation by sups.
    Saw that too...WOW. I am guessing it is subcontracted work
    if all she can offer is 6 cpl.
    Hey gourdpainter. Do you even work at TT? I am guessing no.
    Why then are you constantly bashing them?
    Approximately how big is Transcend now? I am guessing (sm)
    MQ, Spheris and now Transcend, but as I said this is only a guess.  Anyone else?

    Why? What are they afraid of?

     


     


     


    If you or any other MT is afraid to
    ...mention it, then you have a problem.  I've been down this road before.  Most of the time the supe doesn't know and/or care what's going on.  I would bring it to her attention.  If things don't change.....look elsewhere.  There's too many companies out there to put up with continuous crap like that.  This cherry picking and playing favorites is for the birds.  Good Luck!
    Yep, I was afraid of that. :( nm
