AccuStat...any new info? I've read the archives that are a year old...

Have read archives, but can any current TRS employees ... SM
share how it is there now, specifically whether the required line counts are doable and if they generally have good accounts - also about the benefits.  Thanks!
Current info about Axolotl in archives, never
heard of the other company.  Axolotl is not currently hiring, has no work on multiple accounts, though they do pay for downtime.  Fixing to start transition to natural speech, most would call it VR.  Pay is better than most currently, good benefits, great company.  Work has been low for 3-4 months, but is worse lately.  They provide all software/hardware, good tech support 24/7. 
Precyse Solutions -- I've read the archives and I'm looking for updated ...
responses. Is there anybody here that's actually happy working for Precyse? Are most folks making decent money there?

Thanks.
Read the archives, lots of info there.
 
Opinions on Focus. Please. I read all archives. Please most recent info. Thanks. NM

Any recent info on Landmark? I've already checked the archives. Thanks!

Frequent turnover, offshore big time. Read the archives, lots of info on them. nm
 
comany info request

Hello all ~


Does anyone know anything about the following companies and could share experiences, etc?  They are Freedom Type and Private Secretary.  Also, does anyone know of any companies who handle just clinic or VA accounts?


Thanks so much!


MT Recrutiers- ever hear of this transcription comany? Any info good or bad, new company? nm
nm
There is lots of current information in the archives.

They offshore, but they don't want you to know that.


 


Read the archives. Hardly a day goes by that

someone asks info on a company that was just discussed the day before.  There are other forums besides this one too where you can get info on companies.  Post your resume on the various job boards.  There are companies that do not post ads but hire from the resumes.   My current position I was hired from my resume and I have been offered a couple of other positions from companies who contacted me from my resume who did not post ads. 


I work for a good company and honestly they are not hiring.  Other MTs do seem to get upset when people will not tell them what company they work for.  I don't believe they are afraid of losing their job to someone else (at least for the most part I don't), but they don't want the company to overhire.  There are many posts on the boards about people not having work for days on end because companies are overhiring. 


All you have to do is read the archives.
Overall it seems that most MTs are very happy.   BTW I am not a TT MT. 
Read through the archives. There have

been posts about them just above every well.  They are an Indian run company. 


Read the archives. I did QA and did not like it.

Read the archives and then RUN.

Why not read the archives?

If you read through the archives you'll see not
much good about this company, especially from people who refused to listen to the issues that others had and went to work for them anyway.  They offshore big time, constant turnover.   I wouldn't consider it.        
They were actually one of the companies I was looking at until I read the archives..it seems
they haven't changed at all with the negative responses this time around.  Thanks for the warnings! 
If you read the archives you should find what you are looking for, although

you won't find much good about them.  


If you read the archives you won't find much

good about them.  They switch you from account to account. They have had management problems for many years.  Their line counting is difficult to figure out and they dock you for lots of things.  They also offshore and are currently training women in Trinidad and somewhere else so you know what that means.   Some of their accounts are teaching hospital and I worked on one of them and the dictation quality was horrendous.  If you're a newbie I doubt they'd put you on it though. 


There are worse companies out there, but I still wouldn't recommend TRS. 


 


Read the archives. Someone else just asked about
them this week.   They are not a good company. 
Read the archives. Lots there, most of it not
good.   Someone else asked about them this week so scroll through the board. 
Read the archives. Someone asks about them
almost daily. 
You must do a search and read OSI archives

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.
Plenty of bad if you read the archives, but the
fact that they offshore so much is enough to keep me away. 
If you read the posts in the archives you

will run as fast as you can.  They are not are reputable company and I'm not even sure they are a transcription company at all, but a front just to rob you blind.  We call them TransScam. 


There are multiple unresolved complaints with the BBB. 


Read the archives. Doesn't pay much, you
pay expenses and get reimbursed. 
Read through the archives, horrible company.
The dictators are some of the worst ESLs, sound quality is horrific, the reports are so bad I had to basically retype them, flaky QA, management problems, etc.  
Read the archives. Many posts, none good. nm
 
I found Medgarde, but read in the archives...
that they don't pay for spaces and make you pay for their platform. Is this still the case?
Current info on Diskriter?? Past info was very mixed. Either MTs hated it or liked it, does anyone

love working there and why? Do you easily meet your incentive pay or as past people have said, the ESL are so bad that you never meet the line count. I need current and new information. Isnt there a company out there that has a handful of happy employees or does all of them have both the haters and lovers. It is so hard to sort out fact from fiction sometimes and all of us have different expectations. It kind of goes along with the one man's junk is another man's treasures theory, I suppose.


Current Keystroke MT's - please read!
Why or why do they never get back to you? If I did lousy on their test (which I very much doubt) at least write and tell me! I've got 25 years experience. I am currently doing radiology (and have been for the last ten years) and heard that they were a great company. But they never, ever get back to you when you test, e-mail, etc. Is something going on there? Are they still good to work for? I don't want insurance even! Just looking for a decent employer, good line rate and pleasant co-workers. On my part I am a hard and dedicated employee looking for a great company to affiliate with. Anyone have any info???
Read in the archives that Mediscript (FL) is "bad news" Why?
.//
I read in archives that pay is 65 char wo spaces, is that true?
dd
Read the archives or open your original post and
click on related messages.  
Worst company to work for. Read the archives and you'll
be hard pressed to find anything good about this company. 
Read the archives. Lots of stuff recently. Not good.
 
I've said on here several times to always keep current job
nm
Just go to MQ board and read, form your opinion from current employees (nm)

Any current feedback on TransHealth? They've been
nm
Which comany?
x
Whoa..been years since they've been mentioned! Is their website current?
s
Don't you just cringe when the comany .... sm
doesn't spell their name correctly? I can't help but notice these things. I've been searching a lot of MT websites, and you wouldn't (or probably will) believe the typos in their websites.

Anyway.....
I've read them, thank you
It seems to me debatable whether the name I used qualifies for exclusion by that policy, although that issue I will defer, obviously, to the site administrator.

[Third -- No company-specific information, i.e., account names, privileged information, posting of internal memorandums/communication, etc. Company names themselves are, indeed, permitted. Do not name specific accounts or copy/paste the memo that made you upset at work.]

I don't believe the name mentioned qualifies as either an account name, privileged information, and internal communication, but again, that isn't my call to make.
There is a bit info on them in the archives.

There is a ton of info in the archives
use the 'google' search box...not the other one. Here is the link (copy and paste into your address bar):

There's info in the archives
When I was hired, they said they paid for spaces. First check comes and was about $300 short. When I called them, they said they never said they paid for spaces. That was a lie.

When the payroll person went on vacation for 2 weeks, we had to wait until she came back to get paid.

I've also read on the boards from other MTs that the husband can be very unprofessional when faced with having to deal with any issues their MTs may have with their company, going as far as calling names and throwing insults.

Just giving you info. It's up to you, of course, whether you want to risk trying them out or not.
Yes, I've read several posts about SS
and will beware. Thanks. I've learned a lot just by reading all the posts here.
I've read the old posts
before I accepted a position with them and I am glad I ignored them. I find my line rate to be very fair compared to what I have seen advertised for other companies, no it isn't the 14 cpl that I used to get on my own but who would expect that now anyway :). I have never had any problems with them. Pay has always been on time, the QA and management are always quick to answer any questions I have and they leave you alone during the day. IM is only used for quick problems and I can count on 1 hand how many times they have IM'd me, other than my first 2 days to see how I was doing and if I needed anything. To each their own though, everyone will not be pleased with the same companies.
