small to medium company that works in Word or Word-based program - email me. nm

TransTech and Medware, are these companies considered large, medium-sized or small companies? (sm)
TIA
We don't have to put up with this anymore from MT companies
No, you are not the only one. We don't have to take this anymore from MT companies who will not pay their MTs. I was rightly shocked about this company though. I had actually thought better of them. Well, we will see what happens soon.
These companies are not paying anymore than that.
So, unless she gets her own accounts and cuts out the middle man she's not going to find a company to pay more than 9.5 cpl. 
do any companies hire statutory anymore? - nm
nm
Because these companies no longer care about their employees anymore. nm

Small companies
Please list the names of some small companies. I need to get out of a big national but don't know where to turn. Thanx.
Small companies not for me

I have worked for both and I think that small companies are very, very particular. Not that that is a bad thing, but  ZERO room for error (everyone knows perfection is impossible 100% of the time).  So if you can QA at 100% every single time with a national, a small company would be perfect for you.  In all of my experience my lowest QA score was a 99.2 with nationals.  Small company just made me feel extremely inadequate.  That is one thing about communication with a small company, you can start feeling attacked for very (and I mean very) minor things. 


 


HTH.


small companies
Anyone give out some names of small good companies?
small companies
Sorry about being so vague. I'm looking for smaller national companies - probably 100-200 MTs (?)
Best of the big and small companies?

Are there companies out there that people really enjoy working for any more?


Look at small companies
When I changed companies last summer, I applied only to companies that had no VR, as that was why I was leaving my current company. I found quite a few by researching this board, and of course they tended to be smaller companies. They are out there. I would just review the info on this board and make a list.
The big companies and the small MTSOs are
what I avoid. Give me a medium sized company any day. The big companies treat you like a number. It's nothing but corporate B.S. The little MTSOs are always stressing out and you're the only person they have to work for them. Both want you available 24/7 and to sit there doing nothing if there's no work or the system is down.
Small national companies
I'm trying to find a new company and it is way more involved than I thought.  Earlier I asked about larger companies.  What are some of the smaller companies that people work for, say not more than 200 MTs??  Thanks for your replies!!
In general, small companies
I just left one of the big companies because I won't do ASR because of the decreased pay. Smaller companies are usually straight transcription only, and I am now with one of those. There are quite a few out there.
Many LD companies aren't allowing MTs anymore. I doubt you'll have it for much longer.

or the small ones do not draw attention. It seems to be the bigger companies. sm
They are the ones mentioned the most, at least the ones that are growing.
Any small companies in Michigan that are nice to work for. nm
:
Ever notice how small & medium-sized MT companies - sm

are going the way of the dodo (and family farms), only to be replaced by huge, corporate McTranscription companies?  The Wal-Martization of medical transcription is a step backwards for discreet, high-quality medical records.

Anyone know of any small companies in Michigan or hospitals that hire MTs that you may be familiar
with the type of work.
Bring up again - companies that allow small pool of doctors versus

companies change all the time - her info is old, she said. (sm/small message)
A turnover in managers,QA, leads, even recruiters can make an impact and happens all the time, so you never know; old info - grain of salt. newer info more reliable and needs to be found while considering.


The companies that pay by the word don't even pay 1 cent

Any companies using Word or Wordperfect
tired of the web based programs and lost reports.  Are there any companies still using Word where you can just type into the Word program already on your computer?  Those were the good old days.:)  TIA
Companies that use word and FTP transfers
Does anyone know which companies are still using Word and transfering documents and voice via FTP?  Thanks in advance.
any companies with total MS WORD platforms

Are there ANY decent companies to work for who have totally MS WORD based platform for the work... i.e. you can use the autocorrect and/or some other word Expander than shorthand?


I have HAD it with these nasty platforms that are from the dark ages... worse than WP5.1.  meditech, chartscript, docuscribe stuff, bayscribe ......


Any companies offering just plain Word and upload to FTP?
nm
The platform is Word. Their program works with Word but does not change how Word works. nm
The benefits just changed the first part of this month. I don't have them but I remember them being reasonabl for a single person. Family and spouse was not reasonable in any way (in my opinion).
ExText is integrated with Word. Auto correct is a part of Word.
ExText is a Word based platform. When the page opens for you to type the document it will be just like you are typing in MS Word.
anyone work for Oracle - do they use Word or a Word-based program - e-mail me nm
nm
Just wanna work in Word - need company that works in WORD! nm
nm
Their program works with Word and does not change how Word functions. sm
You use your own expander. Overall I feel it is user friendly and I like it.
Does the Emdat platform use Word or is it Word-based? nm
nm
Word for Word Medical Transcription
Pros and cons please.
In his ad, he's asking for Word Perfect, not Word, if that matters. nm
s
The platform is not Word, but it is Word-based. I
had little Word experience and the recruiter told me to try to find a book to learn the basics of Word as their program is Word-based. 
Now I wish they would just call me back......no word no word and
What is up with these MT companies that advertise. They don't even answer. I have a great resume, tons of experience. I'm confused.
word for word company
does anyone know about word for word transcription company?  how are they to work for, platform?  thanks in advance!
I was told I could use word pad since I don't have word

I have 1 computer to speak of that I did not buy personally.  the company has their own platform and their own computer to be rented.  I would not be typing in word.  I have never had a problem testing this way before.  I am not saying certified is better.  I was explaining my circumstance.  I have my own personal computer ordered for my use and I wanted to test fast without waiting. geez.


Not too much anymore
Generally they don't want you working for another company in the same geographical area, but don't say too much about having other jobs. They know it's hard to make a decent living with one. I work for one national as an MT and for a smaller company as an Editor and either cares, they just care if you slack on one to work for the other.
That was last mo. Before that I used to do okay, but that isn't possible at MQ anymore. nm

nm


Yup, most definitely. Can hardly get 200 lph anymore.

Rae are you out there anymore?
x
Do you have to use their CPU or don't they do this anymore? Thx. nm
s
I don't think she is there anymore.
nm.
RUN....they don't do DD anymore
x
They don't anymore.
x
Not there anymore but the same
experience because if you ask a question you get many different answers and you never know what one is right.  I hated the platform and QA was the rudest QA I've ever encountered in my 7 years of doing transcription.
Not anymore. Martha is gone. NM
xxxx
Don't work there anymore,
so I can't check. Just wondering if it someone who deserved it or someone who was backstabbed.
I don't work for them anymore because (sm)
my phone started ringing off the hook for new local accounts, so I had to leave them, but if that hadn't happened, I would have stayed.  Very nice, very easy to deal with, always pay on time every week, great accounts.
