Is the pay comparable?

Posted By: darwin on 2006-12-05
In Reply to: They are MT - longtime MT

I've done 3 jobs so far, and I'm making about 1/3 to 1/2 per hour what I normally would (counting being an IC and losing the employer paid portion) I am hoping this is just a learning curve problem (trying to keep track of 15 different speakers, etc.) because the work is very interesting.Did you guys find you were able to speed up, or did you finally throw up your hands?

And yes they do medical conferences, they also do legal and corporate transcription.

Comparable...
Focus pays more for production, retroactive to entire pay period when lines per pay period goals are met. Also there is a shift differential for lines edited/transcribed after 9 p.m.
Pay was definitely comparable.
I relocated and needed time to build my home. Nothing made me run away from this company. I would recommend them.
Their pay and benefits seem very comparable..sm

to other companies from what I have found out.  Not sure of anything else. I have not started with them yet.  They offer employee status or IC status.  I would love to find out more information too.  Have you taken the job or just inquiring?


My rates are comparable to before and didn't go up.
If you look at the website, the vision says $0.00.  The only way you have to pay for your vision is if you don't take the medical.
I wonder if they are at least worse or comparable to what I'm going thru right now at my present
At least I get PTO/sick time, but keep running out of work, and seems like everything falling apart. All work will be going to India soon.

I just want to work for an honest company that treats their employees right. I wonder why that is so difficult to find.
I wish I knew where I could make comparable money. nm

Medquist or TransTech? Comparable offers from both. Who has the better accounts

better platform, reliable pay days, etc.


Thanks!


Using Vianeta to do our work is comparable to eating soup with a fork!

I've used both PC SH & Instant Text and they are comparable ... would love to hear comparison (s
Shorthand (or my version of it) seems to have a compatibility problem with the Bayscribe platform Expander ...so I just use ShortHand (I don't know if it's just my quite old version or not) ...

I switched from Instant Text to Shorthand when the in-house Meditech job I was working agreed to install Shorthand for the department.

I believe they both have 90 day or some such downloadable trials.

If you have more than one computer, it's not a bad idea to buy the disk and documentation so if you need/want to reinstall it, it's there ... though that may be old school thinking on my part.

Good luck.
where they 35 comparable reports - or 35 short and 35 long reports? nm
