It is confidential information - here is why.

Posted By: Smaller MTSO on 2006-01-08
In Reply to: Question for the MTSOs who are around tonight - sm

Not every MT has the same experience level so, those with more experience are paid a better line rate in most instances. It is the MT's responsibility to negotiate or at least try to negotiate their line rate and what line rate they are willing to work for. Not company pays a base rate to every MT or QA person.

This of course is my opinion and the way I do business. Some may agree, some may not, it really doesn't matter. This is the way it is!

Payroll information is confidential information in my book.

It is not confidential information. This was told to you by someone -
in my opinion, you are not breaking confidentiality in any way letting fellow MTs know. It does not say in this post that you work for this small national or you work where the account is supposed to be going. So, if this is true, you are not breaking any confidentiality agreements.

Companies release and gain contracts all the time. Maybe this small national will lose one account but gain another. It happens every day.

I don't think there is any reason for panic or for you to carry a heavy heart, unless you work for one of these 2 companies. Then, you may need to think twice about saying a word.

If you do talk - do not mention names and do not mention the other company.

Again, good luck with whatever you decide.
May not be confidential information but gossip/rumor at this point and no employer likes that.

I know confidential and this is not it. sm
It is MY information.  That is like telling me I cannot tell someone what hair color I have.  It is MY info, garnered from MY hard work.  The money now belongs to me, not the company.  If you still have a problem with this, then tell someone what you made last month.  That would be YOUR old information, had been your information for a month and should be YOUR information to do with whatever you want.
Its not so much confidential as none of your
business!! I hate it when people have the hutzpah to ask flat out what someone makes. If they want to volunteer it, fine. But its rude to just ask someone. And if they give you a figure, chances are huge that its bogus. Ask for a pay range - fine. Proper business etiquette. Buts its totally ignorant to just ask someone what they make - a complete stranger - and then get pissed when they POLITELY tell you they don't wanna give you that info. Get professional! You might make more $$.

Confidential to MTSO2
With all due respect.........where will YOU be working when all the jobs are gone???  Do you REALLY think the clients will continue to need a middleman???  I think not.  Pity the poor souls who work for you.
Confidential to Paula
I was laid off from Focus QA about a year ago.  However, they have reorganized and rehired me recently.  The money is great and is much more than the hourly job I used to have.  Yes, they do have day shift.  They will pretty much work with whatever hours you can work.  The team leads are Americans now.  Good luck.

Confidential? Interesting word to use on this board.
I didn't see anyone's name, nor did I see any specific examples given. This person has the same rights to say what they think or feel, just as an MT does.
What info is in that email that is confidential or private?

Why is pay rate confidential? It is YOUR money that YOU made with YOUR hard work. You should be

In my opinion what you make is confidential and I have seen people get fired for discussing rates.
That all goes along in confidentiality agreements. I am in agreement with you though..it really is not anyone's business. If they want to know, they need to ask the company. The company will probably tell them.

Anyone know anything about Global Information Systems? Any information would be appreciated. nm

MedScribe Information Systems, Inc - Information please?

Anyone with information on this company? 


How can a message be confidential if it posted on a public message board? nm

If you don't know what is confidential, you have no business being in any business.
This is confidential information and should not be divulged. It is one of the biggest problems a co can have. If you have to ask...well I won't be able to explain it to you
Looking for information on QED. sm
I have never heard of them before.  I read some old archives but am interested in hearing from any recent employees.  I've heard the pay is low.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you. 
Information
Does anyone know anything about a company called Archivus?
SM for information.
An expander is a program in which you put in shortcuts to "expand" to longer words, sentences, and phrases. For example, typing "forex" produces "for example." They can be used for phrases like
tp for the patient
lt for left
rt for right
egdx for esophagogastroduodenoscopy

Shorthand and Instant Text are 2 of the most popular.

Does anyone have any information
TIA
Thank you for the information!
That is helpful.
Thanks for the information.

You were very kind to respond.


No, but if this were information
 that was really any of your business, you wouldn't have to ask.

Does anyone have any information
I have asked a few times and can find nothing when I do a search on them? TIA
A little information for you

I am not the original person who answered your post, but I also work for Amphion.  When you are first hired with them, they will basically ask you what hours you plan on working.  They are hours of your choosing, but they just ask that you try to stay working that schedule, so that they can provide adequate coverage on their accounts.  They are, however, very accommodating should you need to change your schedule.  They hire both part-time and full-time employee status.  Very nice folks to work for!  Good luck to you. 


Sorry, don't have information but would like to know
Thanks.
I like to come here for information..., sm

but by the time you wade through all the hateful remarks, it just makes you sick!  I am very glad for the time spent on getting rid of some of the junk around here. 


Information
Can you email me with more information?  Where are you located?  How many MTs work for you currently?  Thanks!
I'd appreciate any information on any of these, too
--but I can say I did consider FastChart a few years ago; my decision was between them and my current employer, for whom I work as an employee and not as an IC, as I would have with FastChart.

What killed my consideration of FastChart was the poor line rate; I believe it was 0.065/line at the time, and that, coupled with IC status and filing my own taxes, etc., just didn't beat EDiX's offer of 0.07/line plus benefits.

I'm most curious about Oracle and Proscript and appreciate the PS feedback already provided. At this point, I'll take any advice anyone offers, though. I just don't think the future at my present company is looking so bright.

Thanks, all.
There is quite a bit of information in the
archives on Spheris. I worked there and have posted much about them (positive experience). I even posted a lengthy comparison between Spheris and MedQuist.

If you will do a search, you will find plenty of information.


Thanks for the information!

Information (SM)
If you are referring to the parent company of MedQuist, you need to take this discussion to the MQ board.

ALL discussions about MQ are to be on that particular board.

I am letting your post stand for now to see if you will clarify if there is a private MTSO called Phillips MT that you are inquiring about.

Thanks for the information. sm
Everything that I heard about them was good, until I took the job offer, of course!
My information to do with what I want. sm
I agree it is crass to ask someone what they make.  I do not agree that someone has the right to tell my personal information cannot be shared with whomever I chose to share it with. 
Thanks for the information. - sm
I guess this should have been titled autotext or word Expander question! They (Futurenet) told me they have a Word Expander program, but I'm guessing they meant the autotext feature in MS Word.

This is in addition to your line rate.


Where do you get your information?
Please let me know where you heard this because I have worked for Precyse for quite awhile, continue to have the same accounts (probably because they have a lot of ESLs and nobody else wants them).  I do know they have some accounts and MTs testing it out, but are quick to tell us that with the problems all the other companies are having, they are quite hesitant about how efficient and productive it would be. 
More information please!
