PS - Archives give conflicting information.

Some posts say they provide no benefits. Some posts say they have a line count quota and other posts say there is no line quota. Some say they deduct for errors and other posts say they don't deduct. Some posts say they offshore and other posts say the don't offshore. Very confused. That's why I posted another inquiry into this company.

Any new information on eTransPlus?? Everything is old in the archives.
TIA for any information. Apparently they are hiring for a new account and have a sign-on bonus so I thouht I'd check it out. Thanks
All that information is in the archives. It may even be 3 or 4 posts

down from where you are asking.  Maybe how many years of experience they have isn't listed, but then there are no guidelines which we are told to follow about posting about a company.   I know I worked for SoftScript and it was horrendous and I didn't have any non-ESL dictators.  Someone else will post about how wonderful a company it is, but all of the Ex-SS have figured out it is probably management because we ALL know better.   I figure there is there are at least a dozen posts and 11 of them are negative then it is a bad company.  I do agree though that a newbie doesn't know there is anything better out there. 


Many times people post read the archives and I'm guilty of that, because a company has been discussed so much and the very same questions asked again and again and again.   I tihnk it is up to us to do our own research, just like the word boards aren't for those too lazy to Google something. 


 


You can search the archives for more information.
I had looked up the platform too and I think it's worth a try.  Again, I've been on platforms like Escription which I averaged $30 an hour on and others have said they were starving. So, again, I think it is also up to the person.
Lots of information in the archives, but I
think the general concensus is Spheris isn't a good company.
Found the information in the archives, thanks (sm)

I called the phone number and it answers for Macro-Solutions.  I also checked with the BBB and sure enough they have been in business for a long time and have an excellent rating BUT the contact name is different than the name given with the BBB, but that could be because it is the HR person posting the ad.  I still think that something is fishy with it, who knows though.


 


Any information on All Type. Could not find anything in the archives.

I know they are hiring so I am just trying to gather some information before applying.


I noticed that some of the archives had contradicting information also.
 Thought maybe someone that worked for them currently or recently could give some insight.   I guess no job is perfect and there is good and bad everywhere, just depends on what you can and can't live with.  Have been offered a job and just want to make the best informed decision I can.
There is lots of current information in the archives.

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


 


Search the archives, there is loads of information
on this company, IF it is the one out of Fort Mill, SC, and none of the information is good, bouncing checks, no pay, etc., etc., etc.  
These conflicting statements may be due to their
hiring seasoned MTs. The person interested would need to ask them directly.
Can someone give me the scoop on Trans Health..nothing in archives...NM
NM
Any NEW information about Interpro? All I find in the archives arent very recent
x
I do not give out that information. However one co I made $17
was Medquist. My current company pays different rates to different QA and I would never post what I earn. They do not need QA people. Just do the best you can and try and negotiate a fair QA rate for yourself. It will come. Unfortunately, even at $17, that is only half of what I earned as an MT. I once had a QA position that paid me $20 as an employee. You just have to negotiate.
When I advertise, I give all that information as
well as all information related to the job.

I worked for one company once that had their pre-canned ads. I hated them because they told nothing. They did give their website, but it was way old.

I agree that all companies that advertise for MTs need to give their website
Can someone give me information on Precyse Solutions...sm
I would like any and all information regarding Precyse Solutions...I know they are Employee Status.  But could you tell me about their pay, cost of health insurance, etc.  Thanks.
Can any give me some general information about Keystrokes? (sm)
I am considering applying to them as they sound like a great company to work for.  What platform do they use?  Is it internet based?  C-phone?  Something else?  How easy and MT friendly is that platform?  How is the work load?  And finally, do they hire IC, PT, and/or FT?  Thank you.
Have done that. Information is old. Anyone care to give input? nm
nm
No, we did not give out information. No court order involved. sm
Obviously, TT was able to look at the information provided in the posts and determine who they FELT were making the posts.

No information has been given out by MTStars on this situation whatsoever.

Move on.

Can anyone give me information on Transcend Services Voice Recognition editors? sm
I was offered a job with them.  Curious as to how good their benefits are, how easy the program is, and if the dictations are REALLY awful or just as any others.  Any input on anything to do with the company and/or information on Voice Recognition editors would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance!
"warned" by someone who won't give facts or sign her name. Give me a break! nm

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

They used to give out $25 Amex cheques -- give them time. :-) nm

MedScribe Information Systems, Inc - Information please?

Anyone with information on this company? 


I get what you are all saying about them not having to give give you work, but...
I guess I just figure that as an IC, I am basically my own business and it is my responsibility to make sure that the work is done when it should be. I just think that if the standard of the company is 24 hour TAT then that is what I am agreeing to do when they hire me. There are advantages for both of us to the IC senerio, they do not have to pay benefits, or take care of collecting and reporting the taxes, and I have to adhear to the 24 hour TAT (or what every thier standards are) but can do that during hours that are convenient to me. Of course it is better for the company if they know exactly when I am going to be sitting at my desk and typing that is why they have the option of hiring employees. Just my opinion and wanting things to be like they used to be.. I guess I have to get out of my time warp or look a little harder for a company who really knows what IC status means.
Give it time, sweetie, give it time.

Yes they have paid MTs with bounced checks with every worthless excuse under the sun on several occasions among a multitude of other unacceptable business practices.  Please do a search in the archives. 
Archives so old
Does anyone know why all the posts are so old whenever I want to research a company in the archives?  Almost all of them are from 2004 and very few from 2005.  If they were posted in 2005, then they are usually many months old.  Also why aren't they posted in chronological order with newest ones first?  Please help me understand this.  Thanks.
There is a lot in the archives about them.

All of them are still there in the archives. I even went back to reference some myself before even posting my questions.

How do I find out about a company from the archives?
archives???
Can someone tell me why I cannot access the archives any more? Why can I not research companies that are hiring through the archives? Is anyone else having this problem? Also is someone removing the responses to questions posed by people looking for information on certain companies? Just wondering if this is something I am doing wrong or if something new is going on or what. Thanks to anyone who can enlighten me.
MD-IT on archives?
I tried the archives and get nothing. I know there is another company with a similar name...?
Look in the archives. (nm)

Well I looked in archives and only saw one where the person was happy working for them. Somehow I don't think that's your point,so have you worked for them????
Archives are old

Maybe she wanted RECENT information.  The stuff in the archives tends to be fairly old.  I read it too when I was considering them last year. 


I don't know where the info comes from that they only have overflow accounts.  That is not the type of account that I am on with them.  The only regular time there is no work is Sunday.  The only other time there has been no work in the middle of the week was around the holidays when the clinic was closed at Christmas and New Years and most clinics had slow work then.


Bottom line, to the OP, you have to make your own decision.  If you get an offer and have a good feel about it, go for it.  If you don't have a good feel about it, then you need to listen to your instinct.  Good luck with whatever you decide.


Archives help!
Is there something I am doing wrong?  Whenever I do a company search, the only info I get is extremely old, like 5, 6, 7 years.  How do I get more up-to-date info? 
JLG not in archives
Is that a good thing or not. I thought she sounded good and I'll be making just as much per line as I did at MQ. The only difference is instead of Monday thru Friday days, I'll be working Sunday thru Thursday days. Pay dates are the same.
If it's the one in Wisconsin, all bad - see archives nm

I have posts in the archives, none of which SM

are favorable toward Diskriter, but not for the supposed reasons stated above.  This person is seriously misinformed about Diskriter offshoring at this time.  It is my understanding that a long time ago they offshored to the Caribbean islands but that is not happening any more and all the work is kept here in the U.S. now.


Whoever wrote the "Beware" post is not telling the truth.

A while ago there were some posts of people not getting paid and checks bouncing.  I would be careful and investigate.  I don't know much about them but it would be nice if they were a good company.

Medware archives

I just posted something a couple days ago asking about them, if you go almost all the way down to the bottom of this page it should still be there. I got 3 or 4 responses and it was mostly favorable info. So I think that might be the latest on them.  My name on here AvaMQ is behind the posts so it's in that general area. Good Luck!


Check the archives. nm
 
You need to check the archives.

A lot in the archives about Transend.


Have you checked the archives lately?? sm
All those negative posts, and there must have been hundreds, have been deleted. It ain't what you know ....
