Right, I'm Enterprise. On our side, vacations aren't the reason for 0 work.

The Enterprise side uses Enterprise. nm

do you know something about the Enterprise side
that we don't, in regards to there being no work here, I mean?  really bad today.  I keep getting NSA well into afternoon and that rarely happens...
Diskriter, Webmedx (Enterprise side), Focus (maybe - haven't looked at their adds in a while).
nm
And I work Enterprise accounts
So this whole thing is just really strange.
Maybe all that work should come off CM and move to Enterprise? sm
Maybe it's better all the way around and we won't suffer like you are?
Busier than ever what with vacations and all
nm
Tons of work on Enterprise. Should be last frustrating. Good luck. nm

I do not work on the VR side...
I work on the Dictaphone side and have 2 AWESOME supervisors.
I work for them on the dictaphone side...
and LOVE it. They have good benefits, and my supervisors on my primary and secondary accounts are AWESOME! Also, the platform is really good and even works with my shorthand. It also has it's own Expander (ESP), which I hear is really great also. HTH
I work for the DSG-2 side. One account has some bad audio sm
some of the time-not all.  Otherwise I am happy where I am.  I cannot speak for the other side which has different accounts. 
I work on acute care accounts, so I can't speak for the radiology side. (SM)
The work does look like it's beginning to pick up though for acute care.
I want to know why ICs are still allowed to work when employees aren't getting work!!!
ICs should be the first to get NJA!!!!
I've been there for years, work on the DSG1 side of things, pay on time, direct deposit, more
feedback lately.  I have always found the staff and MTs helpful and friendly.  Work does fluctuate, but if you have a few accounts, should keep you busy, also sound quality can be an issue but mostly okay.
Do you think all the headers and footers aren't getting counted? Lots of places aren't giving

I can't believe you are MISSING a day when we are all drowning in work. You either aren't
working your scheduled hours during the week OR you need a backup account. Either way, there is more than enough to go around.
Guess you don't work for MDI-MD and aren't psychic either....
and yet you still didn't answer the question as to whether you work with MDI-MD.

Guess that answers my pot-stirring question.

Thanks!!!

No, not enough work.... that is the reason why
I am looking to leave. We have been out of work for over a month now! Also, back in November. Also, back in August, etc. My sup is nice. No complaints about Quality. Equipment is okay (big-time old monitor). Platform leaves a lot to be desired - SUPER slow and locks frequently. Pay is decent WHEN THERE IS WORK!
That TT is getting all the work now for some reason or another ! n/m
zzzzzzzzzzzzz
The reason there is little to no work

A practice of a few of my fellow MTSO owners, particularly the large MTSOs, as well as employers in general these days.


 


They do behind-the-scenes deals with businesses related to MT, such as MT schools and MT equipment/software dealers, to benefit financially, if not save themselves, including sending work from US-based employees directly to overseas divisions and operations, without informing the US employees.  Can’t blame them for looking out for their financial interests! CAN blame them for 1) sending work overseas when there are well qualified MTs right here in the States, and 2) not communicating with their employees.  You MT employees who are out of work for longer than a day and do not have another gig need to file for unemployment, period.  I know it can be complicated for MTs to get unemployment, but if you signed up for FT work and don’t get to work FT, you get unemployment.  I guarantee that filing for unemployment is something us MTSO owners, or any employer for that matter, does not want to deal with.  But get ready - you may find that your work will increase, but most likely you will be given the bad dictators (they send the good ones to the overseas folks who won't work for X amount of money to transcribe the bad dictators). 


True but I got news for ya - you aren't going to get steady work anywhere that way.-
An MTSO has an account to cover. Period. She will give the work to whomever is willing to be flexible enough to cover the account. Even an IC has to work within some framework, not just whenever I feel like it, right?
Disorganized. If you aren't the favorite, then forget it. Never enough work
so you can work your schedule.  But if you don't get your line count, you are expected to do whatever it takes to make it.  Keep looking -- there are better companies out there. not to mention you'll get talked about behind your back
Are you saying those of us who work for nat'ls aren't "normal, regular" MTs? LOL. NM
.
Which is great to work for LeePerfect or KeyStrokes? They are different, aren't they? nm
nm
No I don't know - but that is the big reason why I don't take work from them anymore -
They would just send a check in the mail and nothing else - I wanted a breakdown, I got nothing.  What the heck???
Little to no work was the main reason.

I kept asking for backup accounts and for weeks couldn't get any, despite there being several accounts with OT on them.  Talked with upper management and finally got 2 backup accounts, neither of which had any work on them.  I was getting tops 20 hours a week and that was having to sit in front of the computer for 12 hour stints and check every 5 minutes to see if a report came in. I was working 7 days a week and trying all shifts to get in lines, so it wasn't a matter of me not making an effort.


Enterprise has lots of bugs in it and despite promises that the most current update would take care of the problem it never did.  I would lose jobs, the system would freeze up and I had to reboot.  All the while you are clocked in so your line count goes to heck.  The system was so slow most days that I would sit a minute in between reports, which affects your line count because you're on the clock and not being productive.    They have nice incentives but because of the above there was no way to reach them.


They denied overhiring, but they did way overhire and they lost several good MTs about the same time I left because there wasn't enough work.  Lots of people were frustrated and posted on the boards here and then we were reprimanded for doing so.  The internal boards were so heavily monitored that anything the least bit negative was deleted.  Talking to my STM was like banging my head against a brick wall, so basically there was nowhere to go.  We also got several e-mails with the threat of having to go to India and I wasn't going to have that dangled in front of me all the time.  I was doing my part.


I cried every single day I was there I hated it so much. 


 


 


The reason there is low work/no work during the week is because so many of YOU at TT want

TO WORK BANKER's HOURS and DAYS and NOTHING ELSE !!   Poor baby . . .


Aren't you a positive person? I suppose you work in the office at HIS. lol nm

I wonder if these students aren't doing some Webmedx dictation already with work volumes as they
It ain't all the economy. They are either OVERHIRING incredibly or the work is going somewhere else. Definitely. They should have the decency to be straight with us.
The reason Transcend is offshoring is because no one here wants to work for them! nm

There is a good reason why we work on production . . .
and that reason is production is the only way we will make money. You don't get raises with wage pay and you're basically locked in with no chance to increase your earnings.
YEP...Just want I suspected as the reason we have very little work OVERHIRING
They repeatedly hire yet we have hardly any work. Course, I suppose it could be the revolving door as the cause.
I quit twice. Both times for the same reason...low/no work. nm

At least she gave you a real reason and not just "seasonal" low work. n.m
.
C-phone accounts aren't any better, not enough work to make line counts there either. Sigh
nm
I have heard they will have three main offices. Is there a reason Amherst is so short of work. What
is it they are trying to accomplish. They must be losing MTs if there is no work. No the new ASR rate is not out yet. If it goes low you will see an exodus off ASR I guess so that will mean more MTs on the regular work. It will be a big shock for some of them to see what that is like now.
I have heard other people comment on lack of work and have left for that reason. How much of an

issue can this be.  Also, is the sound on these accounts poor.  That is the other problems I have heard people comment on.  I was really looking for uptodate comments.  How bad are these issues at present.  I dont want to leave one company with no work problems and go to another one with the same problem.  I cant be available 24/7 to get work with having a family.

I guess this explains part of the reason we keep running out of work. My office lost a lot of huge
accounts in the past year.
Who said people who work for KS aren't happy for people who work for (sm)
other companies?  I'm happy for people who are happy with their jobs, no matter what company they work for. 
Enterprise. NM

As far as I know they are Enterprise
All my accounts are Enterprise, and my supe mentioned the new accounts, so I assumed these were.
Enterprise
I like it much better than ChartMatrix. I was asked to help out on ChartMatrix from time to time and Enterprise is easier to work with.
Enterprise Platform
Does anyone here use the Enterprise platform and if so, is it fast?  Using DocQScribe and moving to Enterprise - can anyone compare the 2?
Enterprise Slowness
Any other Webbers out there spending half or more of their time waiting on screen changes, etc.  I'm about to throw this thing out the window.  My line counts are  suffering!!  AND it is only Enterprise.  Everything else is plenty fast!
Enterprise - My accounts are in OT right now.

At Webmedx, Enterprise does this. nm

chartmatrix vs enterprise
Anybody know the difference in these 2 platforms and which is better?
Enterprise has been great for me s/m
I've never had any document disappear, and I really like Enterprise. Occasionally slow, but I have attributed that to my internet service, because when Enterprise is slow, so is everything else on my PC that is on the net. Enterprise is easy to use, IMHO.
Webmedx, Enterprise
I do Radiology on Enterprise for Webmedx and run out of work on a daily basis. I enjoy working on Enterprise, there is just not enough work. I also work on Chartmatrix, but prefer Enterprise.
I'm on the Enterprise platform
They had me use their computer. I have the family insurance, including medical, dental, and vision. I do approximately 9000 to 10,000 lines a week when work isn't slow (which isn't often on my 2 accounts) or I'm not dealing with any sick kids (this winter has been AWFUL).
