I left SPi in December after I could not take any more. I am now with TRS and also have some of my own private accounts.

SPI exodus
Just wondering if anyone knows where a lot of the SPI, former Cymed, MTs and managers have moved on to. Also curious if they are even hiring domestic MTs. Almost a year to the day they announced the merger and reassured all that they were going to keep and expand their domestic team, they announced numerous accounts who requested to be offshored. AH, HA -- SURE.
It was the reason for the last exodus too. But
That's why I left about 5 months ago and a lot of others left before and after me for the same reason. We were saying the same thing you're saying now, but nobody believed us. Said we were the troublemakers and lying. Be prepared to hear the same thing from the cheerleaders and newbies who are still on the honeymoon.
I had a feeling there was a mass exodus
earlier this year. I hung in there with them for six months, but they kept running out of work. I asked to be trained on a second account, but it didn't happen. My supervisor was very nice, but it just didn't work out. I also have 17 years of experience, and had 99+% QA scores. I agree with some of the comments above about looking things up, etc. Oh well...
Bet a mass exodus is taking place.

I started the transition to KS before "mass exodus" sm
but just before and it sometimes required a bit of a wait before I got answers to certain things or equipment that I was supposed to get, etc. and sometimes it only happened after a follow-up email or call. However, I would usually get a pretty quick response from the followup. I don't know how big the staff is but I picture it as maybe medium-sized and I thought they were doing an excellent job of covering for each other during the move, vacations, and I believe someone even left the company. It is a 180-degree difference from what I had been used to with the Mega company I left. 
Trying to beat the mass exodus. May be hard to
OSi has had a mass exodus so there should be plenty of room for newbies

Talk of "mass exodus" and trash-talking a great company
is what you refer to as 'not being thrilled about the switch'?
Are we even reading the same posts?
VR people have tried reasoning with these posters in an effort to reassure them and calm them down, but apparently they're off to the races and thriving on their self-generated hysteria.
So, to answer your question, YES, I have said how much I like VR, only to be accused of lying, being management, an inferior transcriptionist, etc. They don't want to hear reason. They don't want reassurance. They want to draw blood.
These people are vicious with their false accusations and assumptions, and now they're turning their efforts towards a highly respected company that I, and MANY others, love working for because they refuse to catch up with the times. VR is no surprise. It's been a force for years and yet they all act shocked when it comes to pass, and then immediately turn tail and try to denigrate TT for implementing it.
And desperate to attack? WRONG. Because I refuse to sit back and watch my profession and an employer I have nothing but gratitude and respect for run into the ground are things I will not abide.
Not thrilled with the switch? These people have the same mentality as those who were burning books in ages past.
SCARY.
