Does anyone know anything about this company?  I tried to download their instruction files, and when I double click on the installation file like the directions say, it just brings up a page of symbols.  There's got to be another way.


The lady wanted me to start right away today, and sent me all the things I have to download (Voice Scribe), then it was late in the day and I didn't get it all downloaded by the time she left at 4:45 PM.  Now I'm not sure if I can do this. I can't call her back until Monday.

Superior Transcribing, New York..sm
anyone have any experience with this company? QA seems rude and they seem to nitpick every comma and I am not sure how long I will last on that job. Would appreciate any info.

I did well on my tests, but was told after 30 days of being with them I would have to pay $600 for their platform, payable at $25 a week. Did you have to pay this? The only contact I had was with Rosanne.

Need opinions. I am part of the Northeast region of MQ or New York and we have been told that they

want to keep all the accounts so I assume that means all the NE Region within one hour of being out of work and out of work every night or caught up. Now I ask you where does this leave the MTs. I am speaking of acute care accounts with TAT of 12, 24 and 48 hours. Our offifce accounts are already complaining of poor quality work coming back to them because of just everyone being thrown into them to get the work done so I guess to accomplish this ridiculous obssessive 1 hour complete work situtation they will lose accounts and quite obviously MTs as running that close to complete in my option will run us continuously out of work into backups and of course then we are watched for how much of our work goes to QA etc. Does this seem like a no win situation. ASR has picked over all the accounts already also on DQS. I can see looking around very soon depending on how this situation plays out. Is this idea crazy or is it normal.


 


 


We keep getting these ridiculous bulletins carbon copies to everyone in New York MQ it seems telling
us how far off this TAT we are. I think they should stick their 1 hour TAT where the light doesnt shine. The only time the TAT for 1 hour percentage is right is when there is no work. I think MQ needs to be looking for some new managers or soon that is all there will be left, all managers no workers to pay their freaking salaries.
Awhile back they got a New York account that everybody is fussing about the ESLs
x
It depends how fast they are growing. I worked for a company in New York that sm
had 5 new accounts start, 1 a month for 5 months, that were all very large and needed 20+ MTs. They are now a larger company and do not constantly need new MTs, but I think it is unfair to judge a company by how many people it is hiring. I think it would be interested to find out how many are new positions and how many are due to MTs leaving and why they left.
Anyone know any info on Silent Type out of New York? I don't know how to find in archives. Thnx
nm
As a recruiter, I'd hire an Andrews grad in a New York minute. You're doing a great job of se
They are properly trained. They are ready and able to work from day #1.
Wouldn't YOU like to have training that made you a hot commodity the minute you graduate? Maybe you should go back to school so you can be an arrogant MT and not be penalized because you aren't cutting it.

As a famous model once said Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

Good luck in your future endeavors.

SUPERIOR

Does anyone know what Superior is paying for acute care?  What about editing for acute care?  I have been approached by them for this area and do not want to make a change that would put me in a worse position than I am in now.  Do they have a lot of ESLs?  I have read some of the previous posts about them - both good and bad.  I am just looking to make a change, but want to be very careful and not get burned.  My position now is part-time and I can get no answer as to when my workload will pick up.  I am considering looking elsewhere for employment (part-time) as I only transcribe on an average of two days per week.   I was thinking retail or something close by my home, as I live in a very populated city and there are many part-time jobs available.  I hate to think about doing acute care for 8 or 9 cents per line.  Thanks.


superior
everything the above replier says is true.
superior

I heard from a very good source they require 2400 lines per day.  Have not verified it.


Superior Global
You know - I left there 2 weeks ago.  I know from a past experience - this company holds checks.  You are one of the lucky ones who if you get your check on-time if they do not bounce.  Does anyone know if contractors have any rights?  Are they allowed to hold money even if the equipment has been returned? 
Superior Global
I have been very happy with this company. The checks arrive on time and they leave me alone and let me do what I do best.
Superior Global

Just wondering if anyone knows anything good or bad about Superior Global - thanks


Superior Global

This company is a waste.  First of all - they bounce checks to most of their employees.  They say they do not outsource - but they do.  The owners run and hide at payroll time -- constantly have their phones shut off, and the insurance is constantly canceled as they do not pay the premiums.  Not to mention, they still owe the overseas group greater than 20,000. 


 


Superior Global
I just heard the same story today. They don't pay!

I have never been in a situation where I broke my back typing for 15 days and had to beg for my money. I couldn't think of anything worse, except of course illness.
Superior Global
I completely agree, worked for them. Pay was not on time, typical excuses. I left there in a hurry. There are other jobs where they do pay on time believe me please.
Superior Global
Somebody asked about Superior Global a few weeks ago............the same things were said about not paying on time. This is not just a rumor. This is true...........Please listen or you will be out on the street waiting to get paid by this company............Unless they have changed.
Superior Global
I know that the small company that I was previously employed with lost all of their HCA accounts to Superior Global and most everyone that had worked with me went to work for them. I chose not to, as I was tired of radiology work. From what I hear, these people are happy. They are working on accounts that they have worked on in the past and have plenty of work. I don't know for a fact that they outsource, I just know that my friends are not hurting for work and like the change to Superior from the company we had worked for previously. They also had no compete contracts, but have not been legally pursued by the other company - probably because they lost all their accounts and can't afford to sue anyone now.
superior globa
True, true. You must have worked there the same time I did. I did have direct deposit and the first few times the pay was on time, but then around Christmas, we had to remind them that it was payday. the big account they lost when I was there was with a hospital in Alabama.
re: superior global
I received an email from this company in response to an email that I'd sent a long time ago. I did some research on a few different sites and found lots of negatives in regards to pay.

I emailed them back and stated that I was not seeking a position. I later thought about it and decided that I wanted to get the info directly from the source. I emailed the individual and stated that I had read that there were problems with MTs being paid in a timely matter and asked if this was true. I never received a response.

I don't want to work for any company who cannot pay me on time.
Superior Global
I heard they don't pay either!
pay at Superior Global
Any idea what Superior Global pays for experienced hospital transcriptionists??
Superior Global
Pay is low and sometimes late. Not very well organized and many accounts are on Meditech that doesn't allow you to work in Word, then cut and paste into Meditech.
Superior Global sm

I don't think I'm going to go with this company.  I found out they don't have direct deposit.   I don't like late paychecks and I don't like my check mailed to me.  About 10 years ago, I worked as an IC and had my check mailed to me.  One time it was mailed to another company instead of to me.  It was cashed.  Luckily, the company returned the money to me.  I don't think I want to do that again.


 


Thanks for the input.


Superior Global
The VPN there is very slow. You cannot make any money. You have to jump through a ton of different windows before you even begin to type. I did work for them one day and quit -- they never paid me for what I did either.
Superior Global
I previously worked for them and they were great people. Pay was always on time (direct deposit)
Superior Global
Anyone have any new info on Superior Global?  I was thinking of applying, but can't find any recent info.  Thanks!
Superior Global
Anyone working for Superior Global, comments? Steady work?  ESLs?
Superior Global seems to have a 1 up from old

Superior pay is low if you have experience nm

Superior Global
Low, low pay. Combination of VR and traditional transcription. I work there but am getting out. They pay at the poverty level. An insult to an experienced transcriptionist. I have no idea about Alltype.
What does Superior Global pay for VR on eS? nm

VR - Superior global
Cannot remember exactly, but it is somewhere in the 3-4 cent range per line for editing and then if you get anything that requires typing, it is 9 cents a line.  I am a little confused myself as to how this actually works.  I have been thinking about doing this myself part-time, but I just hear nothing positive about VR.  You can email kboudreaux@superiorglobal.com and she can tell you for sure about the money.  Good Luck.
About Superior Global
I was hired and worked there for maybe one month.  They really pressured me to get started and once I got hooked up with everything, as I had to buy a different foot pedal, which was not easy to come by -- well then I was ready to start and they had no work to send me.  This kept on happening for one week and then I quit.  I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden they had no work and would not send me anything.  I would never go with this company and highly advise anyone not to waste their time applying.  They are very disorganized and promise you work, but then turn their back on you.   Thumbs down.  
superior global's different....

Superior Global Solutions does not have direct deposit, BUT my pay checks always arrive at least 2-3 days prior to payday.  So, there are some companies out there that do their employees right even without DD.


 


 


If you mean Superior Global
I work for them and really like it a lot. I havent found them short of work at all, we are always busy, and they seem to get new accounts every 3-6 months too.

I think the pay is comparable as well - there are those paying more and those paying less.
Superior Global
Thanks for your reply! Can you tell me if health insurance was affordable? I only need to cover myself. Thanks!
Superior Global
I wouldn't waste your time.  You will most likely QA reports that were transcribed by Sri Lankan or Indian transcriptionists.  The owner bought into an overseas transcription company and is slowly sending all of the accounts overseas to be typed only to have to be completely redone by American QAs.  I just lost my job with Superior Global due to them sending the work overseas even after the doctor's office warned them not to.  It used to be a great company to work for and the account I was on was a dream but if I were you (or anyone else) I'd stay away from them!
