The only two I can think of off the top of my head are Webmedx and Acusis, but I know there are many more. They realize you can't edit at 2x typing speed and they know they can't keep their MTs at less than that. Like everyone else, my paycheck was horrible. Time to move on and leave them with all the newbies who will be happy to work for them.
