Tons of stuff in the archives or scroll down a
bit.  They have been discussed extensively here recently.  For the most part it is all good. 
There is tons of stuff in the archives and if you'll
scroll down the current page you'll see lots os posts about them too.  For the most part everyone seems to be very happy with TT.

your original post and near the bottom click on the blue related posts (or something like that) you'll get the most recent posts.


I worked for them for a few months.  It wasn't a good fit for me, but there are many happy MTs there and I think there have been positives than negatives posted about them. 


 


Scroll down a week or so. Tons of good stuff. Great company

Read the archives. Lots of stuff recently. Not good.
 
Been discussed almost daily lately. Tons of stuff in
the archives.  They overhire, running out of work common. 
Tons of info about them in the archives.
They ran an ad a few weeks ago and supposedly got 500 resumes.  It seems they are constantly hiring, don't know if new accounts or turnover.   Some people seem very loyal and love it, lots of others have had problems. 
Check archives. Tons there.

There is a lot of stuff in the archives but
nothing good.  They are an Indian company with just a store front in the US.

Lots of stuff about them in the archives, none of it
good.  I don't have your answers, but they offshore big time. 
I would like to know too, found some stuff in archives (sm)
something about outsourcing to India, but I didn't see anything that was particularly current.

By the way, I'm looking at DTS America out of Brentwood, TN, I think?
Lots of stuff in the archives, but it is a horrible
company.  Some of the worst ESLs, sound quality horrible at least on some accounts, frequent turnover.  I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone. 
GOOD MTs aren't ... but there are tons of crappy ones
Finding one that is actually GOOD in this business? nearly impossible. I do editing and QA (and have been an MT for 22 years) and I see nothing but horrid work day in and day out.
I do Rad for TT. Pay is good, tons of work, decent accounts. I know they are hiring a few more
Rad MTs now. I would highly recommend.
Tons of work on Enterprise. Should be last frustrating. Good luck. nm

Keystrokes....very flexible, tons of work, great leads, good pay...
I love it there...
Yep, bad stuff is sometimes good
and good stuff is sometimes bad.  A couple of times I've really wished for things that eventually came true and they were definitely NOT in my best interests in the long run.  (Thinking of one guy in particular.)  It's hard to be philosophical when you miss out on something you felt you wanted or needed, but time often proves this was the best thing.  Wish the best for you. 
Lots and lots of recent stuff in archives.
 
Lots of stuff in the achives, nothing good.
You can open your post and click on the see related posts link to bring up info.  You can open those posts and see all the responses related to that one too. 
Maybe their supervisors give them the good stuff on
complain to upper management or HR, you get ignored because the supervisor always covers herself with lies and/or using TAT as the excuse.  Sit on that TAT and rotate. 
Do a search. Lots of recent stuff--good and bad. nm

Zylo gives the good stuff to their favorites. New employees
get the leftover junk. Worked for them for 6 months recently, loved it at first except I wasn't getting enough work. 1000 lines one day, 200 the next, 75 the next. Kept asking for more work but never got it. Fortunately I didn't quit my job with Medquist and still had that for backup. Finally left last November.
I think it's that services only get the overflow & the garbage anymore. All the good stuff is kep

I've been looking for years. It's always a mix anymore. Good stuff gets kept in house. nm

Check the archives - both good and bad. nm

all good if you check the archives

Lots in archives on TRS, nothing good. Don't know
anything about All-type, but I have seen them mentioned so info is in archives too. 
You can check the archives, but not much good about them.
They recently changed their name but can't remember what the other name was.  They offshore, they've cut pay or restructured the pay system so you can't figure out what you're making, sound quality is not good.   I think there is plenty of work because no one stays for long.   They've been offering significant bonuses in the past, bu don't know details. 
Look in the archives. Not too many good things said.

Check the archives. Not good at all.
Totally Indian-based company. All supervisors, QA, and trainers are in India. Very hard to understand. I would avoid them.
There are many good posts in archives
They seem to have a good platform and plenty of work.  I just applied myself after looking in the archives and reading the most recent posts.
Search the archives, nothing good. nm
 
Check the archives. Not very good.
I worked there very briefly about 3 years ago and hated every minute of it. It's an Indian company. Read the archives.
all OSI info is old in archives. Anything recent good/bad?

mostly -- are the lines an absolute bear to get; i.e., will I have to work 12 hours a day to get 1000 lines?  Or do they seem fairly fair won?


 


Thanks


I can't seem to access the archives. Is this a good company?
D&L talks a good game.  Am frustrated running out of work with Medquist yet again!  Does anyone know if D&L is a decent company to work for? 
Read the archives. Many posts, none good. nm
 
search archives, couple good, mostly negative

Yep. Like other poster said, lots in the archives. 99+% good feedback
on this company. Check the archives.
Seems to be good and bad in the archives. Rude & running out of work to very professional, great

Why don't you just go to MQ? They seem to be having TONS OF FUN 24/7!-nm

I have used it tons
It is a pretty easy system to get used to. A lot of nationals use it.  It is the same testing system that Career Step uses for their final.  I like it better than some of the other tests that I have taken.  Just don't close out of your objective portion or when you log back in you will have a whole new test.  That happened to me before. 
Tons of work

I don't know what account other poster is on but she should probably check with her supervisor about the no work issue--that doesn't sound like Amphion.


The account I'm on is never out of work and it is always available to work on, overtime included.  I love Amphion and have been at several different companies.


Amphion gives me the freedom to do my work and keeps me in work but they don't bug me to death about work.  They go above and beyond to create macros, request software changes that get approved for MTs to use to make our jobs easier.  I get employee benefits including retirement and PTO and I couldn't be happier. I'm also not bombarded with emails all day like I was at TRS a few years ago.  The supervisors and QA are great!  I was not sure when I started because I was skeptical from past jobs, so I started part-time and kept my other full-time MT job, then made the switch to full-time with Amphion after a few months and I am so glad I did.


 


If anyone remembers Omnimed from a few years back, they are now back as Amphion.  You really have to just give it a shot to see if they're a good fit. 


There are tons of comments
All you have to do is start going back on the company board. On each page of posts go to edit on your menu bar and then select 'find on this page' and type OSI. Or you can search the archives. Most of the posts are not good at all.
If you don't have tons of experience, why not?
I have a decent amount of experience (6 years), but if you want to compete against people with 20+ years' experience, it certainly can't hurt to get your CMT and get everything you can possibly put on your resume.  The test and studying for it did teach me a lot.

So...while it's correct that a lot of places don't care if you have a CMT, some places do.  Seek them out.

While we're on the subject, I still haven't done anything to earn my continuing ed credits...  I bought this book on amazon with a bunch of articles in it that supposedly you can summarize for continuing ed credit.  Bo-ring...that's the last thing I wanna do with my free time.  But it's something, anyway.
