Transolutions..a fair and good company..sm

I no longer work for this company as I did not like the platform (MedType)...however, if you want an honest and fair company and can deal with the platform, these people are great. I just got a birthday card from them 3 weeks after quitting. That is going far beyond the expected in my opinion. The people on their staff are wonderful to work with and if I could handle DOS-based platforms, I might consider going back to them...just not my cup of tea.

Transolutions is Very Fair
I have found Transolutions to be very fair as well.  While I'm having trouble meeting my line counts, to this point they have been very fair in allowing me ample time to get up to speed.  Also, I was a bit leary about using a DOS-based system, but so far I am very happy with that too.  No complaints here.
QA is good, they are fair - DSG not the only one with low volumes
Some days I think the industry itself is in a death spiral... there certainly has been a yo-yo effect for a while now on volume.

My suggestion is that people start looking in other directions at least for back up/part time income. I could be wrong but I just don't see a reversal happening in this industry.

Not only is VR working against us, it will only improve with time - and possibly to an extent that will even reduce VR positions. Likely more software is in development that will further erode job opportunities and/or drive down wages.

Outsourcing is playing a huge role as well.

Not to create or add to anyone's panic, but read the writing on the wall before it's too late - diversify your skills and don't put all your eggs in the transcription basket, cuz me thinks there's an egg-sized hole in the bottom. insert wry smiley face here.
I don't think that's true or fair. Most of the posts about KS are good. sm
I work there, have worked there a while and am very happy and know many, many others who have been there a while and are very happy too. They have improved rather than fallen apart as many companies seem to do. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a fair, caring, well-paying, high line count, good benefits providing company. I am in acute care but know many others in radiology and ortho and clinic. Yes, we compare notes with each other (many came from Edix and MRC) and everyone is happy. They keep getting new accounts and the new accounts are getting bigger and bigger.

I agree that OT pay (or lack of) was a problem but when they said no more OT work, many complained to the point that they said to work the production you want.

It is disheartening to sit back and read posts that are so negative when I know the opposite to be true. It can chase people away from working for a wonderful company. I think we see more posts because there are more employees and because they are always hiring due to new accounts. I also know that every manager, including the owner, that I have ever talked to, really cares and really wants to continue to make Keystrokes better and better. I think they are doing a great job.

As for running out of work, I know that there are ups and downs in transcription and they try to be fair during those times, spreading the work around. I also know that sometimes when a new account starts, the volume will be go up and down because they are working on the perfect staffing mix.

If you are having a problem, not getting enough work, etc. you really should talk to them. They will bend over backwards to make it work for you.
I stand corrected. That's good to know. I have found them to be fair also.

Good sound quality, fair line counting, pay always on time.

When the company line count is fair - it is easy nm

Transolutions, any good??

Got an offer and wondering if any good.  Have heard some good but wondering about the bad with it.  Need work and more pay than getting with Spheris and time to switch to somewhere else!


I need good and bad for Transolutions, please,
nm
Amphion - I highly recommend this professional, fair company
Best of luck!
Could anyone recommend a company that is fair and doesn't show favoritism?
thank you in advance
Transolutions platforms - good/bad
I know they have 2 platforms and wondered how hard it is to get a good line count.  Thanks!
Good or bad info on Transolutions
I am thinking of trying to get employment with the company Transolutoins out of Lake Bluff, Illinois.  Does anyone know anything good or bad about them?  Now it is saying they start out paying 11.18 to 12.36 cents per line for editing and supervisory positions.  It almost sounds too good to be true.  Does anyone work for them that could help me out?
i've heard nothing good about transolutions

Transolutions - Fantastic company!

 


I have been working for Transolutions now for 2-3 months.  After working for several online companies, I FINALLY found a place I want to stay.  This company is unbelievable!  Never have I been treated so well and felt so appreciated.  I’ll say one thing,….they have definitely got it together over there and everyone really seems to know their stuff. 


 


I know it sounds kind of corny to say, but I feel honored to be a part of this company, and that's probably because they make me feel like they are honored to have me!!   Please email me if would like more information and I would be more than happy to give you the details.  


 


Transolutions? Anyone know how good their medical insurance benefits are, costs, etc..specifically
family coverage. They say you only have to work 32 hours to be eligible so I'm curious what their benefits are like. Thanks
Webmedx versus Transolutions? Does anyone know which would be better company to go with? Thanks!
Want to find a decent company to stay with and not have to switch again.  Switched from MQ to smaller company but constantly run out of work and just want stability.  Please feel free to E-mail me.  Thanks again. 
Who's best all around company; Transolutions, Spheris, Webmedx,Transtech?
nm
AllHealth in GA - Good company, good equipment, any info about this company? (sm)

What type of work do they have?  Any op reports?  Appreciate any info. 


Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
of work.  I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
Strictly IC, good company, hard accounts, good platform.
Good pay, always on time, no direct deposit though.
Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.
:
Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
TransTech is a good company. Debbie is the owner and a good one at that! nm

Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
I know JLG and they are a good company with a good group of people

I joined JLG about 9 month ago and I am thrilled with the experience that I have had.  Although the company has been around for 20+ years, a group of good industry veterans who know how to operate fairly to both employees and clients have joined the company in the past year.  I followed my manager from another giant company. 


I have also worked on this account and it was plauged with problems from the start.  The hospital required the account to be implemented in a matter of days, there were technical issues and the hospital management staff was new and the employees were mad because transcription had been outsourced.  Personally, I won't miss this client but good luck to those that get it. 


There is plenty of work at JLG and I have already been advised on my new assignments


DSG is a good company. The sound quality is good sm
but I don't understand why they are hiring. In the a.m. was have NO work. The afternoon and evenings do have more work though.
or maybe it's really a good company. Give me a break. If a company isn't talked about sm
on here, good or bad, it's probably too small to matter and does not offer benefits or anything at all.
Good company, with good incentive SM
pay scale, decent health plan for full-timers, lower end for other benefits, well organized and dependable, good platform, good support. Very heavy ESL, medium-sized community medical centers, relatively high SR pay rate because it takes longer overall to clean it up. However--good producers who put in a good workday make quite good money here.
Meridian and Transolutions.. ESPECIALLY Transolutions
xx
good company
I have been with them for awhile now.  Every one is wonderful and helpful.  I thought it was a 65 character per gross line.  I am going to look back through my notes.  If it is not, I still make a line count that I am happy with and still improving. Pay is always on time.    Have a good day.
Good company
I am happy with them. Good accounts, very rare to run out of work, good managers, decent pay. I feel I have been fairly treated.
D*** good company, go for it
I was off of QA in 3 days, overtime yes, benefits, yes. GO FOR IT, EXCELLENT COMPANY.
GOOD IC COMPANY!
I have found Philbrick Transcription (based out of CT) to be a great company and they only offer IC status.  They have a great starting line rate too!!!  www.philbricktranscription.com
Anyone out there know about Cy Med. Is it a good company sm
How do they pay?  Do they count lines fairly?  Do they have a lot of bad ESL?  They seem like a nicer, kinder MT company even offering time and a half until you get up to speed.  Are they liars who say anything to get you to sign on?  Can you expect them to be true to their word?  Thanks any and all imput!  What a crazy world.  I am going wild trying to find a nice MT company.
Good Company
Wonderful group of people to work with. Been there since August, with a few problems at home, and they have been great. Very high standards for quality.
Good company. sm

One downside is occasionally running low on work, but I have plenty of backups, so I never run out.  Platform gets quirky sometimes, but it doesn't stop me from producing and earning bonuses.  Great people.  Come on over. 


I don't consider them a good company. I

took their test to work for them and I have more than 18 years of experience and they sent me a really insulting letter telling me to apply again in six months when I had more experience.


The audio was horrible and I had no way of slowing the dictation down. 


I asked about what errors I had made and of course they told me to call.  I was not going to do that if they could not even give me an estimate of my mistakes which they could easily have done.  I was not about to play phone tag when I needed to work badly and had to wait till I was finished for the day to take the stupid test.

When you don't have the right equipment, just how are you supposed to take a test.  I know that I got the answers to the written part right and I did the best I could with the dictation which I say was awful, but to insult me like that having 18 years of experience and sending that shoddy letter just infuriated me.  I will never try again, I'll sure bet.


Glad the rest of you got past the front door and liked it.  I thought I sure would have.  Oh, well.  I


 


MDI is a good company
I've been there about 5 months now, and I really like it. Pay is good and always on time - either employee or IC status. Good benefits but family insurance is expensive. Flexible as far as schedule and if you have doctor appointments or whatever. Never had any problem with that. Management has always been more than fair about any issues that I've had. The platform I work on is word based, but they have several different platforms - just depends where they need help and what you're needs are. Work was a little slow in the summer, but there's been plenty lately. I think every company has a slow time in the summer, or at least that's been my experience. I've been with other nationals, and so far, MDI is by far the best one I've worked for. Very happy there.
TT is a good company.
that are a piece of cake.  Some, I hear, are not.  Some of the ESLs in back posts are said to be very hard to understand.
Good company

No. Not a good company
A lot of MTs left this company for a lot of reasons, none good. I liked them at first, but that did not last.
They seem to be a good company (SM)
Not a lot of bad about them on the web.  I interviewed and tested for them, but the recruiter was off line and had computer troubles, never recontacted me, so I went with another company.  It would be a good choice, I think.  They offer a complete surgical position.  At one time, there was a $2,000 sign-on bonus paid out $500 every 3 months.  Might be worth a try, still.  Good luck.
GOOD COMPANY?????
In your own opinion, which company would be the BEST?  I am in desparate need of getting a new job (MAJOR problems with current company).  Don't want to get screwed around, pay decent and decent dictators.  Thanks everyone!!!
RE: Good Company
Give Transcend a try.
GOOD COMPANY
I would suggest trying Transtech.  They are very fair, pay on time, and offer good benefits.  I have been with them for about 6 months and I am very happy.
Good/bad company - sm
Well, not paying on time, paying incorrectly, doing the bait and switch after hiring, terrible platform where you cannot use your Expander and/or no spell checker, wicked QA that picks on you for the least little thing that has no bearing on the record itself, overbearing management, constantly emailing with threats or inconsistent personalities, horrible sound quality and/or horrible dictators that NO ONE can do and make money at, awful tech support, and I'm sure the list goes on and on.....
Good company

I have been working for them a little over a year and have been very happy.  The program is great; it's very easy to use.  Sound quality has been very good.  I was assigned one account when I first started that had very poor sound quality.  I'm not sure if the problem was at their end or mine, but I asked if I could switch accounts and they had no problem with that.


Work is plentiful.  The only time I have run out is around the holidays, but it doesn't last for long, and I think you'll find that's the case with most companies.


There have been many negative postings about them, but I honestly have been quite happy with them.  I think some people are just chronic complainers!  You're always going to find things you don't like no matter where you work.  You just have to decide if the good outweighs the bad.


 


Really sad because at first they were a very good company
  Really disappointed because I have always worked hard for them, had 99% or better QA reviews, and never missed my line counts until now.
good company
This is a good company. They have a lot of benefits and they pay very well.
What does that mean. Is it a good company or not.
