Yeah, both.. Really rough accounts but exceptionally nice people.

In Reply to: Diskriter ads look good but there sure are a ton of - them. Why the turnover, or is it new clients? nm

It's a shame but some of the accounts were really high ESL. I did like the people though and would have stayed if the accounts were different.

Nice people but low work, and yes I have multiple accounts!! nm

Very nice people, nice place to work. nm

Yes, nice QA (and nice people in general), but very little work right now. nm
nm
YEAH for you! Nice to hear a happy ending.
I thought of you today. You posted once a fave website with a alphabetical Genus species list. I used it today as it is saved in my faves and it is only listed as HAYSEED! I wondered how you were...

Glad to hear!
That was exceptionally rude and uncalled for!
But probably true!  Though from the work I've seen from MTs left at the Evil Q, maybe not!  That's why there are still folks left in the cult, isn't it?  No one else will have you.  Sad... 
Yeah, the accounts keep close tabs SM

on who is typing their work at my company and I know for a fact they have demanded that certain people not be allowed to type their work, so I know that does happen.  It also used to happen in the hospital I worked.


As much as I feel for you having a rough time, in business (and this is a business) there is really not much room for error here and these companies can't keep people who continually make errors - otherwise the account goes bye-bye and the company has to replace it with another account, not easy to do these days.


Yeah if I remember right, they are one of the low-paying Escription accounts out there, maybe 1.5-2
cpl or something ridiculous. Not actually livable US rates...
Yeah. Unfortunately, I think they hired too many people.

And what's the deal with them getting freaked out if there's a little bit of work on the system?  They like it down to NOTHING all the time and I don't think a LITTLE backlog hurts.  I mean not even out of turnaround time or anything and they get freaked out or freak out over weekends when from past experience they should see the work ALWAYS gets cleaned out on the weekends.


I dunno....I'm used to doing some of my own accounts with hospitals and they have so much more of a backlog than MDI and they don't freak out over a little backlog.


Yeah Kerry. . . I have had other people tell
me to hold off on the equipment and that does sound like a good idea until I find someone to work for. Do all 3 of these companies do the deposit thing or just Webmedx? What do you for your Self Employment Tax? I think that different people have both good and bad experiences with different companies. . .if one works for you it does and it doesn't, it doesn't.
For nice people.....:)
Hey, I'm nice. Can I post?

Hmmm.....what made me happy today? Bf sent flowers; that did it! LOL

Thanks for starting this post, nice to see a good one once in awhile. :)
Nice people ????
I worked at FN for a year and found the people there (with the exception of a couple) to be very difficult and not really caring about their workers whatsoever. I got tired of the ESLs, the people there, and running out of work...so I found another job. I suggest you do the same...you'll be much happier!

Very nice people
I couldn't disagree more with Olive Oyl.  I've worked there almost a year myself, and I find everyone to be very nice.  I don't get the feeling at all that they do not care about my well being!
Really nice people
I have worked there in the past, and the administrative staff/owner are reallyk nice, understandable, and easy to work with.  I would recommend them.
Nice People

From what I remember this Tracey had a conflict with the operating system on her laptop and there were problems with initial installation but her overall experience with GIS ended up pretty good.  I think she had to leave because she could not afford to continue her training as she had just graduated MT school.  The people at GIS are awesome to work for.  I have been there a little more than 2 years and I love it.  There are no bipolar supervisors.  I think I know who made that post and she was given a one in a lifetime opportunity to slide into management and she failed miserably.  Don't know why she blames it on GIS.


Really nice people there,
but it is the only company I have ever quit on the spot with no notice.  They had me completely at my wits' end.  They didn't have enough work on the accounts they gave me so they kept switching me around - I think I had 4 different accounts in about a week and a half.   Because there was no training pay, I couldn't keep putting in all that time learning new stuff.  I wouldn't have been able to pay my bills.  The people there are really nice though.  
Very nice people....sm
I did general transcription for them briefly, I loved it, the sound quality was awesome!!!!!!!, but I could not handle it with working my full time employee position.  It was just too much for me. They paid me on time, but for general transcription, the pay for general transcription may be low for some, but I was only doing this for extra money part time....
This is too bad! Why would such nice people
go through this? Every Christmas they would have a party for us, and they would never forget us! I left for personal reasons, just to take some time off and be with my children. I hoped to go back b/c I thought they were so family oriented. I hope that things turn around for everyone there.
Nice to see people who like where they
work and what they do.  Question for all you TTers out there.  I looked at their web site and they say they want 5 years of experience.  Do you know if they'll consider people with 2 years?  thanks for your input.
yeah, they are watching and people take the bait

For nice people only no bashers

This is a peaceful message.


Post here only if you have something nice to say.


Ugly messages not allowed!



Worked for them, nice people, low pay. nm
nm
Nice people, but I was switched from
account to account because they ran out work. I also agree with Regina about the non-stop e-mails, etc.--too much distraction during the work day. They pay on time as agreed, but not too much. I'd say keep looking.
Nice people, but the pay scale is quite
complicated and very low. You can only get the top line rate if you're a CMT and trained on multiple accounts. They do send you a computer, but they don't charge for it. The most telling thing is that my former supervisor left shortly after I did. I say keep looking.
Be nice, people - it's Friday

Nice people to work for.
Pay is higher than other MTSO.  QA is very helpful and always encouraging.  I never heard anything negative, even when I did make a mistake.  The only reason I left is because I was offered a local account with a surgery center.  I would go back in a heartbeat if I needed work. 
Nice people at Amphion, but there
were workflow issues and the pay is rather low. I gave it half a year, but I had to move on. There was also an issue with having to fill in demographics, which burned a lot of time.
yeh, forget it if the people are nice.

Yes, Precyse provides everything, very nice people there.

I like Phoenix, very nice people there sm
If you are okay with being IC, give them a try.
What did you want to know? Nice bunch of people. nm
nm
I am one of those nice helpful people (sm)

who work there but am just a worker bee...ain't management and don't ever wanna be management.  I'd love to know what the lie was, just 'cause curiosity killed the Hayseed 


 


Nice people at Spheris
You are so right; however, with horrible unitelligible dictators and lousy sound quality, I could not make a living there. Also, too many inconsistencies and subjective QA-ing. When the dictator says duh x-ray, and you type the and get counted off because QA thnks it should be an or ptient's x-ray that gets under one's skin in a hurry.
They are nice. If you do something wrong, they tell you. That is their job, isn't? You people.
nm
Nice people but be aware....sm
they do not pay for spaces, even if they tell you they do.  You need to definitely get this is writing (the spaces part).  You will find your check short about 20% and you won't get the money either.  Bad experience for me.  Most people probably don't check their line counts.  Maybe this has changed but I know others had this problem too (old posts here).  Good luck.
Nice people, pay on the low side
I worked for them about 3 years ago. The managers were all very nice. They have an odd payscale which is based on your expereince, production and how much work your send to QA. And I thought the pay was a little low.

Hope I helped.
Trish
They are not nice people to deal with and
only a few of the chosen can get away with even making suggestions. The rest of us are called unhappy and just told to find another job. This starts at the top and falls all the way down the ladder in management. No one cares about you, you are just a number and you are not as important to them as the Indians. Their efforts to try to retain good MTs is just a facade, there is no truth to it. They would rather we all just left.
Great for some maybe....but they are nice people...nm
xxxxx
The Amphion people are nice but
I got laid off after months of no work. This was back in January, I think. Because of the lack of work, I kept bouncing back and forth from different accounts, had to use EditScript (ASR) and couldn't make my lines. They did me a favor by laying me off. It was not a good fit for me and I went back to my old job, making 9 cpl; however, that job is transitioning to EditScript as of June 1st. Just can't win, I guess.
AMEN! Very nice people and they sm
WILL work with you, but they do tell you anything to get you into something then you find out it is a bunch of bull.

Nice doesn't cut a paycheck!
Yeah, but the sound quality is horrible on all accounts. Good luck with that!

Does JLG have nice accounts to work on and is their platform user friendly.
:
Pay always on time, platform is easy, they've always been nice to me, do have several accounts to
avoid running out of work.  I do MT and QA.
Yeah, I would hate to see those people in a comedy club.
Some people have no sense of humor. It's alright, though, more jokes for us, ay? :)
Nice people, but they need a major upgrade.
:(
totally agree - nice people though -nm
nm
Very happy with PS. Extremely nice people. sm
Their platform is fully over internet. It has a few bugs, but they are working these out all the time. These are just plain nice people running that place. I really have enjoyed them and am so happy to have shed the stress of the uncertainty with MedQuist. Proscript does not offshore, either.

The big thing I like about Proscript is that they all work together pleasantly. With MQ, we are left out there alone without the tools to do a good job. With Proscript I actually feel I am part of an organization that is genuinely dedicated to doing a good job - and provides the tools and the feedback to do that. I like the QA people, too. They provide good feedback done in a diplomatic way - and they know we are all just human, which helps.
I worked for them for a few weeks. Very nice people (sm)
I just could not make their minimum and found platform to be cumbersome - but it may have just been me.
Thank you! that was really kind of you. didn't know nice people were still around, LOL. sm
we all know as with everything, time and circumstances change. sorry to hear your outcomes. i too hope TT will hold up to its end of the bargain as they have something great going on now and we need companies like this.
I do. Very nice people. I have plenty of work sm
Pay is on time. Nobody bothers me. I have a great account and wonderful software that is Word based,but they have several accounts a couple of different platforms, so not sure what the others are like.
I had the same problem. Nice people and benefits,
NM
Just because people are super nice, doesn't SM
mean the company is so great. Everyone at Spheris is real nice too, but don't think you would like working there.
