no work with sten-tel

In Reply to: Are you referring to Sten tel? - ?

I had the same experience with Sten-Tel. The bank was always empty. I told them I do their stuff prn and got another job. Haven't been back since. Now my job is going to whoever will do it cheaper than me, and I hate to think of going back to Sten-Tel. They're pay was like 9 cents for every 11 words and it sucked. I could flip burgers for more than that. Not to mention they was verbatum. Doc said, patient is no longer oranges. I typed, The patient is no longer eating oranges. They marked it wrong and told me to just type what is said. Remember, some foods can interact with drugs. I'd be real proud to be on staff with a coompany that puts out sentences like that!

Anyone work for Sten-Tel?
Would appreciate any info. 
I work for Sten-Tel
Unlike most MTSOs, everyone is very professional and kind. There is plenty of work. The pay is average and they only hire IC status. The platform is Word-based and very easy to use. I love working for them. The only thing I don't like is the fact that they mail paychecks. Other than this, it's great.
I work for Sten Tel in MA and have
A pay schedule was recently distributed to all MTs and QA people that is the same. We are paid every two weeks. What are you talking about?
I currently work for Sten Tel in
I also received an IC contract from another company that says the same thing. You are an IC. They don't guarantee you any work. If there is no work, no pay. This is standard for an IC. I QA for them and have had very little work since I started. No work, no pay.

As far as the 'no liability' portion, I must have overlooked that. Why would you speak to an attorney and then come here asking for opinions. What did your attorney tell you? Seems like you would listen to him/her.
I work for Sten-Tel
There pay rate sucks.

I am a new MT and I currently make 3.0 cents per line. After I receive my CMT after 5 years I can go up to 4.0 cents per line. This sucks.

Otherwise, they are a good company and they usually have plenty of work. However, try and negotiate a higher pay rate!!
anyone work for Sten-Tel
and not getting paid? Email me.
Does anyone work for Sten-Tel in
Mass as an Editor or QA?  Can you give me any information regarding the position?  How is the work flow?  Is there plenty of work?  Do they pay on time?  Are they flexible?  TIA for all info.

I work for Sten-Tel
I have never had a problem with receiving my check on time. I have already received this month's paycheck. Maybe there is something up with your local post office...you know how they can be.
Anyone work for Sten-Tel?

Could not find any recent posts about Sten-Tel. Before I accept the job offer I would like to hear from anyone who might be working for this company. Thanks for any information!



Anybody work for Sten-Tel and actually got off of QA?
I have worked with them before and quit because of the QA.  Well I just recently started back about 2 months ago b/c I was desperate and hoping maybe they would be different but it is the same old crap.  Their QA is ridiculous.  They will keep you and keep you on QA forever.  I guess I need to start looking for a different company.  Has anyone worked with them and actually got approved and taken off of QA?  If so, how long did it take you?  The other company I work for had me off QA in 2 days...so I know that it is not my work quality that is keeping me on QA.
Anyone else at Sten-Tel having problems getting more work?

I've sent in several requests for more work, and I just am not getting the lines I need.  I love the company but I have bills to pay.  Problem is, I'm a newbie (less than 2 years, anyhow).  So I was just wondering if anyone else is running into this, or if you have advice on how to get around it?


TIA


 


Sten-Tel...any QAs here work there? If so, how is it? I'd be happy to hear from ya:D nm

Anyone work for Sten-Tel doing the VR work?

The ad says most of the work is editing, obviously, and 20% transcribing.  I could use a break on my hands!!!!  It also says 9 cents a line.  And she makes a comment about doubling your production.  Well 9 cents a line and you only have to listen to the dictation and edit and then occasionally transcribe, that sounds great.


Just wondering if anyone works for them currently doing this.  What is your experience with this?


sten tel
I love working on the Sten Tel platform.  Very user friendly, a good Work based platform.  I pull off my jobs and put them in a folder and work from that folder.  A bonus is if I lose Internet connection, I can continue to work out of my folder and just u/l when get Internet back. 
Sten-Tel
I have worked for them for about 6 months now....I do mostly editing with voice recognition...I enjoy it very much, and I have found the company to be extremely flexible and very nice!

I've never heard of sten-tel.  is it a stenography company?
sten-tel
As far as I know, tranny is slang for transvestite... What in the world could that mean?? Good luck.
Sten-tel
I start training with them next week, so I am afraid I can't be much help info wise, but if you would like I would be happy to tell you how it goes. I, personally, have only heard positive things about this company. In my opinion, if the pay is what you are looking for and you want an IC position, then go for it.

Sten-Tel
Any one have feedback on this company?  I was hired for a QA/editor position but have heard nothing since.....????
Sten-Tel

I work for Sten-Tel, and they are THE nicest people.  This is the second time I have worked for them, so I am on a different account than the last time, but I really like working there.


 


Sten-Tel
There is no work at Sten-Tel right now for the past 2 to 3 days!!

She was more than ignorant with her carelessness.

Sten-Tel

Sten-Tel
If you go to www.mtjobs.com Sten-tel has 2 ads on there, one for MT one for editor. Hope that helps.
Which Sten-Tel
Can you tell me which Sten-Tel you work for? In doing a search I find a lot of companies with the Sten-Tel name. Also, are you an IC or an employee. Thank you
Sten-tel does
if you go to www.mtjobs.com and look, Sten-tel is hiring MTs and editors. They are all IC positions.
Sten-Tel
I worked for Sten-Tel for a short time doing QA work PT. I didn't have much experience with the company but what I did have was good. The program was good. The people were great. There always seemed to be tons of work. The pay for QA was a little low compared to others but no complaints about the company. Like I said though, I just worked part time for a while.
Sten-Tel? sm
I got an offer from Sten-Tel and the pay seems pretty good but I've heard some not-so-great things. Any recent info on their MA office?
Sten-Tel
They are not a very high paying company, even with experienced transcriptionists.
SteN-Tel..... sorry!!
I can't believe I misspelled that?!?!?!  LOL

Hi.  Has anyone worked for sten-tel?  if so, what platform do they use?  How are they to work for?  Are you able to have flexibility with your schedule?  is the pay decent?


Any help would be very much appreciated


sten-tel
I'm confused.  Why is there a company called sten-tel with a website?
sten-tel
the one I am looking into is in MA also. how long ago did you work for them? They told me I could keep a total of the line count myself in the tools box. Do you have to type on various platforms?
I appreciate your help.
sten-tel
I worked for them about two years ago, for about three weeks time. I used their platform, but only for downloading and uploading files. I used Word to type my reports. Yes, I do remember being able to *view* a total of my line count, but they did the counting, not me. I did not have to type into their platform at that time, but as the poster below suggested, *who I don't think is too reliable*, they may have accounts where you do use a different platform to type into. It all depends on the account I suppose. I just hope the male coordinator I had is no longer there. He used IM to keep track of me and even when I was not scheduled to be working, he would ask me why I was not working. He was awful. When I told him I no longer wanted to work for him because he really did not seem to have a handle on the coordinating part of his job, he sent me *copies* of my work stating that words were missing, etc. and that my work was subquality. I don't know why he did not realize that I had copies of my own work that proved that I had no missing words. I threatened to report him to management and he left me alone after that. mind you, I had already quit by that time. I cannot remember his name. Just be careful, okay? I had a bad experience with them, so I am not completely objective, but I would not completely trust them, either. JMO. good luck.
sten-tel

this doesn't sound good.  I finally got a hold of other posts on them.  Do you think you have to be careful when working as a IC as far as getting paid on time?  Do you mind me asking who you work for?  I get many hopeful prospects in then in the end it does not look good.  I hate to jump from the fire to the frying pan.


Thank you for your help. 


sten-tel

anyone have anything good to say about sten-tel.  I saw some postings on here not too good but just wondering if anyone has had a good experience with them. 


Sten-Tel, in MA
I was wondering if anybody has any info on them?  I am supposed to start working with them and just want to opinions/experiences.  Also, I know their pay is low, but do you still make a decent amount of money?
Sten-tel

I have worked for them for about a year also.  Checks always on time, pleasant people and no one bugs me.  You would have to see what they offer you and that would depend on your experience and how you test.  They will hire MTs with less than a year and they also offer you work in other specialties if you need more work.  I work when I feel like it:)


There are other companies with better benefits and platforms but this is a decent company that pays on time, and if you need flexibility you will certainly find that with them.


sten-tel
Is sten-tel a franchise like a mcdonalds?  ?  I thought I saw this somewhere on this site but cannot find it now.  So if you get hired for them, who actually are you working for?
R&B Sten-Tel
Anyone have any experience with this company?
Sten-Tel
I have worked for Sten-Tel for almost a year. I have never not received my pay check on time and have never had it be incorrect. I am on 3 accounts and NEVER run out of work unless it's some sort of holiday and is slow for a day or a half a day. Everyone has been nothing but professional to me, and my experience has been good. Some people hear one person say something negative about a company and assume there's nothing good there. I know a lot of happy people at Sten-Tel. Good luck in your decision. Becky
Sten-Tel
Please email me if you have any info on Sten-Tel.  Appreciate it! Considering position.
Sten-Tel
I work for them currently,they pay on time and they are pleasant to deal with. They have been very flexible with work schedules.
Sten-Tel QA
Is Sten-Tel understanding with MT scheduling needs? I am so unhappy where I am now and I want out, but I cannot work set shifts until my youngest child is a bit older and doesn't need me so much for homework help ect . . .
