Ruling against DeVenture

Interesting reading here for anyone thinking about applying with DVHP.


Drop DeVenture a line!
It's summer and it's BUSY!  I've been starting an hour early and ending an hour later and it's kinda pissin' me off now---it's the time of year one wants to be outside!  I know they're lookin' for help and I've got nuthin' but good things to say about them.  I'm not a boss or nuthin', just a lowly typist, but I do like the work and especially my boss lady (workflow manager, whatever the heck she's called!).  Give it a shot.  The main site is www.deventure.biz if your interested.
DeVenture & Human Rights
You may want to check out the Bangor Daily News online State page for August 7 of this week. President, Michael Deville was found liable for employee discrimination. Sounds like a great place to work. In addition, that manager you are speaking of most likely has no backbone when it comes to standing up when it's require of her.

NOT GOOD!!!


Etransplus Does
Worked for them for over 5 years and then they decide to cut our pay to according to how many lines we type, example 6,000 lines makes 6 cents, since I had always been part-time with them, that is what I typed, so they expected me to go down from 9 cents to 6 cents immediately no warning, how is that for fair, or rather unscrupulous!!!!
etransplus
You get 2 pages of account specifics, 2 sheets of do not use abbreviations, and a few samples, that's it. The accounts are great, they only require 900 lines per day to be in the pool for drawings and the bonuses, and you can set your hours. I went through 3 nationals before them and have been with them since August and I am very pleased. Plenty of work, good accounts, rarely rarely ESLs, and a good platform to work on. Plus if you get 10,000 lines per pay period, they pay half of your insurance.
ETransPlus
They are out of TN and growing steadily.  In my 20 years, I would have to say the accounts I'm on are the best I've seen anywhere.  The platform is very fast, quick demo page.  It basically looks like a version of Word.  I have maybe only 3 ESLs.   The benefits are good, tiered pay depending on lines, shift differential, etc.  If you meet your goals, work your shift, etc., at the end of the year they pay a bonus based on their profit.  There are several tiers of health, dental, life, disability insurance depending on what you need.  If you make 10,000 lines per pay period, they pay half.  The vacation days are a little limited, 9 per year, but I didn't have any before so I am not complaining.  They pay half your internet costs as well.  No, we don't get referral bonuses. :)
EtransPlus

I believe you have to do 3000 a week for part time.


ETransPlus
Are there any other eTransPlus people on here? If so, have you had difficulty getting your insurance and bonus pay?  I have been with them 10 months now and according to their paperwork, your insurance starts once you reach 10,000 lines per pay period, which was 9 months ago.  I have emailed everybody and no answer.   They promised a hiring bonus too, still nothing.  Getting sick and tired of companies who offer all this and then go into hiding when you ask questions.  What's with hiring the teeny-bopper supervisors????  Anybody else have problems with getting anything out of these people?
eTransPlus does not

EtransPlus
I work evenings and that's 90% of what I get.
etransplus

Has anyone ever worked for this company?  I am considering employment with them, and was wondering if it would be worthwhile.  Any advice would be helpful.  Thanks!


E-MTS or eTransPlus
Can anyone recommend which company they would go with between E-MTS or eTransPlus?  I am currently being offered positions by both and want to make a good decision.  If anyone is or has been employed with either, please post a comment.  Thanks!
etransplus
I have worked for both and I would definitely recommend etransplus.  Did not stay at emts long enough to tell you one way or another what to do with them, but I am more than happy at etransplus.
I was able to use it with eTransPlus - nm

Etransplus and communication
I started with them about 2 weeks ago.  When I started I got a 60 second tour on how to use the system. I received 3 samples of work and no account information. I had to BEG to get the account specifics and that took about another week.  Nobody answers emails, including the lead on the account.  The account I was given is great and the system easy to use, but what's with the lack of communication?  I have another interview today that was to be for a part-time job but I may take another one full time just because of the communication.
Yes, I was talking etransplus
Never heard of etranz and glad I never have!
Are you the eTransPlus Amanda?
What happened?
Shorthand 9/eTransPlus
If anyone is currently working for eTransPlus using ShortHand 9, could you please email me? I am getting extremely frustrated with the program and would appreciate being able to talk to someone who is currently using it. Thanks so much!
Wouldn't happen to be eTransPlus would it?

If so, at least they have communicated with you.  I have not heard a thing!  But when work is out of turn around time, everybody is e-mailing


Can one make money at etransplus?

Hi,


I am pleased with the benefit package and the line rate for insurance, but I was astounded by style they prefer.  It is just so much.  Can one make money there? 


I work for eTransPlus, hospital accounts, and QA is great - nm

Medware
Anyone with information on Medware.  Would appreciate any input.  Thank you in advance.
Medware
This was the worst of the worst for me. I went back to working for a hospital (at home) after a month with them!
Medware

Can anyone tell me how long it took to get hired with this company?  I spoke with a recruiter last week, who acted like everything was all set and haven't heard from him since.  I did send himi an e-mail, but got no reply.  I didn't want to call and be a pester either, but I would like to know something.  I was just curious if this length of time was normal or not....Thanks


MedWare
Well, on the other side of the coin there is the fact that they have an easy-to-use platform, you get feedback/corrections for every report you send into QA, they offer good medical and dental benefits that are affordable, there are 7 paid holidays and at least 10 vacation days per year given, my supervisor is approachable and allows flexibility within reason, and, in my experience at least, we do not run out of work frequently.

The fact that they have a subsidiary in India does not bother me. Nowdays, it is a fact of life in this, and many other businesss.

I've been very happy in my years with Medware and have no plans to leave.

Like I said... I know not everyone agrees with my views on this, but I did want you to have another opinion from the opposite side.

Medware
Medware has gone through a lot of changes recently and not all of them good. The mentality is based on quantity, not quality. If you want to push through a lot of charts for low pay and no raises, then Medware is for you.

Only a couple of positives: They do not deduct for errors, pay is made on time, vacation pay, but you have to work 3 holidays a year. Platform is easy to use. Flexibility in scheduling is a huge plus.
MedWare
I have been happy there and am in my 3rd year of employment. In my personal experience I can say that I do not have accounts that are "picked over" due to outsourcing. Mine are great, as is my supervisor.
Medware

What's the general consensus with regards to Medware?  Thanks in advance.


medware
It doesn't make any sense. I passed it but they keep telling me I only scored an 82. HOw can you score an 82 when all your answers are right??
Medware
I had been with another company for nearly six years when I switched to Medware.  I love Medware! They're like any other company wherein benefits are available, but you are required to work 40 hours a week and produce your required line count.  Isn't that just the same as other companies?  QAs are quarterly, the pay is fair, and I have had great supervisors...just the best!!! I think some of the comments I have seen about Medware are harsh.  I've worked for the worst and feel Medware is one of the very best!!!
Medware
I absolutely loved working for Medware.  I worked for them for about 6 months.  I quit, as I was moonlighting and working a fulltime job.  It became too much.  I would go back there in a heartbeat though!
Medware
I currently work for Medware and love it.  The people are all great and I always have work.
Go with Medware! SM
GREAT benefits, GREAT team leaders, GREAT atmosphere just to name a few things. I worked BRIEFLY for JLG and was not very happy with them at all. The people were GREAT but the platform sucked. Also, I was not able to get much flexibility in scheduling. I have been with Medware for a year and a half now and absolutely LOVE my job and actually ENJOY coming to work! HTH!
MEDWARE INC

Do yourself a favor and do not work for Medware INC. 'Where there is smoke, there is fire.'
Regarding Medware
Someone who is disgruntled and who does not care to state WHY not to work at Medware.  I work at Medware (on the Merit side...used to work on the Dictaphone side as a shift leader and delta) and I am VERY happy here, and have been for over 3 years now.  It is still a great company to work for.  Yes, there are a LOT of changes that have gone on over the past 1-1/2 years, but so far, have all been positive, so unless you care to elaborate, "I" love Medware and hope to retire here.  As with any any job, there is ALWAYS going to be something that someone is not happy with.  I think if you talk with the management personally (and respectfully) you might agree.  JMO!!
Medware ---so far, so good --
Startup is quick. Supportive trainers. Like their platform. MT-friendly software.
Medware or Spheris
Medware wasn't a bad company and the benefits were good. The only complaint I had is they told me I would get a certain account, but when I started I ended up with 3 others, not including the one they told me I would get. I was started on all 3 at the same time and yes it got confusing. I worked for Edix, now Spheris, and the schedules were very very rigid there.
Can anyone tell me what Medware insurance
rates are for 2 people (me & hubby)?
Thanks!
Feedback about Medware?

Okay, gang, here is one more.  I see that they are listed as the 2005 and 2002 AAMT Employer of the Year, and I am scheduled to test with them tomorrow. 


Any feedback, good or bad, on Medware?


Medware has benefits???
The only benefit I heard of was their paying half of self-employment taxes. They said they do not offer full-time employment; they offer statutory employment which means they offer one benefit--the full-time employment tax half-payment. Where do I find out about the medical, dental, etc. you mentioned?

Do you find BayScribe easy to use and to learn?

About how many lines per hour is your average? How many on a good day? I'm just wondering about what productivity people are REALLY having in the company, as opposed to what a recruiter might tell me.
Information on Medware

 


Thinking about working for them.  Any input.  Thanks.


Medware and Meridian?
Anyone know anything about these companies.  I'm currently working but really need to get at least a part-time job as our work is extremely slow and I get the feeling that they are losing the account that I currently work on.  Any info is appreciated.  Thanks. 
I suggest trying Medware

I'm starting with them 7/1, but I can tell you the hiring process was one of the best I've experienced. The recruiter was super friendly. Once I applied, they got back with me within a few days.  Also, the testing process was very reasonable. Great benefits from what I've read (on here) and they don't change your accounts frequently. Take care and good luck!


I too worked for medware
a few years back and absolutely loved it!  I had to quit do to personal reason.  Great bunch of people!

Anyone with TransTech

How long does it take you to get your 1100 lines, on average.  Also, how strict are they with you about sticking 100% to your hours.


 


TIA


TransTech
No work lately.

I have been with Transtech for a little over 1-1/2 years and it works great for me.
