That company has gone downhill for years. Lost multiple accounts, cut ALL benefits, lousy pay, no tech support whatsoever and snotty rude managers/supervisors. There is basically ONE account left, a huge teaching hospital. Tons of rules, which change daily. I wouldn't waste my time. I wasted the last few years there.

Currently at TT - sm

but in the process of looking for a new job, preferably something not MT related. I've been at TT for 5 years. Things were amazing for the first 2 years, and I considered them to be the best company out there. But since VR has come along, they have gone downhill just like all the other places. It's so hard to make money at TT. Their VR is awful. They have waves of high work load and then you find yourself running out of work every other day for weeks or months. Communication has gone downhill also. Good luck with your decision!

I like VR because it is easier than straight typing, but I dislike the cut in pay.

My take on DR - lilgexMT

[ In Reply To ..]
I was with DR for about a period of 3 months. The recruiter, Danielle, was great; the trainer, Daneele, was great as well; however, all communication went downhill FAST!!! I had a difficult time getting in touch with my TM...actually I think she left and we were never told about it.

I was promised consistent work with OT offered just about every other day and, as luck would have it, I barely pulled in 15-20 hours a week. Then, when I had asked about being put on a secondary account...I got NOTHING...just, hold on, work will pick up.

It is nice that they supply you with all of the equipment you need to do your job, but I found that their Speech Rec engine didn't "learn" as it went along and A TON of editing had to go into those reports.

If the communication were better, the "abundance of work promised" available, and a better SR platform...I may not have left.

Best of luck to you!!!

Have offers from both but have read pros and cons about each MTSO on these boards. Has anyone worked for both and can compare the two, or does anyone have current experience at either?

I'm going to apply with this company and would like to know how those of you who have been there a while like the company. Total honesty please. How often do you run out? Do they communicate well?

Need info on Freedom Type, Keystrokes or Diskriter. I live in Okla and worked for a local service until recently. They downsized and cut the transcription dept. I now have a job with Medquist but can't get any work through them. Like most, I need a paycheck, not just a job title. I'm looking for a good company to work for who is honest and provides a work load that is not constantly running out. I've seen some good reviews on these 3 companies but any current info or opinion ...
