eTransPlus plays for spaces. I am currently employed there.

Aphion does not - that is why I rejected

What a rip off.!

Their ad says they pay for a 65-keystroke line, sm - Job-Seeking MT

which would seem to me to imply that they pay for spaces. Guess I must have interpreted that wrong. Seems that companies find more and more ways to chip away at our wages. :(

Amphion - on some does

[ In Reply To ..]
and on some does not.

On radiology it doesn't matter, you're paid 60c per report.

On one platform you are paid for spaces.

On the other, 99% VR, you are not paid per spaces as is, according to them, industry standard.

mt2, curious about Amphion - how much work can be done in an 8-hour day? sounds like if radiology reports are 60 cents each & you do 40 reports, that's only $24 in a day? which breaks down to $4 per hour. I'm wondering what is a realistic # of reports that can be done in an 8-hour day - trying to see how much the pay would be for radiology. Thanks

GRR wish I knew that before dealing with Triton! - Anon

I got suckered in by the insurance benefits and PTO, which is NOT paid hourly and accumulated per year, like so many hours a year. It is paid per production and accumulated the same way. I basically get 4 hours of PTO per 2 months...it is a rip off! Seeing it more and more on here too. DARN IT

Just curious, I'm trying to decide between a few companies and I totally forgot to ask the interviewer.  I think the whole VBC thing is criminal.  It's bad enough not being paid for all of the research, demographics and CCs we do, but to not pay for characters that we actually type just because they don't print out in black and white is OUTRAGEOUS!!!  ...
