CTL positions being eliminated? - Anon


Posted: Nov 05, 2009

Heard a rumor that the CTL positions are being eliminated around the 15th.   Perhaps this is a question you should ask your CCMs/area directors?   Not sure if it is true but when asked specifically, it was not denied but there is something brewing around the 15th.  

Seems like all CTLs will be moved to the MME positions and the CCMs will assume the CTL duties.  Sounds like another shake up at the Q which always happens around the holidays.  Wonder if the CCMs will have to take a pay cut to the current CTL payscale and do production?

This may be a rumor but never hurts to ask.

I wouldn't doubt it. Seems like a redundant position anyway. - nm

CTL position - Spam

I bet it's true! My formerly invisible, unavailable CCM has actually been e-mailing us in the past week. I wondered why suddenly she is asking us for things that we used to give to the CTL. What good is the CTL anyway? She has to forward or ask the CCM everything. She/he has no power or authority of their own, at least mine doesn't.

Rather talk to CTL - oops

May be redundant but I would rather talk to a CTL than CCM. CCM has no idea what it's like being an MT/ME. They have no idea how crazy some of the demands are. At least the CTL understands. I don't feel like I am hitting my head against a wall when I communicate w/ the CCM. So the rumor is probably true. They found out it made our job a little more tolerable so they are doing away with the position. How about doing away with some of the propaganda writers on MQCentral?

I love my CTL. She is awesome, but she has no authority. She is a person we are supposed to vent to because the higher ups don't want to hear it. I do not like my CCM. She has no clue.

Ya, I meant "when I communicate w/ the CTL." I'm not tired, just get a little worked up. Job performance??? Is that like performance management?
Yep! Performance management - Whoopie

We have all been warned that the job performance review started up again which means we cannot leave much blanks being sent to QA or we will get a warning, but we are now on different accounts due to NO JOBS AVAILABLE.

Plus, we have to get our hours in or it will hurt against us, but how can we if we run out of work?

AND we have to have 98%, but how can we if we are typing different accounts because of NO JOBS AVAILABLE. Cannot win at all with this company.

WHAT REALLY, REALLY SUCKS AND WHAT IS FISHY? We had so much work the last few months and now we have NO JOBS AVAILABLE. So we are told we will be typing different accounts and now we are being performance managed? Are you kidding me?

My group was just notified about job performance - Whoopie

[ In Reply To ..]
Received an email stating we will be having job performance again. The last one was in June. I think something is really, really brewing than just CTL's and CCM's. Also, we were swamped with work for the last 6 months. We have overtime, work more hours, etc. and now, NO JOBS AVAILABLE. Because work volume low, we are not helping out other accounts. Something is up alright.

oops! - Whoopie

[ In Reply To ..]
Meant to say we are NOW helping and did not mean to say NOT. I am tired.

Also, in the email for job performance, it also stated since We have not been having job performance since the REORGANIZATION IN OCTOBER. What reorganization in October? Oh well. More changes again and again.

job performance - sm

I never knew we were ever not in job performance management. As for the reorganization, I think all they do is change around the office staff and then call it that. Anytime they have position switches they want to make it into some kind of major event. I guess the 15th will tell what kind of changes come next, especially if the CTLs are demoted.
Another weapon in their arsenal - Oops

Just like QA submission rate policy, performance management is always there, sometimes used, sometimes not, depending on what they want to do to us at the moment. I agree, when you have NJA and working on other accounts, they cannot, morally anyway, hold you to the same standards on QA blanks AND quality. Just not human I tell you.

Hope my CTL (in the North region) stays. Such a wonderful person and a pleasure to work with. Would certainly miss her if her position is eliminated.

My Job Was Eliminated

Well, I just got a call and my job has been eliminated due to lack of work.  I am part-time flex (because of medical issues). Yes, I have had NO WORK for weeks or more, but the strange thing is the last few days, I have had work no matter what time I clock on.  I have been getting new hospitals (or rather new to me, not sure if new to MModal), and I thought COOL.  Well, just got a call from my supervisor that my position (part time flex) has been eliminated due to no work.&nb ...

Are There Any IC Positions With 24-hour TAT?

Can anyone give me information on companies who hire IC's with a 24-hour turn around time?  I want to get my work today and turn it in by a certain time the next day without having to work a schedule or in pools.  With everything else going on with these companies from low pay, heavy ESL's, and lack of work, I would at least like to have the flexibility of doing the work on MY time.  Thanks in advance.... ...


Transolutions Few Positions Available
Jun 02, 2011

When I spoke with the recruiter, it sounded like there were just a few positions available. Yet, another recruiting ad showed up on Tuesday evening at another major MT recruiting website. So, I'm wondering, is the recruiter using the old trick of sounding like I'd better jump and grab one of those "few" positions, or did a bunch of people who were already hired suddenly quit? I wonder why Transolutions has had so many recruiting ads lately. Again, I was told that there were only ...

Just wandering if there are any employee positions that aren't just editing out there.  I feel like I am not growing as an MT doing nothing but editing.  Unless I choose to just edit and accept this is the new norm at 3 cents a line, eventually getting my own voice recognition software for the future for any accounts I want to get on my own. Any thoughts? I am wandering if this is something  I just need to hop onboard for.  Editing for nationals doesn't pay anything ...

Are There Any True IC Positions?

I am looking for a true IC position where I can work when I am available due to being handicapped.
