Never heard anything good about them.
I can hardly believe they still use the same name! - sm

they most definitely are a scam. Advise your friend. Also tell her never ever to pay a company to start working there. She's lucky to have a friend like you to help her check things out.
Also can't believe they are still around - WI MT

For the 7+ years I've been coming to this board, there have been posts about the scam these people are. I can't believe they still function under the same name either. It took about a month of reading this board all those years back to know they were bad-bad-bad, and all these years later, it still keeps coming up. Crazy.
Thanks! - Rita

Thanks for all this! I've been in contact with this company too and after it seemed too good to be true, I thought I would check out this board. I'm so glad this is here. Anyone know of a place that will hire entry level? I've been looking for my first job for 2 months now and getting no feedback or good news.

TransAm Associates, Valrico, FL Aug 23, 2013Does anybody know anything about TransAm Associates in Valrico, FL. I've heard many different things, good and bad, but have found out after working for them that they simply do not have enough work to go around. Sometimes I will have a lot of work and actually make a good buck, but then the rest of the month (yep paid once a month) - is so bleak and in "feast or famine" mode, may only see two to four jobs per day, thus negating all the earnings I made earlier in the month!  ...

Professional Dictation Associates Aug 19, 2012This is some of the worst audio I have EVER heard in my 30+ years in this business. I have sent emails and IM's but "apparently, the problem is on my end, becuase everything is as clear as a bell." NOT! Short, clippy, clinic notes, and QA pickier than all get out. I notated a tempate where I thought there was an incorrect spelling and was called on the carpet was that -- actually QA was wrong. With the amount of lines they expect as an IC per day, it is ridiculous and of course, ...
