EXTREMELY nitpicky and anal QA. Pay is - low, and getting lower. -sm

Some accounts decent, with eScription platform. Others are horrible, with job descriptions that are over-the-top ridiculous. Acusis transcription platform is slow, clunky, not user friendly. They send most of their work offshore, we get the dregs. Speed and accuracy expectations on employees are way too high for what they pay. US MTs seem to be fewer and fewer, my hunch is they're moving towards 100% offshored work in the future.
Acusis - the WORST company - Lenie

Save yourself some trouble - "extremely anal QA, nitpickers," is an accurate description.
This company is run by a bunch of ex-military "my way or the highway" types who don't know the first thing about medical transcription.
Most accounts dont pay for spaces/headers/footers. - They stopped paying for paragraph titles, too.

I'm really discouraged with the company I currently work for....so much of the work is being sent to India...Are there any good companies left where you can work, make a decent living, and not sit around your whole shift waiting for work to come trickling in?

Can someone please give me an update on JLG Transcription. The only references I found were from 2009. I wondered if anyone has any updated information.

I received a call today from a recruiter at U-Scribe in response to a resume I must have sent in. I have done some Google research as well as searched through this forum. There's not much to be said about this company except that they are hiring. The gentleman I spoke with today told me they are very backlogged. He said a majority of their clients are from England, Ireland and Scotland. This man was English. He sent me two files to transcribe and return, ...

I had applied to transcriptionamerica.com. I received an email back from a Nancy Lawson, National recruiter asking me to transcribe a sample file. I did this and when I tried to email it back to the address that she sent it from, I keep getting a failed delivery notice saying that the person's inbox is full.

Has anyone had any experience with this company? I sent my resume for a job posting and was contacted right away. The fishy thing (to me anyway) was that they didn't even want me to TEST for the position! What is that about? EVERY MT position I have EVER been a candidate for has wanted me to test. But nope, I had a phone interview and the next thing I know I am being offered a position. RED FLAG? ...
