Imedx giving notice - 2 weeks or not?

Posted: Apr 29, 2015

Does anyone know if you do not give 2 weeks notice if they will still give you your accrued vacation time?

Sitting here today twiddling my thumbs staring at a blank queue most of the day. I am just totally over it. I'd rather just move on with my life ... but I do want my paid vacation time.

Putting my 2 weeks in soon, too so wondering - the same thing.

Jobs came dribbling in during my shift. I've had my fill!

Be aware you are eligible for unemployment. - nm

do not give 2 weeks notice - peachy

First, call your state and see if you qualify for underemployment based on your wages the last 4 quarters, decrease in work, etc. I had a full-time and a part-time job. I got fired from the full-time and filed for unemployment, even though I still had a part-time job. I was granted unemployment benefits of $300 a week. The catch is that if I make $300 a week from the part-time job, I receive $0, but, IF I only have enough lines to earn $150, then, I get $150. I also qualified then for food stamps, energy assistance and possibly income-based housing. Yes, this "profession" has landed me in the poor house.

After looking at a blank screen most of the week, I soon will be collecting the entire amount of unemployment, while my full time job is finding a new full-time job! Reading the post today regarding Nuance's plans to hire 3000 Indians over the next 18 months, and given that many of our accounts are subcontracted from Nuance, I would suggest inquiring about filing for underemployment sooner rather than later. In the meantime, I am also looking, looking, and looking for anything to get out of this nightmare before I get the phone call that the account(s) I am now on decided to go with Epic, in-house, another vendor, when it is pretty clear that is a bunch of BS.

vacation time - me

Why don't you request off your vacation and sick days and then give your notice?

No work at IMEDX - Blank screen

I know the feeling. My accounts have been like that for the last few weeks. I looked in the employeed handbook and it has there if you do not give a notice you will not receive your PTO. Sick days you will not receive unless used.

Depends on how much PTO you have and if it - would keep you from another job - sm

You don't have to worry about whether or not they would rehire you because they are eliminating US MTs and sending the work to India. That is why they have a hiring freeze. Also, don't worry about whether they blacklist you with other companies. They clearly are the new kid in town with the absolute worst reputation, and other companies know they are worthless. Other companies are definitely in the loop with what has been going on. At this point I would be ashamed to work for them and have already quit. Get your PTO out of the way before you give a notice if you can.

Been there, done that.

Everything is at-will state, so you don't even have to give notice anymore - anon

In-house does not give notice. You are told on the spot. That is what it is in today's work force. They are afraid you will retaliate All security codes and passwords are secured and you are locked out. Don't think anyone in this job cares. Here today, homeless tomorrow.

I see a lot of confusion here lately. Let me clear things up. I know we all think of it as quitting in advance, but that's not the case, even if you tell them "I'm going to quit in 2 weeks." When you give your notice, whether it's 1 day, 2 weeks, or a month in advance, you're essentially saying "I quit, but if you need time to find a replacement, I'm willing to stay for x amount of time." This is just a courtesy. If they decline your offe ...

Is Nuance still in the habit of cutting you off right away if you wish to give notice of leaving? I am nervous about taking the leap back into IC but need the flexibility, but what if it doesn't work out....what to do, what to do? I start training this week and want to give 2 weeks notice, just for the fact that I want to keep working around the same time of day that I am scheduled at Nuance - and goodness knows we can't work outside of our schedule - so can't do both at th ...

A 10 day notice has been given on a longstanding hospital account. Employees on this account will be moved to other accounts (September 30, 2013). Remember the goold old days when we were notified 10 days before losing an account? Don't you think it's odd Imedx does not do this anymore? Multiple accounts go down last month and not a peep, just locked out? ...

Moderator, please delete everything on your site that refers to Imedx, even this post of mine, it is only the right thing to do. I prefer to be angry and have no where to vent. Last week we were told by Op Mgr that "she has a call into the client about why volume is so low." Yesterday, we got a "yippee" from "her" about having a coupla hundred jobs ready. This morning, we got an email saying, "we need to make sure you have backup accounts now." I wont address the timesheet issue, I am still ...

It is hard to take the leap of faith. It is hard to not be an "MT" anymore after so long. It is hard to think of myself as doing something else...

I am giving it up, transcription work. I have been a transcriptionist since 1998 and have thus so far on this board or other boards have had a job that supported me in doing my work.

I am a newbie to the transcription world. I have a year's experience in this field but it is so frustrating trying to find a job and finding that person/company that will give you a chance to gain that experience. I am getting frustrated with job searching and every job saying they require 2 years experience or even more like 5 years. I did go to online schooling and graduated and felt like my schooling taught me a lot. I gave up a good paying office job so th ...

I just took a job that said they paid 3.2 cpl for edited and 6.8 for transcribed. Almost everything is edited. Now they want me to divide my edited line count by half and claim that as my edited line count, not the total number of edited lines I do. Has anyone else been told this kind of stuff? I can't believe it! If I do this I only get paid 1.6 cpl for my edited lines. I am flabergasted! I can't live off that in America, who could? ...

No one on this board seems to give specifics when they get canned from IMEDX. So my question is this: Can each person who got laid off/fired let us know more details. Were you PT or full time, did they call or did they email, did you have options, or just firing. How many lines did you do per day. Some of us may not be in your situation and you may have been just an employee that was not worth IMEDX's time and they got rid of you while they may keep all the others, or full timers. Details p ...

I hate working for this company and their value system. We were bought out 3 months ago by them and I've been watching and listening. They only seem to focus on 2 things: money and getting ahead of the other transcription companies, ie, greed. This whole thing about sending work to India, their way of obtaining employees (ie buying companies out or whatever you wanna call it--even if its legal its underhanded to say the least). The very thing our industry is sup ...
