Is FutureNet a good company to work for? Do they have benefits and pay rate?

The program itself is extremely basic and can error out a LOT. No benefits that I know of. Pay for MTs basic, for QA poor - I'm really surprised they aren't on the list of companies being sued for less than minimum wage compensation. The accounts are largely extremely difficult ESL - I've been at this 28 years and it was horrible to even me. They charge you 20.00 to overnight your check to you, more than the going rate for overnight mail.

IC status, but must work a shift you select from what they have available. They tend to always need 2nd and 3rd shifts. Absolutely no benefits. As usual, no guarantee of work, and that means there is often a lack of work even though you must work your scheduled shift. Work is lacking even if you are assigned multiple accounts. The lack of work includes evenings, night shift, weekends, holidays, and includes acute care accounts. The company has various rules regarding docking pay and locking you out of the system, many legitimate, some extreme based on lack of work. Pay is average for industry. Platform is stable, but basic. You need to buy your own add-on short cut program that works with Word for Windows. Both traditional typing transcription and a lot of voice recognition.

and not sure why. I really need to move on.

This company does not have benefits. Everyone is an IC, but you need to choose a schedule. No matter how many accounts you work on, there is a lack of work at any time of day and most days of the week. One needs to work more hours than their assigned shift and even then, it's a struggle to get enough lines depending on your personal goals. The majority of the work is speech recognition, but a few accounts still have some work in traditional transcription. The accounts are heavy with ESL and challenging dictations (in-house takes the easier work).

KS seems to be getting lower and lower in the popularity with emplooyees test. I worked for them once but left for the reasons everyone is talking about.  There was no communication. The owner was never truthful and everyone is afraid of her because of her horrible temper tantrums. The accounts are overstaffed - you might get put on another account but it will be overstaffed too. The only accounts that are not overstaffed are the terrible ones that no one wants to work on and it is imp ...

I have over 20 years experience and I am not eager to jump from job to job, but it seems there are so many company's out there that are really, really bad.  Any input would be wonderful, I would like to find either PT or FT with my experience being mostly clinic setting but strong oncology, OB/GYN, urology, or ...

I am currently working at a hospital as a Lab Assistant in Pathology. My job has many different responsibilities, but majority is transcription – which I love! I am trying to decide if I want to try becoming an at home medical transcriptionist. This is a huge decision/risk for me as I have been in my current position since 1999. I used to love my job, but as the years have passed, I have found myself disgusted to go to work. This is due to changes in personnel and too many people not ...


TransTech- Good Company
Nov 19, 2013

I've been with TransTech for about 2 years, but I'm going to back to working with people now that I'm not having to deal with military moves anymore. I thought I'd pass along to the job hunters that TransTech is a good place- they pay on time, have a good work load consistently, and not too much ESL. It's not for you if you don't want to commit to 40 hours or work a few holidays, but it's an honest gig that you can make a living with. ...
