If they buy out your company, will you eventually be changed to an IC and lose benefits? Thanx.

When they bought out my employer, we remained employees with full benefits, but all of our work went to India except for 1 account..So all of us who were still hanging on were competing against each other for work in order to meet our line counts.. I was working 12 hours a day to get 1000 lines...i finally quit and became IC with another company...just my experience.

How long did it take for the changes to start?
changes started 6 months after buyout - not anon above, another poster - nm
Just like clockwork... - took 6 months for major changes...

... to start showing up. I'll give it another 3 months for some really drastic things to happen. I've been through several buyouts in the last 15 years and so far, iMedX is doing everything time-wise and otherwise that has happened to me before.
You should always work on a Plan B in these instances. I started looking for a new job the day they announced the buyout and it's taken me this long to finally find one... right at the 11th hour. Some people may remain in 3 months, but my experience is that the majority will not be here in March 2015.
Has anyone on this board ever had a good experience with a buyout?
I was at Cymed when they were bought by SPI many moons ago. My personal experience with buyouts is that the most important indicator is not what management tells you but what they actually do. If managers are leaving, that should be your red flag to get out ASAP - do not pass Go, do not collect $200.
Of course, that's just my experience, and that's why I was wondering if anyone actually had a good experien ...
change (i.e. hourly versus production) and if so, how long until this took place? Thanks for any information. My company was recently acquired by Nuance and I'm just trying to figure out how much time I have until the changes start. TIA ...
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 ...
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 ...
What we were told is that it was a "partnership". They were just described to us as a new HR company taking over our HR Department. I hadn't heard anything about people getting layed off, but it doesn't surprise me. We just elected our health benefits with United Health Care and now they want us to they want to choose health plans all over again with Aetna!! ...
Things are just too quiet. So many problems, and I feel like they just quit talking about them. No more mention of shutting down TT e-mail, etc.
I agree with a poster below who stated she feels like she works for a nonentity.
I realized today I haven't even seen an e-mail from DH in a month. Starting to wonder if even she jumped ship or was told to get off the ship.
...
I was lucky enough to get out of MT and TT/Imedx just before Christmas. I can't remember how many payroll companies there were last year and how many W2s to expect. Guess I'm just trying to block out the whole experience of TT/Imedx! TIA ...
Has anyone received their TT W2s from before IMEDX as of yet? Can anyone tell me the website where they would be available? I believe it was ADP, and I can't get in there. TIA for any and all help. ...
I am afraid that imedx is wanting to eliminate all TransTech employees. That is the only thing that makes sense to me, considering their decisions. We will see. ...
Okay, so got the e-mail about making sure our contact information is correct within their system and giving us a date by which we should make sure it is correct. What is up their sleeve next? I don't trust with these people who seem to communicate very little and are normally very disorganized, want to just "make sure" all their info is correct and up to date. There has to be a reason, especially because it comes with a deadline and we are nearing the year anniversary of th ...
Even after telling them to ______ the other day, I'm still able to log on and do reports (what appears to be some sort of leftover garbage from a mumbling moron), a former TT account. Wonder if I'll get paid the few bucks they will end up owing me? Why do I have the feeling this place will cease to exist before long? ...
So, what's going on with IMEDX/TT? Famine...now feast? For the last few days we are swamped, when for the last few weeks we were running out of work hours early? Does anyone know what is really going on with this accounts (MDAnd)? Asking for bonus now, when we were afraid of losing our jobs any day? I am seeing dictators I have not seen in a year or more, if ever...I still think we are going to lose the account entirely sooner or later...would just like to know one way or the oth ...
Has anyone made this switch (recently). Are you happy? I know the pay might be lower, but does the pay for headers and footers made a difference and how is the work flow and overall stability?
Thanks! ...
It is cruel to let your MTs sit without work. It is psychological torture. Do us a favor .... lay off more people so the ones left will have work and the others can move on. And yes, I know that means me. On at least some level, it would be a relief.
...
My tax return just got kicked back for having the wrong Employer Identification Number for IMEDX.
Since I am at my new job :) and don't have access to my W2 @ home, can someone kindly give me that number so I can file my taxes?
I know I can call them but thought I would see if someone here could help me out first.
Thank You! ...
I was let go on a Friday afternoon right before a weekend trip. Apparently I should've chained myself to the computer 24/7 looking for work and neglected my husband and preschooler. Fine with me, it was for the best. Sad what this profession's come to. ...
I just printed out my last two paychecks and my production pay is NOT what I was making prior. Has anyone else noticed this or can tell me when did we get our pay cut? ...
Does anyone work for ImedX and if so, are you happy? It seems they have US based transcription services, but it seems shady...... Im afraid to take the plunge. My gut says no, but my unpaid bills are saying yes....... Id rather starve than work for an offshore company, so please, give it to me straight! ...
it would appear that LS Services out of south point, ohio is the same company that was formerly named ImedX..... same address, etc..... Anyone know anything else about this? ...
