Posted: Jun 05, 2012

Why is this company advertising again? I don't get it?

Because they can't keep anyone - noyb

Why would a company spend time hiring someone and mess with paperwork, only to not follow through? Makes no sense to me whatsoever!!!!

From what I've heard - noyb

TTD is very unorganized and just a mess in general. Also, there are a lot of posts on this board from people who aren't getting paid for work they've already done. You should probably be thankful you didn't end up working for them. What kind of position are you looking for and how much experience do you have? I would happily recommend some good ones : )

I've been an IC for 10 years, part time. I have experience in everything from general clinic notes, H&P, physical therapy, op reports, pain management...I really enjoy Ob/Gyn.

Why surprised? They hire every 10 days or so for the past - two years or more.

Extremely high turnover! - Elise M

Work is unpredictable and pay is unreliable.

I am really unsure why everyone says that the pay is unreliable. I have always been paid on time and correctly. It takes roughly 5 weeks to get the first paycheck as they get paid a few weeks behind, but you always get paid.

Good for you, but NOT always the case. - Elise Mindy

For work performed 4/16/2012 - 4/30/2012, the check was supposed to be mailed on 5/25/2012. It's 6/6/2012 and I still have not received it yet! The owner pays who she wants to pay and when she wants to pay it. So, don't comment on other people's experiences. Just be happy that you are on the 'pay' list FOR NOW.

Have you contacted her about it? Mine was delayed a day or two, but did turn up, and in my case there was an error in my address which was corrected immediately for the future. Any time there has been a problem, they have always been good about getting it fixed. Might be worth a shot.

REALY!!????!!!! - In shock

Are you kidding! Read all the posts for this company. You are the MINORITY!!!!! Hardly anyone is getting paid on time and most of us like to type, and that is why we do...but we also have bills to pay! I gave them a fair shot and they turned out to be exactly like everyone else said. Eventually you need to realize it WILL happen to you too!

Maybe I am in the minority, but this is my experience after several years with the company. Any time a problem has arisen with anything at all, they corrected it right away. I show up to work when I say I will, I do the job I was hired to do, I get paid. It is that simple for me. I make enough money to do what I need to do, so that is all I know. I know several others still contracting for them that are happy with their jobs and the way things are done.

Yes, I can see how the lag time between work and pay can be an annoyance, but at least they are up front about it. I have worked for companies that don't pay until the client does, which is as far out as 90 days, and they don't tell you that until you start asking where a paycheck is.

I also notice that there are only a dozen or so people, if that, posting negatively on here, and yet there are hundreds that work for them. The ones who are working and happy don't seem to have the time to come on here and post.

I am not negating anything you say, nor questioning the validity of your claims. However, I want to paint an honest picture, and that has not been my experience, and I have just as much right to express that as you do. It is only fair that the OP get both the good and the bad.

I don't think there are hundreds working there - because - sm

They don't take people off of their panic e-mail lists LOL! There is not enough work for hundreds of transcriptionists - I know this because in these e-mails, it shows the current status of these accounts. If there were hundreds of people working there, you would never ever have any jobs in the columns because there isn't thousands of jobs a day that come in there.

And honestly, how can you type with a straight face what you said about why your check was late? Ummm, you've been there seven years and after seven years of paying you, they made a mistake on your address? Come on, girl - even you can't believe that one!

I get it that you are trying protect your employer. I also wouldn't be surprised if Amy or Dawn didn't ask you guys to come on here for damage control so you can have some sort of work force, which then ensures job security for yourselves. I get that, but for love of your fellow mankind and transcriptionist, don't lead people down a path with a company that is going to cause them more financial harm than good. Let your conscience be you guide, girl.

WTF is going on? I am no longer an MT, but I still care about a lot of people who are still TRYING to work at the Q.

I want to work a part time job to supplement my other part time job at Nuance because sometimes there is no work. I see an opening at TTS but when reviewing posts about TTS it sounds like a bad place to work with incompetent recruiters and managers. It seems 95% of the posts are bad regarding TTS. I am leery about working for a company that keeps advertising for help, especially if it isn't a large one like Nuance or MQ. Is this a good company where there is work or ...

Are any decent MTSOs actually hiring ICs... and I mean IC in the traditional meaning of the word; not locked into some arbitrary schedule design, but a daily line committment. I have 10 years experience. The company I was working for no longer has the account I was working on. They have given me some pick up work here and there, but I can't live on $100 a week or less from odd jobs while they find something new and steady. They estimate it may take 60-90 days for that to h ...

Does any one know of a company that is TRULY hiring? The small company I worked for no longer has the account I was. They have nothing steady for me to do right now. Christmas is coming and I have 5 kids and everything is going wrong (septic tore up, car tore up, etc.). There are tons of posts for Nuance, Softscript, etc....

How is TTS (Transcription, Technology & Support) to work for as far as enough work, QA, and overall being a reputable company?

some part-timers anyway, why not offer weekends to part-timers and offer some Mon-Fri shifts for the experienced full-time MTs you're trying to get..... That's about the only way you're going to get many experienced quality MTs. And there are always plenty of MTs looking for part-time weekend work as a 2nd job. ...

I'm a bit confused with Keystrokes.

I don't understand why they would have this ad and yet only be sending info about only the 2 jobs. I'm in their DATABASE and am sent these emails according to what opens up. I have not received anything about these supposed 40 j ...

Is this just a scam so that employers don't have to pay benefits and employer taxes? I bet if there was an audit, most ICs and MTSOs would be in trouble for using that classification improperly, especially for the full-time positions. I even applied for a full-time secretarial job in a small law office recently, and was told I would be hired as a contractor with no benefits. I was stunned and declined. I need to check with the labor department to see if some of my concern ...

Does anybody know if Keystrokes is hiring? I haven't seen any ads here for a while. I wanted to put in a resume, but only if it would be actually looked at and not just thrown in a drawer. I sent one to Transcend only to be told no openings available, and I'm going on their list. I've been on this list for a few months now, despite the frequent job ads placed, and have yet to be notified about anything available. ...

I see ads for Medtrans all over the internet for all different cities and you go to their website and it seems they are pushing you to take their course and then they will hire you. I am just confused because I keep seeing the companies advertise for months, yet they seem to say "no" a lot. I have 12 yrs experience in acute care, radiology, and clinic, and it's amazing to me how for some reason it seems impossible to pass these tests. Is it just me? ...

Thanks for your help. ...

They only hire for 2nd shift and that is to do the leftover, picked-through work from 1st shift. There is no way to make good money going this, though they give you a month to get up to 135 lph, which at 8.5 cpl is a whopping 11.48/hour. During training, on the 2nd evening of work, this is how I got treated, getting the worst of the work. I do not get any job satisfaction in doing others' leftover work; it makes me feel li ...

I just posted this on the wrong board (Job Seekers, what an idiot I am). Anyway, I'll try again here. Does anyone know if the position FutureNet is hiring for is for an oncology account or acute care? I would like to apply but not sure I am qualified. I'm looking for hem/onc job. This is sort of confusing to me. I have never seen a company ask for acute care experience if it is for oncology transcription. Any information would be appreciated. ...
