Has anyone ever worked for FutureNet Technologies? What was/is your experience like with them?

do the problem dictators that the system cannot handle, and that, too, will eventually disappear to that software. Constantly our of work until they sell another company their software, and they subcontract to smaller MTSOs.

People are nice. system is okay. But work, when there is some, it the bottome of the barrel.

Wow, you just described Nuance! - That is the Nuance M.O.

Most of the work is on multiple speech recognition platforms, none of them consumer friendly. As above, this company dumps a lot of work to smaller MTSOs. It is real hit and miss as to whether you will be able to make a paycheck, although you will be required to work 5 days a week and have a schedule, even as an IC.

Look at some of the history posts here about FutureNet. Years back you could make a "decent" living if you worked long enough hours but they have transitioned to a new Mmodal platform. Back in March they pushed hard but finally after most people realized you could not even make the equivalent of minimum wage and left FN decided to return to old platform. Well, now six months later they have basically renamed the Mmodal to FNSR which is really the same horrible program. You cannot earn a decent living using it.

So true - anon3

Much of the work for FN is still being done on MModal. A big chunk of the rest is being done on FN's version of MModal which is just as crappy of a platform. It's just one fib after another with this company. Not sure why I keep trying to stay with this company. I have definitely cut back to their bare minimum required hours and I no longer work extra. If I run out of work on my "shift" I go work for someone else. I never thought I would hoping to be old enough to retire, but it can't happen soon enough.

Is anybody getting enough work from this company (FutureNet Technologies Corp.) to make a living lately? Am I the only person finding such a drastic lack of work at all hours of the day and most days of the week? For the record, I work on multiple accounts. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Both the traditional transcription work and speech recognition work is drastically lower in volume over the last couple of months, and not just occasionally. Thanks for any information, as ...

OK, I know that probably nobody on here has heard of Stat-Copy Technologies out of Texas, because it is a small company, but I have to warn people anyway. The wage dispute person from MT Stars cannot help me because I am an independent contractor. This company now owes me over $2500 for work that I did in July and August. The last time she paid me was on Oct 10, for a check that I should have had on Aug 15 -- 2 months late. I have sent repeated e-mails aski ...

I went to work for them knowing they were Indian run but had a US address and oh yah the VP's name is the name of a temple somewhere.

A few weeks ago, I wrote a post on the company board that STAT-Copy Technologies is over 2 months late paying me (over $2500). A week and a half ago, she had sent me an e-mail saying she sent a check, which I have not yet received as of today. I contacted her again to let her know I had not received any check. I told her I was tired of messing around and begging for my money and she would hear from my attorney. Well, she just e-mailed me and told me her company is filing ...

Not sure what is up with them. They have several ads again but there is absolutely no work for us long timers. Suspect they are hiring newbies and paying less to get the work done. BTW, do not ever expect an increase in line rate. You will NEVER get one. Also do not expect to attain those bonuses they talk about in the ads - they have now made it impossiible to reach that level by maknig work unavailable, once you get close to making the bonus you can expect to see no work available ...

How is Futurenet (Futurenet Technologies located in California) to work for? Is there plenty of work or do you have no work on a regular basis? How is administration?

Wondering if anyone on here uses FutureNet (possibly the glitchiest, most annoying transcription software ever created). I use it at work. When I started using it, it seemed to have a pretty good medical dictionary in it -- recognized all the medical terminology and almost all of the drugs, so I ASSUMED that all that was included. So now we have a newbie, and when SHE uses FutureNet, it marks every single drug as an error (red wavy line), as well as all the medical terms. I'm to ...

The ding at the end of the report. I know it's crazy but it was strangely comforting. Ding! you are done!

What do my former Futurenet buddies miss? ...

I recently went back there part-time to supplement my day job after quitting because I got real tired of the highly fluctuating work flows. My husband really pushed me to do this because we needed the extra money. Once again, there is never any work for me to do, and yet they are hiring again? Saying they need 2nd and 3rd shift? That's what I do. I'm not even going to bother trying to talk to them about it, because I already tried that and got nothing back ...

Does anyone presently work for or in the recent past worked for FutureNet out of California? They are currently hiring and I would like to know of anyone's experience working for them either as an MT or an Editor.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can supply this. ...

Hi group! I have a job interview with Rita at Futurenet tomorrow. The reason I am looking is I am really tired of constantly running out of work because my company over hired and now we transcriptionists are just out of luck! I am in my 4th year with my current job and suddenly can barely hit $100 a day. This is really sad when there is no loyalty to their employees. Now from what I have been reading Futurenet is the same??? I read from this group how they run ...

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. ...
