was MDI-MD bought out? - JUst curious

Posted: Dec 19, 2011

I have not seen any postings on the company for a few years. I actually was hired by this company 2 years ago and quit very fast as my first few days were not impressive. Tech support not calling me back, having to keep calling them, trouble with foot pedal not working. Just curious..

yes, but more like sold out. NM - anon

They merged with Transcend in a sell-out that was handled at the expense of their employees. There was hardly any work and when we asked we were told that "we are getting a big contract in September and everything will be fine, so just hang on." So many of us hung on and nearly lost our homes, faced foreclosure, etc. They needed us to stay until the merger. I personally went with another national, as I had some serious trust issues with them by that point.

What other national, and are you happy? I was very happy with MDI/MD in the past.

me too - dmz

I loved MDI also - was there over 5 years before the sellout. Very traumatic all the way around. Bigger doesn't always mean better, there are lots of places that have proved that!

Can't believe they were bought out. - Just curious

I got the impression that everyone loved it there especially for the flexibility. That is awful what they did though. Glad you found another job. I remember I had to mail them all kinds of paperwork and they sent me alot in return in regards to account specs and samples. That footplayer issue was kind of scary though. they said I had to call this other number but eventually someone at tech support helped me but I was trying to work another FT job and really wanted MDI part time but she said I better grab FT because she did not know when an opening would be available. This was about 2 years ago. Funny how things go. I been at my MTSO 12 years now. almost left a few times but ended up staying each time.

Has anybody worked for Alltype (Jerry Kelly) in the past in NJ? Apparently they were bought out by Medquist or M*Modal in 2012. I worked very briefly for Alltype in 2011 and then moved on to brighter horizons, although they reported to the IRS that I earned 4x what is actually on my W2 and according to my bank records. IRS needs me to contact Alltype for verification but they no longer exist (number disconnected)... so what to do? Something is very fishy and the ...

KOLKATA: CBay Systems — a leading healthcare BPO, that services nearly 40% of the US hospital market — is looking to become a $1-billion company and shift nearly half its work to India in the next two years. ******** Transferring work to India is a critical part of the strategy,” said Mr Kumar, one of the founders of the company.

working on your accounts from your bought-out company, are you consistently running out of work? We were told things would not change for a while but I'm running out of work all the time. I tried to apply for SUI this morning online but with this particular situation, I could not answer some questions to complete application so I have to go down there, which I am getting ready to do. I don't want to quit but this is getting extremely frustrating punching in and n ...

I know a lot of MT's have been forced into slavery by the Q when their company was bought out. I'm curious, how many of their promises did they live up to? I worked for them over 5 years ago but I'm sure a lot has changed since then (likely for the worse). I've seen people on these boards saying that their pay was cut, hours/accounts changed, etc. Of course we were promised that none of that will happen! I don't believe it, but I'm curious t ...

They so far have changed payroll, but not for ICs. Now they are doing a webinar, but ICs are not included. I'm thinking they're either going to get rid of ICs, or make us become employees or walk. Anyone have experience with MD-IT buying out the company you work for as an IC? ...

I am nervous and excited at the same time. It's been a long time since I was an employee, so it will be a change. I have a few friends who went there last year and are very happy, so I am sure it will be a good thing for all of us. The drawback is that I feel too old for change, and I know things will. ...

WMX employees are notified we will find out pay adjustments to be made as we blend in with Nuance sometime in November. Sucks... Just at holiday time. Can you tell us, did they stick it to everyone down to the 8 and 4 cents per line? We have found out about insurance, but like every other company the insurance is high. We are just waiting to find out about pay. If they cut people make 9 or 10 cents per line down to 8 there are going to be some ticked off tooties. ...
