Cbay/Heartland/Medquist - layoffs
Posted: Mar 02, 2010
I remember when the layoffs happened and then feared the worst when Cbay bought us last year. My question is this: What was the layoff package? Severence? How long did it last and what did it include? Thanks in advance.
When I was laid off from Cbay, - sm
[ In Reply To ..]they finished out my week of pay. That was it. Got the notice in the middle of the day of a mandatory meeting, no notice, and locked out of the system effective immediately. They were very underhanded about it, and the guy was very cold and nearly laughing about the situation as we cried. I hope karma catches up with him some day. The bottom line is that we really didn't see it coming & there was no warning.
Karma will catch up. Even the Indians themselves believe in Karma. - And boy are they due.
[ In Reply To ..]You do reap what you sow in life. I have seen in already in my lifetime. It is true. And if not in this lifetime and good luck in the next.
I have a feeling if not enough MTs walk out after this email, there is eventually going to be a huge layoff.
That is shame to be so underhanded and fire all of you in that way, but I guess that is how big business operations and the little guy has no recourse. Even our own Supreme Court is for big business.
Our greedy MTSOs learned from the best: The greedy - little reptiles that own Indian MT companies! nm

OH OH ! I have a "mandatory" meeting - day after next. NM
[ In Reply To ..]NM
It wasn't a typical mandatory meeting though. It - laid off cbayer
[ In Reply To ..]was a no-notice, got an email right then saying mandatory meeting in a few minutes, urgent, everyone MUST attend, etc. Not the standard mandatory meetings we usually have, so I wouldn't worry about your meeting at this point.

I just got through reading the website of CBay in its entirety to get more insight into their company.

I clicked on the Executive Bios section and got to read about each executive's background, etc. What I saw and read were numerous CBay individuals (all men I might add) with many years' worth of previous employment by well known companies, som ...
Wow! Just Thought Of How CBAY
Jul 29, 2010
CBAY could get rid of a lot of board of directors. Does CBAY have any idea how much money it could save them? In fact, why we are at it, get rid of the United States board of directors and bring in their own India board of directors. They could probably pay their suits half or even less than it would cost for United States board of directors. Plus! Would not have to pay incentives, benefits, bonuses, gas for their cars, credit expenses for lunches and golfing, e ...

I mean, seriously, jumping from the 15 to 20 now is such a piece of cake, and you really dont want me thinking I have the upper hand here, do you? ...

Dear MQ/Cbay ILP Who I QA'd Tonight
Apr 23, 2011
If you can't hear parts of the dictation, leave a QA marker. It looks really bad when the client is on 100% for ILPs and all you did was copy and paste an old progress note with a few changes to the impression and plan. Seriously?! Did you listen to any of the dictation? Cuz it didn't come close to matching up. Sure, the dictator was difficult and hard to hear, but I could hear enough to know that what the ILP typed didn't even come close to what was said, ...

Also, CBay has gone private and claims it is an American Company. It is not, it is now privately owned by an Indian company doing business with corporate offices in London. I don't know what thi ...
