Question for those of you who were bought out by MQ: - Former DSGer to become slave of the Q


Posted: Feb 07, 2012

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 to hear from those of you with personal experience.  

I haven't signed my "job offer" from them yet and I'm wondering if I should.  I just need confirmation of my fears I guess.

You got an offer? I haven't yet. NM - adkmt

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 ...
