Synernet - do not hire employees from Rhode Island - barandgrill


Posted: Jun 27, 2012

Tested and did extremely well for Synernet; however, they do not hire employees from Rhode Island.  When I responded to the advertised position, it had no mention of that.  Anyone have a clue?

likely a tax issue - xsynernet

Yep, Same thing happened to me with FN. sm. - Dorothy

There were not enough employees from the state in live in for FN to withhold state taxes. They did withhold taxes for a number of states, just not mine, so I had to go IC. Good luck.

Thanks for the responses. Would have gone IC if asked. Never been discriminated against for being from a particular state.

The MTSO has to be licensed in your state.... - anon

in order to withhold taxes for you as an employee. Obviously they are not licensed in NJ. They are not discriminating against you. Maybe NJ has state laws that they do not wish to abide by, so they have not applied for a license from there.
State minmum wage factors in too - starvingMT

I've been turned down, by other companies, because the minimum wage in Washington is one of the highest--it's cheaper for them to hire in states with lower minimum wage. Can't say for sure that's the case for you, but it is another reason. Good luck.

They don't hire in WA state either, neither does Diskriter. I thought it might have something to do with the minimum wage/Labor laws.

Synernet - No name

Synernet does not hire from a few different states. It has to do with worker's compansation laws in these states. I work there and have referred other MTs and found this out with one of them. Also, they DO NOT hire IC. Employee staus only. It's a great company. If you are really interested you can email me for an honest opinion. Been with them for 15 months.

Just An FYI To Synernet Employees

When I was there last year during the mandatory OT, I definitely did not work OT all the time. No one ever sent me an e-mail as to why I was not. I just could not do it. It was too taxing on my body, as I have some medical issues going on. Just so you know. Then when I did, I would do may be 4 hours sometimes 2. That is too much to ask of a person, as we do have a life and responsibilities outside of our job. ...

OMG How Funny - Read Glassdoor Opinion Of Employees, US Versus Indian Employees!

Why Don't The Big Companies Want To Hire

part-timers for weekend work anymore?  That's the way it was done for years, full-timers for M-F and part-timers for weekends, and it worked great because so many MTs are looking for extra weekend part-time work anyway.  It seems to be mostly the bigger corporations, as usual, changing things for the worse here.  Is it just the laziness of the HR & management people, not wanting to process part-timers?  I suspect a lot of the very-experienced MTs are working at small ...

I Really Don't Think It's Just To Continuously Hire MTs

as employees, yet the MTs are still on production instead of hourly, and the new hires never get any work to do.  If they do get any work, it's not enough to live on.  They want you to sit there until they have enough "extra" for you to do?? How is that right?  There must be some kind of fraud or something legally that I don't know about that can take these companies to task for doing this to people.  I'm tired of being treated this way, starving all the way t ...

Any Companies Hire M-F?

I know this is an extreme long-shot, but I'm wondering if there are any good MT companies out there that hire M-F and pay a fair line rate (for the way things are today anyway). It doesn't matter to me whether I work employee or IC. I just left Nuance a couple months ago and am working general transcription on my own schedule right now, but it's way too strenuous for the pay rate and the work is sporadic. I've got to figure out my next move, but I hate to go back to working e ...

For me, this is an ideal situation as I am at my most productive when I work a couple of hours and then do something else for awhile. There are so many MTSOs who take advantage of the MTs any way they can, and that makes me even more grateful for the ones who "do ...
