"It is in the process of being reviewed and will be out shortly."

I have been hearing that for approximately 1 year.

Yeah right! It is what they decide for today! - hypertyper

Got the run around for months. Wanted to know why I wanted it. I wanted to confirm and compare FT and PT benefits. Was asked why I wanted to know that and if I had someone who was interested in that to refer them to HR. Finally, after months of asking I received an email of what was considered FT/PT and what holidays were paid. That's it. I have a relative who is HR in her company-she says it is standard when you are hired to received an employee handbook that tells all that-one of the first things she gives employees. Possibly something they don't want us to know about? I do believe they keep changing things because my line count and pay keeps changing.

Can anyone tell me what I am looking at if that happens, trying to figure out if I should be looking for employment elsewhere.  here are my main questions:  1.  Is there a starting pay or is everyone paid differently? 2.  Is there a schedule or is it flexible? 3.  What kind of benefi ...

Which Is Better, Employee Or IC?
Dec 16, 2014

I am a part time employee of an MTSO. In California the min wage is $9/hr, which means at 0.85/line for editing my LPH must add up to $9, while MTs in other states may only have to make $7.50 or so to remain employed. My Team Leader said that is somewhat unfortunate for me; as a 1 year out-of-school newbie I'm not as fast as other MTs.  A few years ago I was an IC and I recall they did have a minimum line count per day but I don't recall having to produce more than ...

Statuatory Employee
Apr 27, 2010

Curious to know if anyone on this board is a statuatory employee with the company they are working for and outside of the company paying your SS tax and FWT, do you get any type of benefit, i.e., PTO, health, etc. Is it strictly just for tax purposes? Would you get a W2? Do you have to adhere to a schedule? I was a "stat" employee many years ago, when I first started and don't remember if it was just for the tax thing or if I got any benefit/s also. Thanks for any info. ...
