Job Posting said something along the lines of "Top Wages and Excellent Benefits Package".
For the "Top Wages", their salary offer was so low that I made more on Net Pay (after taxes) at my previous job than Tynet's Gross Pay (before taxes). Same with other job offers I received, Tynet paid far, far lower than anyone I talked to in DFW.
For their "Excellent Benefits Package" here is what I remember and they did not volunteer any of this info, not even the Insurance part. I had to ask all of these questions:
- No Health Insurance at all (They told me I could get Health Insurance on my own for much cheaper, this is not true at all)
- 1 week paid vacation (You have to work there an entire year before you can use this 1 week of vacation)
- 0 sick days (I understand that employees can abuse sick days, but if you have 0 vacation days for an entire year guess you just don't get paid)
- 5 paid holidays (The minimum is usually 7, but many banks and accounting jobs pay 10. I didn't even bother asking what 5 holidays they honor)
- Start as a 1099 employee and possibly become W2 later on (This means they would not be taking any taxes out and I would have to cover this myself including the 2.9% Payroll Tax that employers usually pay. Meaning I would be paying an additional 2.9% in taxes by working as 1099)
- Something about have to wait 90 days for benefits to kick in (What benefits? I guess you might miss out on one of these paid holidays depending on your hire date)
I got better job offers with better benefits and pay right out of school.
