The rumors of nonpayment and slow payment are true. I personally was fool enough to work for them well over a year. From my own experience, when checks did show up, they were consistently 10-14 days late. (It was usually time to turn in the next invoice before you got paid for the last one!) I had 5 checks bounce, and I never got paid for the last 2 pay periods--which equates to a month of salary. I also know there are still several of us floating around out here whom etranz did not pay when we left.
I think the etranz owner has had this happen so many times, she is oblivious to the threats of taking her to court, reporting her, etc. She knows we're independent contractors--not employees--and as such don't have the protection a true "employee" would have. By the way, there are no employees at etranz--just ICs. And no benefits whatsoever.
The best I can do is warn you to stay away if you want to get fair payment for a fair day's work.
