Pros
- Get a crash course on how long a company can ignore a problem. 2 years in this case. - Participate in a stellar self-control exercise. Management told me the extra money from their overpayment "mistake" was mine, I knew something was off and didn't spend it. Ultimately that discipline allowed to get out of there.
Cons
They have either gross incompetence or a straight-up scam to trap employees. It was a nightmare dealing with their incompetence and questionable ethics. From day one, I noticed they were overpaying me and brought it up to management multiple times. They brushed it off, and let it keep happening for TWO YEARS. Near the end of my contract, they "suddenly realized" claimed it was a "mistake" and demanded the almost 6 figure lump sump back or for me to stay and "work it off". That overpayment "mistake" was a deliberate scam to retain people in an undesirable work place. To top things off, they are now withholding my W2 form. I am still trying to correct my taxes from their overpayment "mistake" and now this. They are for sure the gift that keeps on giving.
