DO NOT WORK AS A CONTRACTOR. This place is the WORST place for a temp job. First of all, I have 5+ years experience in the field - I contracted for this company for more than 2 years+ being promised for a full time position that NEVER HAPPENED. And so I worked here for a min wage of 30/hr (yes no joke) doing the duties of a senior engineer position. Worst yet, during hard times - they terminated my contract -- only to tell me that they will rehire me at $20/hour.... I think my 18 year old cousin gets paid that at his internship... and they offer me that for a SENIOR position?????? I am not joking, this is terrible. They are basically treating contractors like slave third world country labor. When I left and found a senior full time position elsewhere -- I realized what a terrible company this place was. I had many senior engineer level friends at WD getting paid ~75K and everyone thought that the benefits and pay was good... wrong. They need to get out and see that they are getting underpaid for their roles. My current senior full time position pays 1.5times more than what they make --- and the 2 other companies I had offers from were also 1.5times more. If you feel like being paid garbage and treated like garbage, work here.
