- CoolGuySteve 8y agoYou're responsible for hiring a lawyer and suing the company if you make over $900/week, which probably every developer in NYC does. https://labor.ny.gov/workerprotection/laborstandards/workprot/lshmpg.shtm https://labor.ny.gov/workerprotection/laborstandards/workpro...
- bonestamp2 8y agoOuch. Hopefully you left a factful glassdoor review for the next person.
- jacquesm 8y agoLikely this comment is worth 10 glassdoor reviews, and could alert others still working there as well to these practices.
- bonestamp2 8y agoIn content sure, but not in reach.
- DoofusOfDeath 8y agoThis might be one argument in favor of having a union or guild for developers: pooling of funds to temporarily cover legal fees.
- olliej 8y agoGenerally however they don’t become liable for the time you aren’t working because you’re dealing with them, and that ignores the actual up front costs in hiring a lawyer. A lot of this theft is targeted at people who literally cannot afford to make a claim, and for some reason you can’t just report the theft to the police.
