mydemos.com — I applied to Nerds on Site back in May, because I thought being an independent consultant as part of a larger company would push my current consulting business to a higher level. Well, after 5 weeks of trying to set up my first appointment with them to talk, I give up. If this is how they recruit, how do they treat their employees?

I was with nerds on site for three years , you have to pay 3500 just to become a nerd, and you have to buy your own car 15000. You also have to pay for your own benifits and part of your cell phone minutes prolly that cost is 400 + a month. Then your car insurance on top. Its not cheap to be a nerd. Then when you join nerds on site , you have to get your own cuustomers, you are the salesmen , you are the tech you do the invoices, you buy the car , they get 50%. So if you bill 4000 a month in service fees, (which is way above average). you would take home 2000 , then pay taxes, you would have 1500 left, then insurance ,benifits and car loan, you would have just enough left to pay for your lunches and gas, with no money left to pay your bills. You are lucky nerds did not call you back, I was a nerd 1 year ago, when i left there was 12 in my region , now there is 2 or 3 active ones.
