I recently received a LinkedIn message from Digipulse Technologies Position: IT Recruiter (Work from Home) Requirements: US Residency, experience with W2 hiring in Java, Angular, Cloud, etc., familiarity with job boards. Pay Structure: $1000/month base pay + commission after 1st placement $1500/month base pay + commission after 2nd placement $2000/month base pay + commission after 3rd placement $2500/month base pay + commission after 5th placement Plus bonuses based on yearly targets. Concerns: No Base Pay Initially: The offer lacks an initial base pay for W2 employment, which seems unusual and potentially illegal. Recruiter's Statements: The recruiter claimed no minimum base pay is required for W2 employees and that this is standard during a "learning process." Potential Legal Violations: I'm concerned this may violate federal labor laws regarding minimum wage for W2 employees. Question: Is this type of pay structure for a W2 employee legal and acceptable?
