Pros

Working from home can be considered a Pro and a Con. But we (the employees) pay for that, through lower pay, much higher tax burden - we shoulder the entirety of the payroll taxes for employer and employee, while they pay no duties on us and pay us less compensation, $22-24, making our actual take home in the $15 range-as ATTORNEYS. It's really the scam of the century.

Cons

1. Flex hours - this is a tactic they use to illegally classify attorney project employees as 1099 and to pay far less than market. This is a complete farce, a fraud that leaves the attorney consultant carrying the employer and employee tax burdens. Victimizes the employee. Check the IRS's 20-factor test. There is no alignment with Inspired's policies to the IRS's worker classification guidelines. 2. UnInspired Review discriminates on the basis of age. The CEO has what he calls a "Silver List," consisting of over-40 candidates. Everyone on the list is considered 'do not place.' We should all demand discovery of our candidate records and profiles. 3. The management team behave unintentionally-they lack mission and principles, and incoherently. The co-founder and ops leader, is not all there...you’ll never get a cogent, straight, honest answer. 4. Serious concerns go ignored for as long as it takes for you to forget about it. An employee had a legitimate payroll question and it went unanswered for weeks and weeks until the employee just stopped asking. Their management strategy is avoidance and confusion. 5. The culture is one of chaos and amorality. The CEO is unethical, in that he is always looking for ways to trim more out of payroll (by shifting W-2's to 1099's, among other illegal tactics), and to bilk clients at higher rates, disguising his project managers' poor work product. This is not what they're selling to clients: managed, secured, methods-driven...it's un-managed chaos that relies on the reviewers' superior legal knowledge and integrity to eek by day to day. The CEO is erratic and enforces a culture of zero integrity and disregard for laws regulating employment and employee needs. 6. Project managers with few exceptions are cruel and they avoid solving problems... You'll never get a straight answer out of them, either. Blind leading the blind. The list could go on.
