When you work inside on company equipment, take direction from supervisors, the odds are good that you're actually an employee.<br /><br />Don't know what each individual's separate situation is, but 'twere me I would do some research.

They have shifted work from India (Pune) to Canada to England. Yes they are chasing the incentives. And they have a shaky infrastructure as well. An employee doing the same job (like Roto/paint) can work for $12/hr while the person next him/her do same thing for $18. Unfair! Yes! Only thing that helped StereoD was when Deluxe allowed staff employees (if they were told they were) can get benefits like health, 401K, etc. The rest are contract and 1099ers with no benefits and no assurances they will ever have a "career" in VFX at StereoD.teknagirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16946835946270227070noreply@blogger.com
