This ad appeared on July 18 and mentions some "Advantages".

Here are some of the disadvantages of working through E&E

1. Not being paid on time.
2. Not being paid.
3. Being lied to about the accomodation. Furnished with a mattress and a TV set. No table, chairs.
4. Have nothing done to fix accomodation problems.
5. Being threatened with no release letter and blacklisted if you want to quit.
6.When you give a month's notice to quit you can enjoy not getting paid for the last month, paying the money back for the visa run, paying costs related to the accomodation, paying other charges that are not in the contract.
7. Getting fired with no notice.
8. Being told when getting fired that the company has lost a lot of money and is about to shut down and therefore can't pay all it is legally obilged to pay you.

They also use to different names to advertise the jobs they have.

Oh, baby! I applied for that one! I remember reading about the horrors of EandE (is this David Kang's new outfit?) but didn't even bother to look at the name of the recruiter. That's one lead I won't be pursuing. Thanks for the tip.
