They pay, but they take a Retainer of $2500.oo and workmans comp at 8.75% per week and still owe for charging for GL ins when we carried it yet he took it from check without notice and I sent another copy of GL ins, and still havent seen the money for it, not saying he doesnt pay, just alot of stuff is taken out of your check and the rate doesnt pay to work . Just our experience with PDC Cable so read your contract throughly before signing, also pay is two weeks out from first invoice, not from when you first start working. GOOD LUCK!!!
