Easy。

Operation less than half a year, the extraordinary set the United States will soon support, employees and suppliers complain repeatedly. Delays in arrears of wages, changes in labor contracts, social security, arrears of payments to suppliers, especially the United States is not only seemingly unsustainable, the storm is also ongoing. Staff estimates that the company's arrears to employees and suppliers are estimated at millions of yuan or even higher.

Employee says salary is not in place

The company's full name for the special United States Network Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "DMS"), headquartered in Hong Kong, mainly in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Beijing and other locations. Its model is defined as "C2B new electronic commerce", although it has an E-commerce site, but its core operating mode or through the offline members to join, and then to do the line under the custom, and eventually the product to the customer hand.

DMS in Peng's dictionary, should be a "personalized custom-made, pre-sale, group purchase" Fashion Electric Company, and it is said to have "international top capital Injection", its registered capital of 50 million yuan. Moreover, Peng also gave the company a "2015 years ago sales revenue reached 20 billion yuan, the profit reached 600 million yuan" the grand goal.

But the company from last May operation, September website online again to this year around March, has been poorly run, a large number of employees were cut.

Several DMS former employees told the first financial daily that the company had issues such as change of contract, arrears of wages, missing social security and payment of arrears to suppliers.

An employee who resigned this February said to our correspondent that last May he had obtained the admission Notice of DMS, at that time the hired party was Suzhou Willow New Industry (Peng Personal control of another Suzhou Local enterprise), and the Middle party was also more formal outside the service company, and decided to join in it.

But by September last year, he was asked by the Human resources department to sign a labor contract, the other party gave the reason is that the original intermediary and the company there are some disputes, hope that employees through a name "Kai-hui" Labor Dispatch company signed a new labor contract. Once the name of the company is registered, the contract will be updated.

"Although a lot of people are not happy, but considering the extraordinary set the company's future seems to be good e-commerce companies, Peng himself in the photovoltaic industry also has a good reputation, and we just entered a few months to find a job will have a variety of problems, I and other colleagues agreed to sign." But the new labor contract has not been handed in to the present. ”

The Director of human resources at DMS had promised that the new contract would be distributed to everyone at the beginning of this year, and that the director once again reneged, the employee said.

In addition to the changes in the labor contract, the arrears of salaries are also a headache. According to the company, the DMS, which employs more than 500 people, suddenly began slashing jobs around December last year, up to hundreds of people, and he was also being cut.

"The company told me that DMS now needs to change its business direction, and my existing position may be canceled and the contract needs to be lifted." "On the night of the conversation, he got a letter of dismissal from his email address at home to leave the company at the end of January this year, and DMs promised to supply him with a half month's salary." "This is a problem, I have consulted the relevant legal person, should be compensated for my one months ' salary." ”

After finishing work at the end of January this year, he has not received his last one months ' salary since February, and his social security has been shut down for the month.

According to the reporter of the first financial daily, some employees in Shenzhen and Shanghai have also revealed that their wages have been owed for several months, and some social security in the last few months although the "DMS" deduction, but not directly into the personal Social security account, the whereabouts of the money is unknown. According to a number of former staff estimates, DMS arrears of staff wages may reach millions of dollars. At present, the former employees of DMS have filed labor arbitration in many areas, such as Suzhou Xiangcheng District, Shanghai Zhabei authorities have received complaints. Yesterday, the human resources director of DMS has been unattended.

Employees are required to purchase products

And former DMS staff told the first financial daily that DMS had also let employees buy things from their own pockets to support the company's operations.

"I remember Peng sent an email to let each of us go to the website to experience shopping, preferably three or more times." "A DMS employee says that since the boss has invited the staff to go shopping, it's nothing to experience.

But he said that after several purchases, he found that prices were more expensive than those of jingdong and other websites. For example, I bought a box of health care products for relatives, the price is more than 400 yuan, but other sites more than 200 yuan on it. Also some employees bought goods, waited 1 months did not get express. ”

To his memory, at the end of last year, DMS called on everyone to buy pad, the price is 2000 yuan, "This mobile terminal is not an apple, is a small factory in Shenzhen, I also bought, and later heard that more than 300 people bought." If this is the case, the company will get 600,000 yuan a one-time. ”

There are also suppliers to the "first financial daily" sigh, and DMS cooperation for several months, has not received the payment.

A Beijing supplier to the reporter disclosed that its last September with the DMS cooperation, mainly engaged in clothing and other supplies. Each other at the time of the agreement is: after each month shipments, to the second month of 15th, will carry out the final payment, but lasted for several months, did not obtain the DMS knot.

"We were not aware of it at first, but in February this year we sent someone to the company and suddenly found out that their office in Beijing had been reduced from two floors to one floor." We called the salesman at DMS, but the phone didn't pass. "A former LDK employee told reporters that Peng might have a real plan for the DMS to adjust," the DMS didn't get much, and the adjustment was inevitable. And, as far as I know, Peng has always been good to the staff. A few years ago, LDK also had a difficult period, but he did not lay off staff, but paid. Now that DMS and LDK may be short of money, they will default on some wages and suppliers ' money. ”
