Tracking & Payments:
-
You will get paid weekly once you start a project with Soundings. Whether you're working one project or five projects, all of your payments will come each Friday!
-
Unless stated otherwise by the customer you are working for, you submit any expenses incurred in the same location you track your hours worked. These reimbursements will show up with your weekly pay.
-
There are multiple benefits to entering your time weekly! First, the Soundings Team can approve your hours to guarantee you are paid on Friday for the previous week's completed hours. It also allows for the customer you are working with to be billed in a timely manner.
-
While there is currently no function in our time-tracking system to see your total hours worked by project, we encourage all workers to keep track of their hours separately.
