RE: Field Nation
I too have been getting more through FN than anywhere else lately. There are a great many WOs at absurd lowball prices that I just decline out of hand, but I do have a good relationship with a small number of buyers, and they are responsive to the concerns of the techs. The forum software sucks, though, and I think most of those folks should come on over to FF and talk here. 🙂
Close to the top
The majority of WO’s I see in my area are posted at substandard pricing, almost as bad as FS. The is one buyer on there, calls for Keefe Commissary, that has decent pricing. But the volume is very low. They pay on time but I am leery of their system. Some techs have apparently been stiffed due to the process they use – eg close the WO asking for a SLI rather than request the SLI and close it after receiving the SLI.
ok
decent if in a low-tech area, but most calsl are WAY under priced — only ok if you get loyal buyers.
Field Nation
Low ball work for a lot of time on site. Normally won’t even answer a conditional offer……
RE: Field Nation
Lots of low priced WO’s. Buyers never respond to any offers or messages sent to them.
**UPDATE** 27FEB12
I seem to have found a sweet spot at Field Nation. Have been getting more work from here than any other platform and at very good rates.
Room for improvement
The level of pay is getting better in some area’s but as a general rule, low pay for high skill.
The bulk of the buyers will never respond to any questions or even offers on the work.
There is no other way to contact the buyers to even discuss conditional offers on the way outside the platform
Nothing going on here
No work orders up to 250 miles of 06517 ever.
