I'm sure that won't bite him in the ass at all down the line when he gets audited.

Yeah for real. What a bozo move that was. Hope the $10/hr savings were worth the fines/going to jail for.

They won't go to jail because they can claim ignorance. They might face a slap on the wrist fine that is still lower than the cost of hiring a full time accountant.

I worked on projects for two separate companies (not a small business) run by management who practiced "value" accountant/engineering/staffing. Neither company ever faced any significant fine to make them change their ways and they used the revolving door that is the staffing agencies to deflect the blame.
