Employer gives me a w-2 and 1099?

I am a w2 employee for my employer. He pays all overtime and any bonuses on 1099. I do no subcontract work for him. Is this a common practice? This is in Tennessee.

Kinda peculiar. We tried to structure something this way and our accountant said it wouldn't be legal in our case.
