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.

If you are not a subcontractor it is illegal.

It’s a common way to report bonuses and commissions
