Then is would appear that you were an employee and not a contractor and should have been issue a W-2 and paid his share of the employment tax.. If you want to maintain a relationship with the company sometimes it is better to just eat the tax yourself and report the income as self-employed income the same as if a 1099-MISC had been provided, otherwise this is the IRS procedure to follow. The IRS can impose fines on the company for failing to follow Federal tax laws and the employer probably will not be happy about it.
See this IRS article that addressed your situation.
