Has come up. Not so sure about the 18 month thing I must admit...
I'm sure we've all had 3 monthers where they'd said 3-6 months max and then been there years. But not sure about kicking off with 18 months to start with.
Yes it shows intend/budget from client for NOW but things change. You can bet a pound to a pinch of tulip that they will have a notice period in there so the 18 month is hardly providing anything at all.
In fact, I'd say its probably a disadvantage because we'll see if they want an 18 month commitment with no notice period on contractor side. Agent at the moment is indicating this.
3 months I have no problem with. If it turns out to be a dogs dinner you can choose not to renew. But 18 months where you can't leave but they can can you doesnt sound too great to me.
Rate is not brilliant and, of course, runs over April 2016 when, as we all know, things change, so there is no chance for an increase to take into account.
Anything else I've forgotten?
