Agency Payment Terms

[MrMarkyMark]

Yeah, I do wish that was easier to come by. Paid holiday and sick leave is nice, but I rather doubt I'd get the same rate that comes with that.

You wouldn't want it. Rubbish rate guaranteed.
i.e. none of the benefits of contracting, same rate as perm (sometimes lower), no job security.

Unsure about performance reviews when in FTC

Of course you wouldn't. Any more than you would get paid the same as a permie as you would as a contractor.

Wouldn't life be easier though? I think £50k is a more viable minimum wage as well, but I know it's unlikely to get much traction...

[WTFH]

If the minimum wage were £50k, you know what, the price of everything would go up.


How do you pay shop staff £50k a year without putting up the price of goods in the shop?
How do you pay factory cleaners £50k a year without increasing your costs?
