Q: What happens when you try to force your contractors into perm roles?

[MrLoveBucket]

PF were a client of mine for 6 months until March this year. At that point it was very clear the IT side of the changes were never going to work. The most fooked programme I've ever seen.
I already planned to get out of there at renewal time. Happily this was accelerated when they gave notice on my (direct) contract and told me to re-engage through their new preferred agency, who promptly offered me a rate cut. (Incidentally the same agency who had done that to me on my very first contract - I sucked it up at the time.) Thanks ReThink!

...they gave notice on my (direct) contract and told me to re-engage through their new preferred agency...

Why would any client want to do that? Paying an agency fees they don't need to? No wonder they've gone down the pan. The reads like a manual of how not to run a company.
