          I think I'll have to stroke them both first. [attempting to get the thread back on track] I know which would cost less to keep, if there's rate freezes and cuts on the horizon!

              Its a new financial yr people. Regardless of the parent in question telling us all there is to be a 10% cutback in contractors over the next yr, projects still need to be completed etc. I've had calls from agents re PWC, HSBC and Citi this week with good roles too. It's looking bouyant in Banking.

                I would if the job was more interesting / challenging, or if I would learn anything new. At the moment none of these apply, and I doubt that my career would benefit in any way - so for that reason I'm out.

                    Sounds ominously like 2001. The first sign is a rate cut. The first one isn't so bad, shut your eyes and grit your teeth so to speak, but then comes the next cut and another one, and then swathes of contractors aren't renewed....

                    Hold on to your hats....
                    I'm alright Jack

                      During a recession - either 1) discount and then discount heavily.
                      or 2) take a vacation and wait for the upturn
