You work direct mostly.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI never get my contracts reviewed.
My direct contracts tend to be nicely drafted - a few of them have been like the PCG template so haven't been reviewed.
The majority of agency contracts I've had are dreadful. They have meaningless phrases put in by someone who must have limited reading comprehension skills, they try to get my company to indemnify them against the world and his wife, and the numberings do not make sense."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
