    RBS cancels permie offers

    Just has a call from my mate at RBS they got informed yesterday of the 250 contractors that agreed to switch from contacting to permies and were doing onboarding / some already permie were now all sacked and were all leaving end of February - budget cancelled for new permies


    Anyone affected ?

    My guess: RBS see a flood of new, low-priced ex-contractors who need the work coming onto the market soon.

    ****ers.

        I'm sat here listening to a permie giving their advice on IR35 and it's all wrong. Yesterday they told one person that 'its a day rate. That's automatically a T&M contract and that's inside IR35.' Nothing about working practices, control or MOO, just you charge by the day so that has to be inside
        Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

        I preferred version 1!

          Quite Interesting on Twitter: "When A&W restaurants launched a "third-pounder" to rival McDonald's "quarter-pounder", it failed because most customers thought a third-pounder was smaller and therefore worse value." from yesterday tells you all you need to know about the average person.

          They are thick and know less than they think they do.
