[Xenophon]

I demanded that I be made a director and to be the highest paid member of staff when I joined my current company. The pay is rubbish though, but the company is growing very nicely since I joined.

MF has stopeed posting. Does that mean he is starting to act like a permie and do some work so that he secures the gig.

[sasguru]

In the current market, you definitely need to be asking for more than your contract rates to make up for:

1) PDP stuff : +2k (my estimates)
2) Politics : +3K
3) Increased working hours 'to show commitment' (let's say 3 hrs extra a week @40/hr) : + 6k
4) discount the 'perks' such as pension contribution, insurance, to what you would pay on the open market. A third reduction is probably a good rule of thumb
5) Increased tax liabilities: ~20%

So, your 85k contract should be ~ 110k permie

I'm in a similar position with a permie offer in the offing.

I'm currently trying to work out what my contract is worth to compare. Does this look reasonable:

Day rate: £400
Days worked per year: 230

Total Gross: 400 x 230 = £92000 (say 90k)

Guaranteed expenses:
5400 (train ticket)
1000 (accounting)
600 (other)

90000 - 7000 = £83k

75-80% seems the going rate for take home of contract value:
£62k (75%)
£66k (80%)


So, now I just need to work out how much a permie wage needs to be to return a better take home. Anyone got a link to a permie calculator?

Bah! Paupers the bunch of you.

You need to combine the wealth of Bill Gates, Richard Branson and the IKEA owner to make him look like a decent guy.
