Permie Offer

[MarillionFan]

Just been offered to go permie on my present contract. I have waded in with a 100k salary expectation, car and share options.

They are considering it and will let me know shortly.

Weren't you on 350 a day???? Where are those companies which offer more to permies than contractors? Or are you including 20k of rubbish pension, 20k of useless insurances, 20k of never-to-be-seen bonus and 40k basic salary?

same here, they asked me for salary expectations but I said I would rather let them offer first.......I want to see if they are serious plus I know what the senior management earn here and I want at least on a par with them + the 30k budget for a car.........I will accept 65k+10 % bonus+car to jump from a 350 per day contract....oh yeah with the opt out of any PDP related bullsh**

350 * 200 days (a good rule of thumb) = 70k contracting

65k +6.5 = 71.5 k permie

Who wouldn't jump? Problem is that a normal permie salary for someone who is on 350 is generally 45-50k unfortunately (but then again there must be some companies who aren't that good at maths...).

i would not. any permanent job offering me a tempting wage & benefits is going to have me travelling to the same sort of places that i am at now but with added-in shed loads of politics and powerpoints. i just don't see the advantage of jumping at someone else's beck and call just so i can have a new silver audi a4 in a long stay carpark.

becoming a permie allows the client to use all of my skill set instead of just the dev side, they are reluctant to see me team leading, mentoring and client facing as a contractor so the two roles are not the same.....hence the slight increase, not just rubbish maths

MF at 10K pa you are overvalued. Bite their hands off.

[ChimpMaster]

I would go permanent for 200k a year.

I might go permanent for 80k a year if my contract ends as rumoured later this year.
