UBER DOOMED !!!

I went permie a few weeks back - love it! Paid rain, hail or shine and the work's a doddle. Salary is tasty, as are the perks. Lovely!

what made you go permie oracleslave, have you noticed a big change in the market? I haven't been keeping too close an eye, but my feeling was the Oracle market was still decent, with rates slightly lower.

Combination of a load of things, some of them personal/lifestyle related which I won't get into. From a work perspective:

Am tired of doing delivery work myself. It now bores me. The permanent move was a chance to manage a delivery team so saw in it a good opportunity for me.

Rates wise I was on my best ever for a 3 month contract before going permie so I think they are holding up. I do think there are a lot less contracts out there though so those contractors that are half decent should be fine. Some of the not so good or experienced ones I think might struggle for the next little while.
