      Appraisals
      Just to rub salt in the wound;

      KPIs
      360 degree appraisal

          That's about 50p after all the taxes and NI if you can't deduct luxury hotels and restaurants from tax.

            was it an appraisal or was it the old "I've had enough and leaving meeting"

              Er!

              All travel, hotel & subsistance expenses paid when working away from home incl 45p per mille when using my own car.

              I also manage my own workload.

              and I know when my salary goes into my account every month, I don't have to worry about IR35 any more or whether my accounts are in on time. or investigations from Mr Revenue.

              I don't have to worry about contracts or going to interviews.

              I was a contractor for many years and trust me, I am far more relaxed where I am now.

              Easy

              Mind you, if this job went south and I couldn't find an equivalent position I would go back to contracting (Reluctantly).

                  You're beginning to sound like Sasguru.


                  Sorry, that was unnecessary.

                      Enjoy bending over at anal reviews. A rent boy could also earn what you earn, doesn't mean one would want to do it.

                      I am earning a bag of cash while working on my plan B as I haven't go anything to do at the moment.
