Looks like I will go permie with client - best option for me. Package not terrible.
Looking to minimise risk, so have asked for a written assurance that I will be moved from Project A in BU 1 to Project B in BU 2, before I will sign proffered employment contract.
In theory they could just leave me on Project A once I sign employment contract, assurances or no. I suppose I could just leave if that happened.
Hoping that this written assurance will have some value if the GSK incident from last year is scaled up. Not convinced tho. I suspect our dear friends at HMRC would ignore it and focus on facts rather than intentions.
As is most of this, would be an interesting thought experiment if it didn't mess with my life so heavily.
Will not be staying with client in the same role / project as I think that's asking for trouble.
Have already worded up Project A business sponsor to the situation. They offered an "overpaid" permie role which was nice, but not so overpaid that it was worth the risk imho. I will go with less well paid on Project B.Comment
