In reality most people fail to take any holidays apart from about 2 weeks a year. A few then disappear for 4 to 6 months after 4+ years working for the company.

unlimited paid time off policy? what does that even mean?
Sure probably the yearly figure sounds nice but what price do you put on your soul?

OK enough gloating.
On your way out, please return you logins, radiator key, and your travelodge atlas.
Then take one each of the pamphlets:
"Take no prisoners - A deputy assistant supervisor explains how he climbed the greasy pole in just over 30 years"
"Yes boss! - How to embrace servitude with 3 easy rules"

With the company I work for, all the directors and most of the staff are ex-contractors.

Many companies don't even hire ex-contractors as permie.

12 years of freelancing and contracting, 400+ invoices, just sent the last one. Officially becoming employed by current client from next week after they sorted out their international hiring issues (they are using a UK-based employer of record). A list of paperwork and tasks left relating to closing the company down but that's it for now!
It feels a bit weird to be honest.Tags: None
