Turned down contract
You read that right.
550 per day = 67k perm, when IR35 / bench / travel costs are included. By my calculation.
Perm = 75k + bonus. So choose permComment

Dude I totally disagree with you there unless your bench time is like for a year in between contracts.
I would always take 550 a day over 67k ......... always...... even in the middle of a recession.
But lest I be accused of pi$$ing on your parade, then let me congratulate you.Last edited by NeverBeenNorthOfTheM25; 2 February 2010, 11:17.Comment

Of course, you are all only looking at the financial side of things. I've taken a rate cut to move gigs because I am bored out of my head.
