Originally posted by rl4engc View PostI was once sent a dev role where they were offering £80/day, I respectfully replied to the agent that I could probably earn more stacking shelves at B&Q.

They will only be left with permies to do these sh*t work/rates, or offer it to Big Consultancies (but that will come with its own costs)
Seriously, I was expecting the the ClientCos will be worried about the IR35 changes more than the contractors themselves, since it will kill the flexible workforce that they enjoy now (especially at these throw away rates that they expect work to be done!).. but they seem to be in void about all this.Comment
