The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist -
Ex contractor perspective
I would leave. 3 things got me down about contracting :
The ever increasing shopping list of skills, being inversely proportional to rate.
The dumbing down of agents - new influx of green wet behind the ears thick numpty bastards.
The increasing tendency of clients to treat you as a temp.
I rather suspect Her Majesty's government have started a skills drain in the public sector and things have to get worse before they can get better. A few high profile cluster****s ought to do it.Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.Comment

But the client you do project work for would pay £400 a day to keep you for 2+ more months... Almost certainly putting you within IR35 due to their lack of understanding of the issues would you renew or leave?Warning unicorn meat may give you hallucinationsComment

Originally posted by motoukenin View PostIf inside IR35 you will also be responsible for Employers NI as well, which is uncapped above about 150 quid, so gets very expensive, all of the calculations I have seen suggest double the rate when you take into consideration the increased taxes, Employers NI , Employees NI and Expenses. The 20% UK gov has suggested is based on you being inside IR35 before and after but even then doesn't make sense above 350 per day.
FTC sounds a better option than inside IR35.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

One PS manager was demoted by them putting another layer of management on top of him. He applied for and got another job within a month of that happening. He had come from the private sector and lasted just over a year."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

I'm not au fait with the new rules but the big issue is that if you stay, they may deem your past work to be inside IR35 or otherwise penalise you?
Is there a 3rd option to consider: work with them via an umbrella for a couple of months or so NOT through YourCo Ltd? Would that distance things enough to avoid the potential problems? I have absolutely no idea how umbrella take-home compares to inside-IR35 though.
