      So you're just a Senior now?

          Now known as Technical BA's.

          This will likely change next year.

              Guys on £850 a day as contractors

              Question:

              Is that the rate the agency are billing them at or the gross rate the contractor is billing the agency?

              If the latter, a ~£130K package is not far off a £550 day rate (allowing £300 for the agency)...

                £850 to the contractors

                Can’t pay them £130K as that’s program directors salary and they would be outside the pay scale £92K is the highest of the high for the band so would never increase either

I would expect the top 10% of BAs to be on an extra £10k to £15k above the average. Those roles will likely not emerge for another year as colonies attempt to hoover up excessive numbers of discounted ex-contractors.
                  I used to work for a top consultancy. The BA’s were very good. We used to go to other company’s and mentor their BA’s as part of the deal.

                  I agree. 90% of BA’s are terrible.

                    I thought today was supposed to be some type of deadline about what options you wanted to pick for next year?
                    I had a very brief chat with someone a couple of weeks ago who didn't know much and was just reading off a script. I've had no response since about options, rates, salaries, umbrellas etc?

                    Seems quite a few are in a similar boat. For all the noise Lloyds have made about valuing a flexible workforce, in practice they are treating that workforce with contempt.

                    Everything has gone deathly quiet the past 2 or 3 weeks since the initial announcement.

                    Very poor.

                      It is, I’ve had several conversations
                      "why ride a vespa when you can push a lambretta?"

                      As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see "the River Tiber foaming with much blood."
