Contract vs Permanent

Let me kick this off real simple;

Your Contracting rates are not the direct equivalent of what you'll be paid as a Permanent employee.

Here in Brisbane, Australia - that's just not going to happen...and sure, I look forward to all the stories of the times it has for you, but you are a very lucky unique snowflake and an exception to the general market that says;

Your Contracting rates are not the direct equivalent of what you'll be paid as a Permanent employee.

There are pros and cons to the whole Permanent vs. Contract arrangement, in my experience here in Brisbane, it really comes down to your personal lifestyle situation and what works for you there.

Stability, longevity, security, premium rates, holiday pay, notice periods etc etc - all considerations to what really works for you as an employee.

If you're interested in where you sit in the market when it comes to rates here in Brisbane - get in touch anytime, we have a salary guide we've developed here I can share with you anytime, as well as discuss specifics and particulars on all things $$$ in the Digital space!
