I'm working as an independent contractor and am being paid $100/hr. I pay my own medical and taxes. Company wants to hire me as an employee with full benefits. What should I expect to be paid. 2. I'm working as a subcontractor, and am being paid $100/hr. I am paying my own medical and taxes. I find out that the company that hold the contract is pimping me out for $200/hr. Company (one that I'm working at) wants to hire me as a full time employee with full benefits. (Assume that if I know my billing rate that the company would know my paid rate.) What should I expect to be paid? 3. Combination of the two above. Only change is that the company I am subcontracting thru wants be to become a full time employee. Should I be expecting $100/hr + benefits or a lesser amount (how much) + benefits? A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

An HR person spends a lot of time determining that. A division boss who wants to hire a contractor to do a temporary task does not. Apples and Oranges. thanx, bill Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free american and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 50 years. meep

What should I expect as an offer?". Then we seemed to wander all over, so I listed three scenerios. Based on the scenerio, what should someone expect? A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. (Herm Albright)
