An average developer outside of London is paid £45k, which is massively less than £350 a day.
Cwjobs reckons contractors are on £93k avg while full time employees are on £52k avg, including London.
That's not even close.

- alkonaut 8y ago45k is a salary and 350/day is a contract. The former I assume contains some job security, paid vacation, sick days etc. I’d probably charge twice my current daily income if I switched to contracting and still not feel it was a great deal.
- badpun 8y agoThe real kicker in the UK are contractors’ taxes, which are much lower than full timers’. It really makes little financial sense to work a full time job.
