It's been in the news so much that I think they assumed you would not that contractors don't get benefits, like health insurance. Lack of benefits are the reason they are contactors. Period.
- CydeWeys 7y agoNegative, the contractors being discussed in the linked article are actually full time employees of staffing firms. They aren't employed by Google, they're employed by the likes of Adecco. Their healthcare isn't as good as what Google itself offers, granted, but they do have some benefits. There's an incredible amount of conflation here between individuals that are directly contracted to companies (what most of these comments seem to be talking about) and then what actually happens at large corporations (staffing firms that contract out their own employees).
