When this ruling came out the naive reading seemed to me to rule out most software engineer consulting/contracting in California. Will be interesting to see how this pans out.
(Of course, many "contractors" are actually employees of a contracting company, but much true freelancing seems incompatible with this law).
- Gibbon1 7y ago> but much true freelancing seems incompatible with this law. If you're a true freelancer with multiple clients you have generally nothing to worry about. In the past I've had clients where I ended up just working on their stuff and after a few years they ended up just hiring me full time. That is totally normal for non sleazy companies. Then you have companies that try to get out of paying the costs associated with normal employees. These companies are all skeazy and deserve to get slapped.
