"Convert your contractors"
Ha. Unfortunately he doesn't explain how, which of course is the difficult part.
I'm currently contracting myself and I love it. I get paid high daily rates, have no commitment other than the project I'm working on and I can move on with only a weeks notice. Please explain me how you are going to convert me. How is it going to be worth taking a pay cut and not be the final technical decision maker within your business?
- jheitzeb 16y agoWell, at some point you become so enthralled with the project and the company that you want to be a part of it vs. thining of yourself as a paid agent doing a job. And if not, you probably aren't a fit and wouldn't get the offer in the first place (at least not in my experiences)
- pan69 16y agoSo, I'm a contractor and I'm enthralled with the project and the company (which is kinda the position I'm in right now). The company loves this and wants me to stay on full-time, I'd love to stay. However, why would I take a pay cut and why would I take a step back in "rank". Staying on as a contractor I can still work on my enthralled project.. What sort of bargaining can the company perform? What can you offer a contractor you don't want to lose to become full-time?
- jheitzeb 16y agoWell, for you there would be equity upside (vs. contractors that typically get zero) and the chance to gain more responsibility (vs. contractors that typically aren't allowed to manage budget or people)
