Good afternoon, I am currently contracting at a great firm that is probably going to offer me a permanent position in the near future. I am contracting through an agency, which I know for a fact has a limited mark-up due to the number of people the agency places here, but I don't know the mark-up percentage.
My question is, what percentage of my contracting income is it reasonable to ask for as permanent income? One of my peers here actually got a smidgen more when she rolled permanent, but I don't know what her contract rate was. I really want to work for them and I will probably use my wish to telecommute as a bargaining tool, (this firm is totally into telecommuting), so I have some wiggle room. I just don't know if 70% is reasonable or 90%. I live in the Tampa Bay area, if that helps at all. Thanks for any info, reference, resources, war stories, or good, clean jokes you can provide, Kathryn ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
