I am so jealous of IT contractor !! they make so much money !

ysun062

Once I saw a IT contrator (who sits next to me, do exactly the same work as me) payslip, I was shocked to see he/she is getting 7000 a week !!!

that means if he/she work for 40 week in a year, that is 280k per year !!

It makes me feel worthless....

....Contractor要有Contractor的水平。。不是谁都能当Contractor的

Corec

或者起码你要有能忽悠别人让你当contractor的能力。。。

contractor跟普通的employee是不一样的，contractor就是报酬高，但不稳定，今天有活明天不一定有活，而且没有sick leave 和 annual leave. 不能从他一周报酬看到他一年的收入的！

$7000 per week is about $175 per hour.

I know programmers won't get that much. Unless your company is dumb...

Well, i would say 80% contractors out there are working more than 40 week per year... I know this guy who worked at a company for 10 years as a contractor !

True, they dont have sick leave and annual leave.. but thats very little compare with the amount of money they are earning..

I think its around 150 per hour, since he/she might have done some overtime... but anyways, and yes, my company is dump.... and most other companies out there are dump, they all hire those contractors for exceptional high rate....

and yes,, java/.net programmers wont get that much,,, but vender specific programmers get the 150 to 200 rate..

我见过PAY这么高的CONTRACTOR，但是真的是很厉害，这样的人是那种系统当了后，除了他们别人扶不起来的主儿。
而且要有很好的人际关系网络的，CONTRACTOR的工作PAY的高也同样不稳定，当然那些一下子作几年的例外，那是强人。

我听说过的最高的是1500 + GST一天。。。而且是两年前的事儿了，现在不知道多少了。

牙医做的ok的话，一年收入也有40多万。。。哎

四年前我们公司聘的contractor就是 150／hour，做 .net

那种contractor就跟外面软件公司一样， 只不过公司就他一个人而已。一年52周，如果每周每天都有40hour的话，他就不用自己当contractor了。 当10年的contractor 拿的 rate 一般跟full time employee一样， 当contractor只是为了逃税而已。

无过

LS正解，我以前的公司contractor也是那么高，我记得是做TM1的，同时还在AIS教书~~~最大的好处就是能够逃一部分的税

icecreamshop

所谓的逃税值得是把自己平时一些开销所作工作上面，但对收入这么高的人来说，一年交10万税以上，光靠这种逃税是九牛一毛的。必须还有其他渠道才行，投资房，LAQC公司才是真正的退税法宝

"当contractor只是为了逃税而已" - true
