I contracted once decades ago, and have worked with some folks who had been on "direct contract" for 10+ years (by choice). You'll work the numbers and figure it out...just don't let an intermedfiary make as much as you do off the deal imo. Good luck...
One of the many questions that I have, and part of the reason for this thread. I'm meeting with them next week, and plan to have a long written list of questions. Your comment about being "significantly" higher does validate my initial thoughts, as there should be some reward for the increased risk.
