Hi, I received an offer from a consultancy ( third level ) to join as a senior developer ( content management ) . Yoe-10 Hourly rate -80 Client- Walgreens Location - Chicago, IL No benefits Am new to w2 contracts and am wondering if this is worth it? Or should I renegotiate? What would be the ideal number that I could ask
They need to compensate you for having to pay for your own benefits and you need to a 1099 not a W2, W2 means your an employee and employees get benefits
But what rate should I look for ? Just to understand the ball park? How are the contracting rates in the US! Is 80 on the lower end for Chicago?
Under W2, if the hourly rate is 80/hr, will we be paid for the stat holidays or just for the hours of work done
$80 on W2 equates to ~$160k per year. Minus health, vaca and other benefits probably closer to 140. What's the yearly salary you would accept for the role?
I do not know what to expect. Just need to understand if 140k is a decent salary in Chicago
It is but you should get benefits with W2 or else you are 1099

A lot of people here serve money and not God
"No benefits" - now ask yourself the question again.
Am new to the US market, so am not sure what to look for.
