I’m not sure how they’ve come up with this but it’s a company who are mostly based in India and all this is coming from there. I seem to get told different things over the phone to what I get in emails when I push for confirmation, all a bit odd. They think they are paying me a high enough salary to cover my own expenses but seeing as the 1st project they’d put me on is 100 miles from home (inc the M25) then I’d have to stay over and I guess my costs could be around £1,500 / month. As travel could be anywhere in the UK I’d be leaving myself open to some high costs.
It could be a good role but I might be getting another job offer tomorrow which would cover expenses no question so maybe I’ll be taking that. I think it will also have more than the 20 days holiday given by the 1st company which seems rather mean! Just have to see what salary they come up with.
These are permie roles, seems they fix price their projects – or at least don’t charge expenses to the client.
