Career advise
I am currently working in a service based company, but I directly work with the client team.
Is it advisable for me to ask them to employ me directly? Is it something they can do
Got an offer from one of the top professional IT service companies for a FMCG giant asy client on 3rd party payroll. The role is the exact fit according to my career trajectory. Everything happened within a span of 5 days. Tried bypassing by applying directly but the posting was removed the day I appeared in the first round of the interview. Connecting, cold mail, nothing worked for direct application so I was considering getting a chance through this route. But what's surprising, I was informed within 20 mins of the final evaluation that I was selected - 6 months contract. I need to immediately report at the office in a week - 1.5 months and then I can ask for WFH. Post that contract period, I will be working in the company payroll directly. I have to source a laptop for work, 3P payroll will reimburse the amount, health insurance will be provided by the 3P payroll - said the PoC. When I press about the contract letter and terms, she keeps saying that it's a full time opportunity like I'm slow. I had to clarify the definition to her. All of this completely verbal exchange. They're in a hurry to just get over the formalities. I have documented things clearly to avoid missing anything and they should release the contract letter tomorrow.
Is it even advisable to relocate and work in such a situation?
If you are in Job currently, then Never switch to any such contract based jobs, lots of wiggle room for them to play with you.
I did this , its all lies , best case is they keep extending the contract etc , you wil always be a outsider and never be a full time employee with benefits and will be first to layoffed in case of budget issues. Basically you are a used condom. They told same shit to me and even after 2 years i was in contract , and my designation never changes in that 2 years and i was let go as i was not full timer .
My advice... Don't Join...already did this mistake and it does not end well
