Has anyone here intentionally gone from employee to contractor? I am looking for some

[seaglass]

5. Thank you. I believe my question was not completely clear. Currently I work from home

and I might be willing to work as a contractor for my current employer.

This might seem an odd approach, but basically my employer does not consistently have enough projects to fill 40 hrs a week for me. So my time is filled with other non-project related tasks or with nothing.

I would be willing to maybe work as a contractor for my company on projects only. So for instance right now I have a 2 month project, when that is over and there is no other project forthcoming my contract would be done. If another project came up a few months from now, they could call me to see if I'd work it. They might hire a FT employee in the meantime.

I work for a small company and know that I am underpaid as my previous PM position paid 20K more annually with more and better benefits. I am looking to determine what % increased hourly pay I should ask for.
