Inconvénients
As a variable time employee, you are paid based on the number of billable work hours you log per week. Long-term projects with stable clients is like gold. If you can get on a long-term project, you are set. Otherwise, you're on the bench or working just a few hours here and there. It's feast or famine and if you have not experienced that type of environment or are not used to the ups and downs of contract work, you will quickly become dissatisfied. Working remotely can make it difficult to connect with other Intrepid employees and get timely communication about what's going on in the company. You can feel disconnected at times.
