Another pro for contracting: some tax advantages.
But be careful of navigating the "Alienation of personal services" rules
where you can be deemed an employee for tax purposes if certain
conditions apply. Ask your accountant.

I'm looking for a new job and am trying to determine whether a permanent
position or contracting would be best. I've never contracted in Australia
before and am considering it as an option.
Here are the pros and cons of each as far as I can tell.
Permanent
Long term job security (arguable?)
Superannuation included (a con if super is not a priority at the moment?)
Contract
Short term job security only
No super
But a higher remuneration
Greater variety of work?
Any other pros and cons?
Do you have a preference? If so, why?
While I'm at it, what do you think is a fair contract rate for a good CF
developer with seven years experience? I don't know if I'm good or not
but that's what I'm telling everyone else ;)
Apologies if you think I should post this on CFJobs
Thanks!
Nathan
