Greeting all,
I had to send this message, especially for the AX Developers in the US that
some companies are advertising to hire developers for permanent (full time)
position. In fact, most of them are not true for permanent positions,
especially around these days. They are usually hiring to clean up their
messes..
Two friends of mine who were good developers were hired recently and after 2
months they were laid off.
In the US most states are "at will" states. They can let you go anytime any
moment without warning you, of course, you can leave your job as well anytime
any moment. But the weight is on their site.
Here are some suggestions:
1. Make sure, make a good agreement for the 3 months period (probation) that at
least your job guaranteed for this period
2. Make sure you get into their health benefits and 401K at the start. Do not
accept any other temporary agreement which makes the difficult to fire you
3. Some of the consulting companies made agreements for the companies that you
cannot touch or alter their layers. For instance the VAR layer belongs to the
consulting a company. What it means basically you are at the mercy of that
consulting company, which is the bottom line.
Good luck.
Dinkar
