"An advantage of being a consultant is that you are paid for all the hours you work, and employees often work more than 8 hours per day. Also, the assumption that employees are paid less in return for permanence and consultants are paid more for being temporary is something of a fallacy. I've often seen employees cut faster than consultants, and being paid more I am better prepared to be unemployed."
