Does anyone work at #Isobar? Any thoughts about it?

I got a contractor offer to be a data analyst contractor at Isobar with "high likelihood of FTE conversion".

I'm already a contractor, at #Coinbase. I took the contractor job @ CB originally bc it paid 50% more than my original FT job which I hated. CB, it's in HR and that's not my passion. I also am feeling like I'm everyone's little taskrabbit for doing survey platform things here. @Isobar would pay a 20% more.. is it worth it?

I think it's worth it for the salary raise, but the odds of you being converted to full time is a bit iffy. Here's why:
- slowdown in advertising will definitely impact isobar, even though they're more"Digital"and less of a traditional agency
- Agencies are owned by holding companies that function on the basis of maintaining and expanding margin. Their likelihood to convert you depends on their pipeline drafting healthy. If things were to remain as frothy as they've been, it's be an easy conversion. But that seems less the case for the back half of 202.
- Agencies maintain a ton of contractor workers, generally. Easier to cut down and a manage costs.

Easiest way to think about it is that they bring you as a contractor to see how you'll perform. What you should ask them is:
- what are the factors to convert to FTE?
- what's the time line?
- How about the rest of the data analysis team? Are they Contractors too?

Hot take, for those who received a stimulus based on FY19 or FY18 returns why doesn’t the government make people pay it back in the FY20 return if they don’t qualify based on the actual tax year stimulus was for? I understand why they couldn’t wait but IrS knows who received it so it isn’t hard to implement. Could have used the anticipated saving coming back to fund more stimulus for those who truly needed it.
