I have an interview tomorrow for a Fractional Controller role and I have no idea how to price myself. The recruiter asked for my hourly rate, and I don't want to lowball myself, but I also don't want to sound delusional. How do you calculate your worth when you no longer have benefits? Do you just double your old hourly rate and hope for the best?

For fractional work, you should actually be charging a premium because you’re providing executive-level oversight without the company having to pay for a full-time executive's overhead.

If you ask for a release, he will either not release you or release with a very bad rating and influence other project managers to not take you into their projects.

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.
