$200/hr is $400k a year. i doubt you’ll get that. i would ask for $180/hr. not sure what is actually realistic - hopefully you can get $160/hr.

This doesn’t feel like a difficult math problem..
Make sure to consider all the out of pocket costs (health, no 401k, etc.)

SM level

180 is effectively 90/hr without benefits. An organization I used to work with used to use 21.6% as estimate for benefits. That should cover your extras.
90/hr +20%=108/hr (Effectively 216k/yr)
90/hr +25% =112.5/hr. (Effectively 225k/yr)

Doing hourly without benefits they should expect paying some premium. If you are going through a staffing firm expect them to toss on 35+ percent margin which you never see.

SC 1 Good point that most contract positions aren't leading to a FTE role and assume more risk than try to buy situation. Also they wouldn't know your salary requirements for comparison.

My query is specific to position of SE 1 @ SE2

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?
