Is it safe leaving your full time role for a temp-to-perm role at a place offering much more? Does temp-to-perm mean you will get hired after the temp period is over, or is there a chance you will not get a perm/full time offer? Any insights appreciated!

It’s a risk, because full time is full time, but temp-to-full time means perhaps they’re not sure about you, or they’re not sure about their needs/budget. Not saying it’ll go bad, but it’s a step removed from a full time offer.

And keeping your current full time role may result in you working two full time jobs. I assume they didn’t open this temp to perm role with the intent of only needing someone for 10 hours per week.

That makes sense. A recruiter approached me saying their needs are temp-to-perm, so I’m wondering if it’s budget related even though she had mentioned the temp hourly and FT salary if hired. Thank you, this helps!

At the rate this economy is going, isn’t full-time basically freelance with benefits? One can get laid off at any time 🫤

*Also* has anyone kept their full time role while working a temp-to-perm? I’m thinking temp portion is practically freelance but correct me if I’m wrong.

I did it. I did the math; the higher pay would be the same as sticking to my old job plus 6 months of not having to work at all. I figured 6 months was enough time to get a new gig in case the full-time didn’t happen. I got the job, after 11 months of being a temp.

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time

I have an associate's degree in graphic design and work designing wedding stationery. I've been at my company since 2016, and am now a design consultant - speaking to customers directly and creating custom artwork and designs for them. I know I'm underpaid (50k/year in the SF Bay Area) but I thought the benefits and stability were worth it. I'm now severely burnt out (most of my team is) and not sure which way to go, or how to grow. Any tips/advice?
