The most difficult thing was understanding the salary I was offered. The recruiter (after looking up her credentials on Linkedin) has little to no experience in the recruiting industry and gave me no insight that it would take up to a year for conversion as a temp. WARNING about that - make sure you are asking for your maximum salary because they WILL low ball you and they WILL not reveal the length of time you are stuck as a contractor. Their temp services do include an option to sign up for benefits through the temp agency, but its still expensive. If you want to be working there, as a full time employee, but denied health, stock and all the other FTE perks outside of free meals - make sure you are accurately lobbying for your salary you need. Its really unfair the way they are not transparent about it all. Walk away or negotiate, its not worth being at a job where you are worrying about money instead of worrying about the work you are doing.
