Eps 9: Corporate vs Freelance - Talking HTML

July 16, 2015

Welcome to Talking HTML, an audio/video internet thing for web developers who are just starting out

 

Today is the cost-benefit analysis of working in a corporate setting versus working for yourself

 

 

 

Corporate

Positives

* Constant income
* Relatively Consistent work schedule
* Work stays at work
* No working cost

* Computer
* Monitors
* Random supplies

Negatives

* Work for someone else

* Answer to a boss

* Work looks the same ~ no change in scenery
* No matter how much or how hard you work you are stuck at a salary or hourly wage

Self employed /start up

Positives

* Create your own hours
* Ability to work on the projects you want to work on
* You can charge what you want

Negatives

* No set schedule, work follows you

* If you don't work you don't get paid ~ can make for long work days

* Equipment costs money!

* Computer, software, extra monitors, peripherals

* You are responsible for finding your own work
