Do I Value Freedom and Independence?


Am I Agency-Captive or Agency-Free?

  • Agencies Disfranchise Contract Employees

    • Perhaps the fastest growing segment of the American workforce is a distinct class of temporary workers called contract employees.

    • Contract employees are highly skilled and highly compensated temporary workers employed by various types of staffing agencies and other third-party employers of record.

    • For a variety of valid reasons companies want their independent contractors to go through an employer of record, but going through a traditional staffing agency disfranchises Contract Professionals from the tax advantages of self-employment, limits them to mediocre health and retirement benefits, and seriously eats into their potential earnings.

    • This process converts independent contractors into disfranchised contract employees by pressuring them to work for greedy and avaricious staffing agencies in order to qualify for contract assignments at client companies.

  • What About Gatekeepers?

    • P.A.C.E. prefers to contract directly with the client, as opposed to subcontracting through an intermediary, but that's not always possible.

    • Some companies employ gatekeepers (e.g., vendor management services, onsite vendors, preferred vendors, and other names) to manage their contingent workforce. P.A.C.E. works with gatekeepers... It is a fact of life in this industry.

    • What we don't like is when we have to subcontract through a greedy, predatory, and adversarial contract employment agency. We prefer that you avoid using third-party recruiting firms and their ilk whenever possible.

    • We will subcontract through contract employment agencies. This is often the case with rookie contractors who haven't yet learned to market themselves effectively to client companies. It's just that we prefer not to.

    • When P.A.C.E. contracts directly with your client we are in the best position to represent you as your employer of record. Middlemen just get in the way.
