I'm actually a W2 through an agency, so the other half of my FICA is covered by the agency. The agency also provides some health insurance.

This does kind of resonate with me. I'm kind of restless now having been working on the same project for a year.

I don't think the benefits adds up to a 40K difference a year. As I said, I get health insurace, but no 401k matching. If I got something like 10% 401k matching I'd get about $400 per pay period ($400 * 12 = 4800).

I'm worried that these salary guys are going to be in some wildly better position in 10+ year because they committed to a company. But I don't really see how they will be.

Thank you so much for the response.
