JOOC Why is hiring contractors a no-no? I have the opposite problem right now -- I'm a contractor being pestered to go W2 and I am resisting as politely as I can. It's actually been a common thing in my career. (here's half of the cash and a dental plan -- uhhh thanks but no?)

Surprised that someone like G would avoid using this as a culture/work fit litmus test and not want to fast-track great contractors.
