I've been getting $80-$100 per hour for several years. It depends on what I'm doing and for whom as to the rate.

Got my hours cut to 32/wk... still have bennies, but.... I think the end may be near. This company is less than half the size it was when I started here last August (from 225 to 100). Already lined up a consulting gig for the folks I used to work for. The guy that was there before me does some work for them and I know what he charges so I know they are willing to pay at least that much... but I think I'll charge about 60% of that with some strict rules about payments and availability and such... Anyways - for those of you that do consulting work, are your rates holding up or are you finding yourself having to lower them just to get the work? I'm pretty sure I'll be hanging out my consulting shingle soon and I might need a reality check... TIA, Matt Jarvis Programmer/DBA King | Retail Solutions 541-349-8512 Electronic Privacy Notice.
