Contractors, what is your biggest problem at work?

Many contractors have problems with agencies : they can pay late, try to reduce your fee, make renewing contracts difficult. Agents aren't on your side, of course, they're just trying to make as much money as they can. This often leads to friction, as your interests may not be the same as theirs.

Why don't you share your problems with the rest of us?
