I would suggest starting your own business and invoicing those 5 SMEs. That does not seem like a fun work structure to me. I'd forego the 7h36 min work day then.

Especially if you aren't even using that company's building. Those costs they make do nothing for you. You should invoice as an external party, invoice your building costs to them as well. As they now have a spot open for another employee at their building.

My job is just being an accountant at a Belgian hospital. My boss doesn't even want me to do any overtime unless it's "necessary".

I prefer being at the office, accountancy here has a labour shortage. Main reason is boredom. I won't be able to keep the new juniors on board if I don't entertain them. The department's main problem is people leaving after a couple of months.

When others left, work stacked up. New people feel overwhelmed. They leave. Cycle continues.

i need to be good at accountancy, but more importantly I need to be good with people in order to advance my position within the department.

A potential leadership role in the future won't happen if I sit at home every day.

starting ones own business requires a lot of "unpaid" bizdev, contract management, accounts payable/receivable, plus dealing with PnL, EBITDA, tax, business rates, expenses... and then although I handle the marketing my colleagues handle media appearances, ad deck bidding optimization, Gartner analyst relations, and I have direct reports to manage CRM/ERP integrations and graphic design. It's just not a 1:1.

Depends on the country. Where I live it's beneficial to start your own company once your income reaches 10k euros a month. Being an employee here is for the sake of security. Unemployment benefits, difficulty to be fired. Parent leave. Shocks during an economic crisis are absorbed by the company.

There's pros and cons to each. But if you are handling 5 SME's. Working productively all the time. From your own home. Then I'm guessing it can be beneficial for yourself to start your own company.

With such a job, you'll likely have a safety buffer in your finances for the unpaid period. No clue why there'd be an unpaid period though, you already have your connections.

Once again.. easier here in Belgium. Taxes on labour are quite high, becoming an independent can cost the company less money while putting more money on the independent's bank account.

A lot of people here complaining about the taxes, but unwilling to give up the security of employment
