I'm not sure if this is allowed since this subreddit is more oriented towards criticism, but I feel like people here would be savvy towards getting taken advantage of so I wanted to at least see if I could get an opinion from a few different people.
I have a new job now. My previous employer is offering me a contracting opportunity for 10 hours a month. I've never done anything like this before. What are some tips I should know about especially in the tech field (both my jobs are smaller companies, current is a nonprofit and my former one is a start up). Also, how should I set my rate?
