+1 for the politics. As a contractor developer/BA/PM you get paid a premium for your expertise and opinion which means you tend to get listened to. Most of the time you can be on more money than the senior management team, and if they p*ss you off, you know you only have to put up with it a few more months.
Where do I find that type of contracting? xD In a previous role I was a 'contractor' but at the end of the day I was doing regular coding and the whole thing was basically waterfall...
I'm in the UK so I find most if my roles on Jobserve via agencies (coz I'm too lazy to do my own marketing)
I've also been doing this for 30 years so life experience has some effect.
Specialisation and nicheing down also helps. Front end is not a niche. Responsive design using React and tailwind for designing affro-carribean mobile hairdressing websites is a niche.
