I’m in pretty much the same boat. It’s a US-based company and they don’t want to keep the UK subsidiary through which I’m working, but my boss convinced them to keep me on as a 1099 employee. So far I haven’t had much of a chance to meet the new bosses or talk turkey, but at least I know someone else who works there already, and they went to bat for me as well. Good to be appreciated at least. Good luck to both of us, it’d be nice to have a little more certainty and stability.
