A sample conversation with this agent

What's our fully loaded cost per employee?
Average fully loaded cost per employee: $178K. Breakdown: Base compensation: $130K (73%), Benefits (health, dental, vision): $18K (10%), Payroll taxes: $10K (6%), 401k match: $5.2K (3%), Equity/RSU amortization: $8K (4%), Office/equipment: $4.5K (3%), Training/development: $2.3K (1%). This varies significantly by level: IC3 = $142K, IC5 = $215K, Director = $310K. Engineering is 15% above company average due to equity grants and specialized tooling costs.
Model the cost of converting 20 contractors to full-time.
Contractor-to-FTE conversion model for 20 positions: Current contractor spend: $3.6M/year ($180K avg rate). Estimated FTE cost: $3.1M/year ($155K avg fully loaded). Annual savings: $500K. However, one-time conversion costs: signing bonuses ($200K), benefits enrollment ($360K first year), equipment ($80K). Breakeven: Month 15. Net 3-year savings: $860K. Additional benefits: lower turnover, better IP protection, team integration. Recommendation: convert in two batches of 10 to manage onboarding capacity.
