There is various kind of work to earn money but today I am going to compare between Full-time employee and freelancer because of the topic of the Hive Learners contest.

Before sharing my opinion I wanna share some knowledge about freelancers and full-time employee & advantages and disadvantages of both of them. So let's start...

Who is a full-time employee ?

A full-time employee means that person who work minimum 40 hours weekly in offices or factories or other workplaces. The minimum work time can be different in various countries. In a word most of the time, we see those people who are going to the office or in their workplace are mostly full time employee.

Who is a freelancer ?

A freelancer is that person who doesn't work for any specific company or organisation. A freelancer is like a free bird and he can choose which one he wanted to do considering the money. So a freelancer doesn't need to go outside for searching for work and earn money because he can do it from his home if there exists internet connectivity.

Advantages to be a full time employee

  • He can meet new people and make some real friends in the workplace.
  • He can get help from others in the workplace if he need it.
  • He has to work for a limited time.
  • He became relax after return home from the office
  • He can get a holiday every week.

Advantages to be a freelancer

  • He have the freedom to choose what he wanted to do.
  • He can work from his home.
  • He has the freedom of time and because of it, he can do the work whenever he want.
  • There is no boss and because of it, there is no restriction of a boss.
  • Giving more time he can earn more money.

Disadvantages to be a full time employee

  • He has to present physically in workplace.
  • Most of the time he has to follow the orders of the boss.
  • In the case of working many restrictions came from various purposes.

Disadvantages to be a freelancer

  • Freelancer almost work all day long.
  • He doesn't get any time for relaxing because he has to think about something always.
  • Tension of working is a common thing for a freelancer.
  • There is no official holiday for a freelancer.
  • Sometimes a freelencer lost in his work that he almost forget everything of outside world.

Considering all the advantages and disadvantages i will choose to be a full time employee because It's hard for a freelencer to get time for relaxing and i wanna spend quality time with my family member without any tension.

I am not saying that all freelencers pass stressful day every time but it's the common thing in most of freelencer although i thing with a proper daily routine this problem can be solved .
