Managed vs Freelance · fact-066
Why is retention higher with F5 than with freelance platforms?
F5 Hiring Solutions reports 95% client retention past the first three months because F5 employs professionals directly, offers benefits in-country, and manages their performance. Freelance platforms have no employer-of-record tie, so attrition risk sits entirely with the client.
