I guess only difference is, I think, that by nature a contract job won't be as secure as a salaried full time employee position.
Unless I didn’t read his posts correctly, this won’t be a contract position. I think he just mentioned contract as he spoke about what else was in his field. But maybe he can clarify.
Apart from giving up seniority and maybe some vacation, I don’t see much of a downside… especially in the IT field.
Side question for him: what sort of chances for advancement do you see at this new place versus your current employer?

You are correct. This is a full time offer.
The vacation is the biggest mental hurdle. I’ve negotiated for another week of vacation on another offer I got but didn’t accept. So we will see if they budge on this one.
On the room for advancement, that’s a question I’ll end up asking in the interview. The guy I spoke with was more of just a gate keeper/resume screener. Some very high level technical questions but nothing in depth.

I work in IT. All the hourly jobs and interviews I had were contracted through the recruiter/head hunter.
