All roles these days start with a 1-year contract. However, depending on headcount, there are roles which can be converted into perm roles (called emplacement), or simply contract roles which may or may not be renewed. Agencies usually review this at the 9-10 month mark, which means you should reach out to your bosses to clarify the above point about now.
If you are emplaced, the salary increment would probably be about 3-5% depending on your performance. Assuming no promotion involved.
Also note that your performance bonus will likely come in March (have to stay 1 more month to retain), so that may factor in when you decide to leave, if you decide to leave.
Hope this helps.
