    Post April 2020 circle jerk...

    I've just been called regarding a permanent role with "consultancy" that farms their "staff" out to Cap Gemini who in turn farm them out to end clients... each layer taking a cut in fee revenue. All because the end clients won't be taking on contractors post April 2020.

    HOW on God's green Earth is this in anyway more cost effective than hiring a contractor via an agency?

    ****'s sake.

    Someone pays you £70k per annum.
    You get billed out by your co at £900 per day (target 150 days).
    Crap Gem bill you to end client at £1,200 - £1,500 per day.

    It's called a consultancy. HTHBIDI.
