Why would anyone?

They developed morals?

That's what I was thinking. Perhaps they are tired of the dirty business of ripping off clients and contractors alike, it's not a nice way to make a living.

Internal recruiters and Human Remains don't have any morals anyway.

The only reason to work directly for a client is because you want to do less work and they have a nice maternity package. Otherwise you must simply be tulip at the job.

One of my clients poached my account manager for his account (yes offering high base and "security") she immediately changed and became incredibly bossy. now she is under pressure to reduce agency fees for the client and has resorted to "skimming". We send in 8 CVs she says that she already has 4 them "as contacts" (in otherwords they appeared on Linkedin or on their database as a name in the distant past. So they agree to interview 4 through us (as a sop) and say they are going direct to what are effectively the best four. One of the four had never even heard of the client and the other three said that they had not approached them directly or indirectly.

and all because she cannot resource without dodgy's leadership and guidance

Take consolation in the thought that everyone at her new place will end up hating her.

I think it goes beyond that. They developed a thick skin towards DA's.
