Originally posted by SpontaneousOrder View PostGenerally, yes. Unless the client is an important one where there might be a deal done. I did work for o2 as a permie at a consultancy and there was a flat day rate for everyone (junior/senior/contract devs) of £600. Normally it would be a lot higher but o2 gave us a lot of work.Comment

Originally posted by GazCol View PostIs there really that much of a mark-up by a consultancy as opposed to an agency? In my experience, I'd say not.
I've also been a permie for a software vendor that often sent us on-site for consultancy, charging us out at £1200/day back in 2001. We never saw any of that, of course, we just got a day out of the office, a hire car and a generous hotel/meals budget which was basically "treat yourself, just don't extract the urine".Comment
