Is it full of contractors or permies or consultant types? Is it seen as bit of a gravy train for contractors i.e. do they usually offer extentions, loads of politics. (in)competent managers, etc

I would appreciate any help.

Those are fairly irrelevant (not to say dumb) questions, I have to say. Obvious you're a permie...

Can you do the job? Can you justfy your rate? Will it lead to better things? Those are the questions you need answering

If you go in as a contractor, why do you care what the people are like, you're there to deliver something. If you really can't stand it, you leave and try somewhere else. Think contractor...
