    We've got three of them in current Clientco, Wipro clean up Infotech's clusterf***s, IBM cleans up Wipro's.

    Was literally told that even though independent contractors do 3 times the work at 5 times the quality, Clientco has gone down the offshore vendor route because they can just throw more bodies at it.

    I wonder if we can get our own politicians to do the same with our equivalent intra company transfer visas?
