Not necessarily contractors or employed by software houses though

Isn't shoddy an agent or something though?

In my experience, contractors might earn, say, ?500/day. A software house might charge around double that for equivalent employee. When I worked for them, Logica would basically charge the client as much as they thought they could get away with - at least twice their CFR* and more often thrice.

* - CFR was the daily cost of employing someone: salary, benefits, cost of infrastructure (support staff, buildings, etc.)
