Ariba...my understanding is they subcontract the work out.
(for the employees they do have)...What kind of model is that? ...That sounds like a Temp Agency Middle Man Model...(spoiled programmers trying to protect job security)...typically low margin high cash demand to pay the employees...benefits,,,ect.
