    I am just not necessarily sure if I am placing this query in the appropriate place, however I have recently been looking to start working for a company as an IT consultant. I’ve worked on my own for a couple of years, however the work just isn’t constant enough for me. I’ve got a lead for a job and wanted to do some reasearch on the company before I contacted them. I found a couple of customer reviews, but was wondering if anybody here has had any knowledge about them or had anything to say.

  6. Ged Ridgway Says:

    The footnote “Public sector employees account for less than 1% of the top 1% of the income distribution scale” deserves to be more than just a footnote, given the frequency with which we are told that public sector employees earn more than their private sector counterparts, that the public sector is too large, and that all public sector pay over 21k *must* be frozen, while private sector pay at the top, in the millions, apparently cannot even have its rapid rise slowed.
