Rates, honestly

A word on vendor layers. In every metro on this list, a requirement can pass through two, three, or four vendors before it reaches you — and each one takes a margin out of the same bill rate. We tell you how many layers are in the chain before you interview. Most firms will not, and that is the single biggest reason consultants end up underpaid.
