Yeah, but there's less permanency. If I'm contracting a company to do X, who they get to do it could change day by day. So I can hire an agency to outsource something to for like a three year contract. That company then churns employees every 6 months under some slightly sketchy practices. Not as worrisome with certain skilled jobs, but for unskilled jobs, it's kind of a rough deal. Drives wages down while the contractor can still charge decent fees. That and the contractee can terminate at any time basically.
