If this includes department of defense contracts, they get paid whether they get anything done or not because the premium on their labor via the contract is very lucrative and contractors are reluctant to fire the loafers because of profits. Had a conversation with program manager about dead weight, and was told point blank, “we still get paid, GTFO”.
