    I work as a contractor dev for fortune 500s. It’s wide spread. Handful of full timers, padded with contractors.

    Brain drain is a real problem, but it also means there’s a culture of FTE being willing to jump through corporate hoops and on call hours, because they want to keep the FTE position instead of finding a new job every 1.5 years (in California where there are max contract lengths)
