Hierarchichal and very stressful. Associates have job security and they treat the 2 lower levels as disposable. Below Associate is Contingent - Contingent is disposable and has a lifespan of less than 2 years (no matter what your contract says) - then comes level 3 which is the temporary contractor who is treated like an untouchable. You don;t speak to an associate or look them in the eyes or your company will be pushed off site and possibly loose the whole contract because of you. You will be fired if you so much as look at an associate and credit for your work will be taken by someone higher up in the food chain. Good thing though you will get credit if their is some blame needed to be issued. Then the blame will go 100% to you. Sometime as a contractor you will be invited into an unknowing meeting, not related to you , so that you can take a blame when it is needed to be passed.
