I was in a similar situation with my first job out of college, except I was basically benched right after being hired - I was never on a project at all. I jumped ship after it was pretty clear that they weren't really trying to find me something to do. It was nice being paid while searching for a job, as I was able to hold out for a better offer.

In retrospect, I suspect that they hired me so that they could say they were hiring Americans to justify getting more visas to bring offshore workers into the states.
