One of the main joys of being a contractor is that this dynamic can be turned on its head. No amount of bullshit can save you from not delivering on a task you have been explicitly paid to do, and people often assume the best (rather than the worst) if you shoot for 'silent success' as a delivery mode.

IBM and Accenture are masters at the bullshit of not delivering so they can keep on billing.
