OP point is that the second dev isn’t being billed as junior though and is in fact being billed as a senior, despite obviously not being one. It’s Accenture that’s making the profit here, by billing for 2 seniors but only supplying 1 (actually probably 0 as I bet the “good” dev isn’t a senior either and is closer to mid-level)

Good point. I guess I assumed that there was a different description/billing rate based on their observed skill levels.

I will just like to add I never said they're senior nor do I know their billing rate. They were just given to us as 'experienced hires' (no senior or junior in the job title). As a mid-level peon in the company myself I'm not really privvy to much more information than that.

What is the expected skill level of an “experienced hire” if not mid-senior? Especially from a consulting/contracting company.

Oh sorry, should have added, my own personal assessment puts the good dev at the high-mid/senior level too. Just me being needlessly pedantic that they don't have such a title. Sorry.
