You must have gotten lucky that Accenture didn't infect your agency and shift large project engineering positions under them and then out to India.

In the EU, this is not possible. Public Sector accounts are unable to be staffed with Bangladeshi/Indians/Pakistanis etc. developers due to strict time zone requirements and GDPR regulations. They are also highly reluctant to near-shore, as they're dependent on people implementing local laws and regulations - meaning if you don't know the language, you're usually out.

The result of this is that Accenture and co. staff with local people on-site for public sector accounts.

Possibly at Federal
