Raghu, I am not sure the above is entirely correct. You may recall that Microsoft was sued during the H-1 heydays for gypping contractors. Inside MS "sources" tell me that their pays (in both technical and management roles) are a bit below general industry standards. In return of course they get job security, career advancement, etc., so there are no big complaints. --ravi -- If you wish to contact me, you will get my attention faster by substituting "r" for "listmail" in my email address. Thank you!
