Heh. While I was at Google I was surprised to gradually realized how many the technical teams we worked with were actually non-employee contractor teams. It might vary by division.

Can you give more information, if you can?

The only contractors I work with, and not too closely at that, are the tier one support people for our product in the Philippines. And then there's some web developers, designers, and project managers who work for a web design firm, but their job seems pretty cushy so I wouldn't include them in this conversation.
