Just run of the mill stuff, pay-to-play to such an extent that everyone in a public service department that I sell software into all have jobs with vendors lined up for after they retire. They are very open about it. Most other vendors have been investigated for bribery by SFO, PNF and or FBI. Only a few stuck, I think they just bribe more people to make the other bribery charges go away. One that did stick was KBR, a subsidiary of Halliburton. Most vendors in my space seem to operate on a pyramid scheme where the money they take in from new deals has to pay for the consulting fees of the predecessors. Iām more interested in making good technology than dealing with the stress of all that so I try to compete on technical merits - which is tough.
