Anecdotally, I think it's more the culture they breed in these organisations; I have friends who have worked for outsourced companies which have been "steered" by Capita, eg BBC Information, which had pointless targets and meaningless management seminars every other week. Everyone I know there says they despised working for Capita as they were so inefficient and so brutal in some of their HR policies that it became much easier on the mind, in the end, for many of them not to work for them.
So well done BBC for now farming out their engineering operation at Wood Norton to these fuckers!
