….when a gov’t contract ended and the follow-up contract was awarded to a competing company, a large group of employees would simply move to the new company. In other words, the worker-bees often just kept doing the same work, but now their paycheck had a different logo on it.

Ah, that makes sense. I was thinking it was like French employment laws where once you hire somebody you cannot fire them if business slows down. Your explanation makes much more sense.
