Our CEO suddenly wanted to work with an outsourcing company to build the product. On one of the "sale" meetings I asked a guy from that company:
- Can we interview developers before they join our project?
- Our company is responsible for the quality of the service we provide, - the guy replied
- What are you going to charge us for?
- For all the hours developers worked
- So your service is developer hours, and we'll be obligated to pay for all the hours they worked regardless the code quality or the performance, right?

So it seems outsourcing company is only responsible for their time sheets to correspond to real hours worked? :-)

We call such a companies in Ukraine - a galley

    Ok I guess, this feels like a bad edit of the conversation.

    Like:
    Client: can I take this car for a test drive?
    Sales dude: You have to be responsible when you participate in traffic.

    Sure that goes for everyone, but that didn't answer the question. Just like any company is responsible for the product/service they provide.
