[quote=Anonymous]All the tech companies in NOVA rely on gov't business. That's literally why they have a NOVA office. People are talking as if Google Reston is diversified. Its not. It's all Public Sector business. Every single one of the tech logos you see as you drive to Dulles relies on gov't business. When they lose their HHS contract, the folks who directly support that contract suffer. To be clear, they probably won't get fired immediately; they can be reassigned to work on different projects. But at some point, there won't be enough work to go around and they'll cut. They'll look to replace more expensive employees with cheaper employees, like a recent college grad or a recently laid off Fed employee. [/quote]
