When I lived in the area about 6 years ago, I had 3rd party recruiters reach out to me about roles that they don't list. The whole region it felt like was 70% contractors (W-2 with the contracting firm), until the company really liked you and bought out your contract and converted you to an actual employee.

Surprisingly I had better benefits at the two contracting firms than what employees were getting.

That is point, these are fake roles.
