I used to work in a contact center adjacent industry. There are essentially no margins in the business. I really fail to see what value CapG can extract from companies like Teleperformance who are already pared down to the bone.

To be scrupulously fair there were multiple banners on LW announcing that prices would rise unless locked in early. NFC what they started at though, maybe $400?
