Off topic, but is anyone interested in learning Godot? I want to learn Godot, and looking to team-up with someone.
I left a very big company because of this policy. This is deeply unethical.
Maybe the reason is that in the US, salaries are high enough that most engineers have a significant war chest saved up that allows them to take these gambles? In the UK, it's much harder because engineer salaries are nowhere near what the US pays.
I think, yes, this could be the main reason for engineers.
phekunde commented on How can I find teams or small companies that need generalists? · Posted by u/gendv
Sometimes problem solving needs some understanding of a domain. Otherwise it becomes difficult to solve problems in the said domain. Two domains that immediately come to mind are Security and 3D games.
I am looking to team-up with a generalist for 3D XR simulation projects who will be comfortable with NDK and Godot.
Now when I say generalist, I mean generalist in the 3D graphics/Virtual Reality/games domain. Anyone who will struggle with graphics technology, low-level optimisation will find it hard to contribute to the project.
So generalist term should be combined with domain. Otherwise it does not have much meaning.
For us, I would say in the UK, all are hard to hire.
The main background issue is a lack of supply if you are not in a place to hire worldwide remote (which many companies are not).
As a small company, doing the communications required for doing recruitment all in-house, as well as getting your job listings out to where people will find them is hard. However, using Recruiters is expensive and they have less ability to do quality filtering of applicants, especially since they are driven by commission more than quality so I think they would rather get us to interview someone who isn't a great match "just in case".
In the UK, it is notoriously difficult to team-up with someone to build a startup. The mindset is very different. If you go to US, India or China, engineers are willing to take risk. In the UK, the conversation starts something like this:
Me: "I am looking for a tech co-founder; the startup is at an ideation stage, and I have already talked to people who have shown interest in the project. I think having a tech co-founder at this stage will help a lot."
Listener: "How much are you paying for the role?"
Me: "This is an equity-based role because the startup is at an early stage."
Listener: "So you want people to work for you for free??"
This doesn't matter if the listener is an engineer or not. In the UK, there is little understanding of how very early stage startups work. It is equity based, that concept does not go down very well with the population.
I will connect via rocket chat.
