I would guess that your problem is more geographical. Mildly amusing anecdote - a friend of mine went to an interview for a dev position (without doing proper due diligence) at a company just outside of London, but the location was quite isolated - he ended up on a farm complex where this company had their office. He said he could hear actual farm animal noises next door during the interview and these people were desperate to offer him the job, but for obvious reasons he declined.
- duaneb 11y agoWhat are the obvious reasons? Is a farm a disreputable place to work in the UK? Mostly it's confusing, not concerning. I would imagine a farm is harder to keep afloat than a startup.
- aninhumer 11y agoIf I understood correctly, the company wasn't a farm, they just had their office there, and the interviewee found that environment unpleasant.
- duaneb 11y agoAhh, makes sense. Many engineers I know would love to work near a farm, heck I'd even consider that a perk of the job. "Sick of twitter? Go look at some livestock." This is subjective, obviously.
