Yes, it's better to have an x10 team, rather than an x10 developer. Developers should strive to better themselves, but it's important not to fool yourself, too

Developers should strive to better themselves, but it's important not to fool yourself, too. Having a strong team is almost always better from a business point of view.
- mdekkers 9y agoIndeed. I have seen several teams with a bunch of (self-styled) "10x" devs, and found that the productivity and quality of the team decreases in direct proportion to the amount of "10x" devs on the team. I shun "rockstar" and "10x" (and whatever other bullshit moniker they will come up with next) team members. Give me a group of smart people that gel well together, and are highly self-confident without egos getting into the way, and we can move mountains.
