I have no doubts that complicated things can be done in PHP. Complicated things can and were being done in Assembler, too. It just is a red flag and makes me wonder about the sense of taste the developers at a PHP company have. Therefore it would take a lot to convince me that working for them is "alright". If they have bad taste, how are they supposed to write nice code? Having to learn their proprietary solution to scaling issues only is not as tempting as it sounds. Yes, I am interested in working with scaling problems. But learning a proprietary PHP hack is not going to help my CV that much.
