I'd take the one that makes full-time offers immediately in a heartbeat, because I wouldn't trust the company that does the 3-month, no-benefits contracting "test". Going to work for a company with employees of varying skill is no big deal; every company above a certain size has people who probably shouldn't have been hired. Going to work for a company with shady management, however, is a deal-breaker.

Exactly. I don't get what the big deal is about working with lower skilled programmers. At my job there are some fairly "bad" programmers, but even they are a pleasure to work with. The trick is simply to make sure you hire nice people. I've spent plenty of time getting them up to speed with various languages and techniques, and they're all very receptive. The trick is, you yourself have to leave ego at the door. I think this is the hard part for a lot of people.
