It all depends. The master of one is more likely to do well as a consultant or in a corporation with a lot of division of labor.
But startups usually require you to do many different things, even things completely outside of your experience. I was hired at one to do web development, but also built and ran our hosting machines, developed training materials, taught classes, helped sell a little even.
It was a good experience. It felt like you just did your best even if you didn't know what you were doing. And if it worked, beautiful. If not, we'll find another way.
- brandoncordell 15y agoThanks for the reply. I'd love to be able to get a job in a startup. Here in Florida a large majority of the IT industry is large older companies. Most use a Microsoft or Java stack (both which I have zero experience with). I think I would fit in better with a startup than with a larger corporate company. I believe I'm a progressive thinker with great ideas. I love adopting technology early and that's usually not such a great fit for these large companies.
