I wont argue about individual characteristics being the key.
But for myself as a rule I defined that salaried team members are in most cases more motivated for a long successful releationship and care about the project more.
Also, lets not forget that when we are talking about doing a startup, core members need tobhave more motivation than just a wire trsnafer at the end of the month.
Best practices for motivating startup team members are not anything new.
- sbacic 6y agoSorry, but I'm not sure I follow. You talk a lot about "need to have" but don't actually say _how_ a salaried employee is supposed to have these virtues (as opposed to a contractor) simply by the fact that he's employed by the company.
- dennisbalon 6y agoLet me try to clarify myself. I am not saying that by definition a salaried imployee has any benefits compared to a good contractor. People are different and in my own experience I had amazing contractors, like e.g. our current DevOps which is just amazing despite working only 30+ hours poer month with us. But he is an exception. I am just saying that at the end of the day from my experience it is much easier to find more caring and willing to think deep abour the project from among full time employees compared to outside contractors some of which may not need to remember your name since its "just a 160 hours project".
