I'd imagine that I could develop the same skill set either way.
If you're talking about tech skills then I'm a Python guy. I would also like to get into C or C++ at some point. I am trying my hands at Django now, and I'm not totally sure how I feel about it. I hear that Rails is better for web development, but it doesn't scale well.
Aside from that, I'd love to have a project that I have a lot of influence over. That's not something you can easily get at a company like Google.

- Brewer 15y agoYes, that is me.
- staunch 15y agoTechnical skills are similar whether startup or BigCo. I'm talking about everything else. The habits and thinking you'll develop. The way you'll learn to work and interact with coworkers/customers. The things that will motivate you. The way you'll be rewarded or punished. And a bunch of other things. The environment of a well run big company and a well run startup are very different (for good reasons). You don't learn to succeed at one by working at the other.
