What do you mean by "like this" and why in particular should that be avoided at all cost?

  I can’t talk about it in detail yet. Short version, the rest of the team had to pick up all of the things that he wasn’t willing to do. It shifted more burden to everyone else for his benefit and created a terrible team environment.

    > I can’t talk about it in detail yet. So... don't? Are you saying ftruzzi is like a person on your team in your last company and should be avoided? I don't see why you think he'd be "like that", what that'd mean, or really what value your comment is providing. I personally would love to work with ftruzzi!

      His post comes across as arrogant / maybe even a little choosing beggar. He lists his very specific requirements for working with him which makes me think he wouldn’t fit into an existing system, he’s want the system to bend to his will and that might be at the expense of others. He comes across as thinking he is shit hot and that I’d be lucky if I were to hire him. Based on his blog post alone, I would not hire him. Two short stints as a dev and he thinks the world should bend around him... lol

      I was commenting on this part of the post I was replying to. I had a person that fit this profile. > So I would be wondering: if you're signaling you don't want to do those things, that means someone else will need to do all that for your code, which is not great for them and tends to be much worse. Like you're basically saying you want to cherrypick the parts you enjoy and not give a damn about anything else. You might say you're only costing $1/hour but the risk of a bad engineer can mean you're still expensive or a loss.
