I don't understand what you mean here - would a company not want a well rounded developer ?
- scollet 5y agoHarder to exploit experience.
- tclancy 5y agoWe are expensive, tend to tell the younger devs to tell each other their salaries and not put up with bad management.
- lolinder 5y agoThe large companies don't need tens of thousands of system architects. They need tens of thousands of coders who can do what they're told on small parts of a system without fussing too much about the bigger picture. I think that's what OP is referring to—leetcode filters for young developers who don't need to understand all the reasons why they're doing what they're doing.
- a10c 5y agoWhy would a well rounded senior developer be interviewing for a role that requires a code monkey?
- kodah 5y agoNo job is ever phrased as needing a code-monkey and no one wants to think of themselves as a primate doing a very specific task.
- jokethrowaway 5y agoWhy would you put out ads for senior engineers when you'll make them perform code monkey tasks?
- hiptobecubic 5y agoEvery job has random overhead and your productivity is boosted quite a lot by already being familiar with some random bullshit problem like "don't configure your test environment this way or you'll run out of file handles after a day or two." Hiring more experienced people means fewer delays due to issues like that, even for boring "code-monkey" work.
