> is it better for your long term growth to work with colleagues who can teach you new skills, or to try to wrangle a dysfunctional team? Good point, although I'd consider "wrangle a dysfunctional team" as a skill, granted the team is only dysfunctional because of good management, not if they are inherently bad programmers, too big egos or whatever. > IMO it depends on what you want to learn Yeah, that's a good point. That nuance in my comment was missing to thanks for adding that.
