Hiring doesn’t really seem to be a problem for Haskell teams in my experience. Onboarding can be a little slower, but there are a lot of developers out there who want to work with Haskell. If anything, I would consider Haskell a hiring advantage.
- nh2 3y agoHiring for Haskell has never been a problem anywhere I've seen. I've worked profesisonally in Haskell for 9 years now. When working as a consultancy, whenever we hired for ourselves or our clients, we got 5x more applicants than we were looking for. Of those, around 80% got a hire recommendation (unfortunately we couldn't hire them all). When hiring 1 role for our startup, we got 40 good applicants immediately, with a single post on Reddit. In all cases we had the luxury of picking the best-fitting among many excellent engineers. Maybe you'll face issues if you want to hire 100 people on the spot. But most companies don't have that problem.
- dllthomas 3y agoIf you want to hire five developers, Haskell makes that easier. If you want to hire five hundred developers, Haskell probably makes that harder, although it's not something I have experience with.
