I'm the CTO at a startup (which happens to be hiring frontend, mobile, and backend people I might add!) and we don't look for "rockstars" or "ninjas".
We look for competent engineers who are naturally curious people that will fit in with the team. Fitting in with the team isn't important because we want you to spend all your free time with your coworkers (god no, go get some fresh air!), but because we want people to naturally want to help and teach each other.
My point is that decent people are out there. Not just in startups, but in a variety of environments. Just make your next company one you pick because of the cool people you met in the interviewing process, not because they offered $5k more than the other guy. Your sanity isn't worth losing over that.
If you're a frontend, iOS, or backend (Open to anybody willing to learn Python) engineer who wants to work with people who work sane hours and still get things done, contact me. :)
- Estragon 14y agoIn firefox 3.6.23, when I hit the "F.A.Q" link on the front page of Nutrivise, the FAQ page is displayed for a second or two, then the front page is displayed again. The problem may be that /faq/ is redirecting to /#faq/. HTH.
- heretohelp 14y agoYeah, we're pre-beta launch, haha. Thanks for the heads up! Update: I've made a note of it in our tracker, but we're making a conscious decision to support HTML 5 primarily, and it's HTML 5 history state that's breaking here. I'm going to investigate a polyfill/shim that should make this work in FF3.
- mkopinsky 14y agoOut of curiosity, why are you using FF3? I've seen lots of people use IEold for corporate policy reasons, but it's much less common to see users of FFold.
- heretohelp 14y agoI'm told FF3.6 is pretty nice on ancient hardware, especially if you're tab-happy.
