I used to think like that but no more. We're currently working on a new product. One that most the team would like to own and use when/if it gets to market. I'm very much contributing in my area of expertise, and yet... I've had to make some compromises to make target dates. Those dates are not all arbitrary - we need to be at certain events to stir up connections, interest, and get feedback on what we're doing. Half the code is written by another person with vastly different ideas and style, yet we've formed a decent boundary that's stable and we stay on our side. None of it is perfect, but I'm excited about the product. I'd say "hey come work with us" to this guy but I honestly don't think he'd be happy. That frustration is coming from inside.
