> we have over 20 (summed up) years of experience
Experience doesn't work that way. It's like with pregnant women: Having two pregnant women doesn't mean the baby will come out in 4.5 months.
Having 20 1-year experienced coders can lead to good solutions - because there are 20 people who can throw in their guesswork and some of them might hit the jackpot. But you can't count on this to be replicated whenever you need it.
As a customer I'd rather know the time the company successfully exists in the market place and not the accumulated age of the staff.
- grexi 13y agoYou're right about the marketing sum - It's just an opener for my insights.

- frostmatthew 13y agoAgreed, I'd have a much better idea of the team's experience if they said something along the lines of "we have X people, each with over Y years of experience"
- grexi 13y agoHere you are :-) We have 5 people, each with over 7 years of experience. Ooops, it's 35 years. I should stop under-estimating.
