> Do all star/ninja/rock-star software developers have rotten attitudes?
I work at IFTTT, and honestly can't say enough good things about the women and men I work with. Thoughtful, smart, great programmers and designers. Although all are world-class, I don't think anyone on the team would describe themselves in "all-star/ninja/rockstar" terms.
If you do look for a new position, I'd encourage you to look at companies' "about us" pages to get a sense of their culture, environment, attitude, and so on. (Ironically, the IFTTT "jobs" page is in serious need of an overhaul. Working on it.) Companies that do it well: Etsy, Kickstarter, Dropbox, Airbnb. Also, this great video from &yet: https://vimeo.com/97239546 https://vimeo.com/97239546
- localfugue 12y agoI just had a look at your "about"[1] page - In all seriousness, why do you have to name your "about" page as "wtf"? If it's for humour quotient, it doesn't look good. [1]: https://ifttt.com/wtf https://ifttt.com/wtf
