Thinking of how to build a sustainable (and scalable) engineering team is a real challenge. It's up to us, those who try to build a great team, to keep people engaged and happy. It's up to us to be upfront about what we expect from new hires. Blaming the market or the engineers who decide to switch jobs every year is pointless. Hire people who fit the kind of company you're trying to build: \"Your goal, as a hiring manager, is to find the people who want to invest in their careers, who are aiming for mastery and not just looking to make more money or build a shiny resume.\"",12,[17,25,32,39],{"listName":6,"listNumber":7,"listDate":8,"cardDate":18,"label":19,"title":20,"url":21,"domain":22,"summary":23,"timeToRead":24},1432903257,"culture","The Best Gif I Have Seen in a Long Time","https:\u002F\u002Ftwitter.com\u002Fmikefarrell\u002Fstatus\u002F599866182334713856","twitter.com","As always, my humble effort to help you start the weekend with a smile on your face. p.s.

From my experience, the problem is not a talent shortage but rather lack of focus. Too many engineers are busy with learning how to get something done, and lack the discipline and passion to learn how things actually work.
