We are working with a new developer and so far it’s going really well. He’s a likeable guy with a somewhat non-traditional background very similar to Brent and myself.
So far, we’ve worked with him and a different group. The first group was okay, but the coding was pretty poor. Between the bad code and trying to charge us for a CR we never approved (trying to cover a defect), we knew they weren’t the right partner.
Our new dev is doing pretty well in his initial project. The proof will be in the coding, which isn’t my domain but my business partner. He’s pretty particular so if he approves after our first test project then I know the new guy is pretty good.
