Rent-a-Coder; not Rent-a-Miracle or Rent-sum-Discipline
I love being kind and considerate to other professionals. This is the one trait that will get your software project killed before you can breathe life into it if applied to most programmers. By most I mean approximately 92% or so. So in order to respect that value judgment, I have written this review as dispassionately as possible.
NOTE: If you cannot tell or do not know the difference between a fact, a truth and a value judgment, you need to get someone else in charge of your software project. -jmc
My gross qualifications for consideration on this subject matter are that I:
- speak and write English with more than an 8th grade slant, (what is now apparently 2nd year college)
- unwaveringly accept logic and rationale as the cornerstone of successful software development,
- operated as a corporate network computing consultant for more than twenty years,
- held management positions over project managers, software engineers/programmers and hardware engineers/programmers.
Having said that, my experience over the last few years with Rent-a-Coder itself as a buyer has been:
- satisfying,
- fair,
- equitable,
- appropriate by every possible measure,
- highly successful.
Having said that, my experience over the last few years with Rent-a-Coder coding contractors has been:
- joyous,
- gut-wrenching,
- superb,
- revolting,
- smooth,
- wretched,
- highly successful.
Having said that, my experience over the two decades I spent in the business working with programmers of any sort has been:
- joyous,
- gut-wrenching,
- superb,
- revolting,
- smooth,
- wretched,
- highly successful.
Having said that, the perceived delta between my experience with programmers of any sort through Rent-a-Coder vs. the open market has been that:
- the project failure percentage rate in the open market is several times higher than it is using Rent-a-Coder,
- I have had to cut people's salaries by up to 30% and fire others in the past for nonperformance in the open market,
I have only once had to 'fire' an AMERICAN contractor on Rent-a-Coder - that was my fault - I let myself be 'hypnotized' by the coder's charm, and for a fleeting moment judged his performance by like/dislike rather than by performance/nonperformance. He got most of the project money before I came to my senses,
- Rent-a-Coder's benefits are intensely magnified by exercising logic, rationale, and extreme self-discipline in the project layout and description process,
- if you can't bring the above listed concepts to the table, you don't belong in charge of a software project regardless of whom you use to code it,
- if you don't determine in advance to awarding your project to any coder that he or she (a) can READ and WRITE in the English language to at least [what used to be] an 8th grade level, and has actually made at least one other buyer HAPPY, that's on you, not Rent-a-Coder, and not on anyone else.
Like in the open market, if the project's management is weak and ineffective, the project, if it actually makes it to term, will be a reflection of the incompetence that drove it into being. If however a project's management is at least conversant with logic and rationale, and is able to avoid the over-politicization of the project on all fronts, what is likely to result is a superb project result that exceeds most all reasonable expectations.
Using Rent-a-Coder in that latter scenario will improve the speed and completion time of your project over that of the open market.
Using Rent-a-Coder in the former scenario will save your bacon, maybe even your job, over being in the open market.
Buyers or coders that tell you otherwise most likely fall into the 'must-find-new-career' category.
