Proprietary ecosystems do not work very well
Proprietary ecosystems do not work very well
Good salary and benefits, good culture and values, friendly management, nice and relaxed environment (including free foods and drinks), and excellent work/life balance.
Proprietary technologies used to develop "the" application do not look like a good choice. The implications are, in fact, multiple, including the risk for developers to lose their skills not only in common programming languages but also in the entire ecosystem related to them. So, it's not just a proprietary language but even the entire ecosystem. Developers cannot resell skills acquired elsewhere.
When you hire new application developers, make sure they have a clear idea of what the job will consist of. I would still recommend Workday to some friends of mine, but not to all of them. Skills and expectations play a fundamental role in what you get when you hire someone, especially for something like application development.
