 With 10 years experience.Originally posted by cyborg1337 View PostGood idea.
 
 I was tempted to apply for laughs. But in all seriousness this is very exploitative and damaging if a naive junior developer was to end up here.
 
 
 I like: apply elsewhere if you are negative.Comment

 If that's how they all work it must be soul destroying. All facing a wall 8 hours solid a day. I assume they have to request a toilet break from someone sat behind them.Originally posted by TheCyclingProgrammer View PostDon't they all look so cheery - probably suffering from chronic back ache with those chairs:

 Just because they have a glass of water on the desk, that doesn't mean it's free.
