So, you’re looking for someone to join your team. Maybe your sales team over-promised on some features, or you can’t find someone who meets your skills criteria. Maybe your dev team has simply bitten off more than they can chew and are struggling with a huge backlog. These and many other reasons are the driving force behind your relentless quest to find a new face to fill your team. What if, instead of simply filling your current deficit with whoever you can find, you hired a team of highly skilled developers to solve your current problems and tackle some next quarter goals?
Here’s a few reasons this might be a better solution than hiring one developer (with an onboarding window of +/- 60 days!?): You could have a project started and maybe even completed before you would have even onboarded a new team member. A shorter lead time means no paying for downtime, and no scrambling around trying to find something for your new FTE to work on. A team can tackle your project from ideation to launch or give you a fresh set of eyes on your project-in-process.
Hiring a team brings your project diverse expertise due to their experience working at an agency. Because of this, you can have improved workflow specialization due to developers being well-versed in multiple languages and frameworks. Bringing in a cohesive team with a proven track record means that the team is always growing and pushing each other to success. A team implements new methodologies, standards, and technologies as a result of maximizing their process and productivity. One employee, even the most stellar employee ever, can get a little overwhelmed trying to keep up with that!
Finally, hiring a team for your next project can offer you a self-contained project with designers, pms, and developers. You can be as involved as you’d like — get down and dirty with the details or set it and forget it — it’s up to you. Whichever option makes your workload lighter. We’re not here to add to your to-do list!
So there you have it. The catchy title makes sense now, right? A team is a great choice for high-growth companies looking to hit their product development goals in short order or larger companies looking for digital transformation of their existing tech.
