  1. Unemployed/Freelance at the moment, so it's just me. Most places I've worked it's varied between 2 to 5 developers per team. The number of teams, at most, were about 10, usually 3 or 4 teams.

  2. I've worked at companies that had less than 20 employees and at companies that had over 20K. Mid-sized ones between about 200 and 1000 total employees with good revenue streams were the best to work at because they offered the best stability, benefits and flexibility.

  3. I've been professionally developing software since 1988, so 30 years. Programming itself, a bit longer. I wrote my first program in 1978 as part of a math class assignment.

Hi Frank,

Thanks for all the details and for being brave enough to be the first to respond.

I looked through dozens of profiles but they aren't very informative so I hope you're the first of many.

Happy new year.
