Today, I had an interview with a development company that they request all developers to wear suits for work! From 10 to 7 o'clock, and no stable income salary, they work based on projects LOL!

Jumpsuits perhaps?

I applied at a place like that once: Action Coach.

They held a group interview (fail) where they pitted candidates against one another (fail), required everyone, devs included, to wear formal suits/skirts (fail), and forbade long hair on everyone, even women (fail).

I didn't stick around after seeing the above.

As I was leaving, the interviewer told me: "If you get your hair cut short we'll consider hiring you." Fuck off.

The company also worked on a project/contract basis.

I'd fit in perfectly!

@Ashkin I really don't understand if they truly understand that we are developers that control people by lines of code, we DON'T WEAR like you.

@linuxxx 😑seriously?.

@1989 NOWAY HAHAHAHA!

@mcalooosh I'm a suit lover/wear suits every day!

Our place was the same....we've managed to convince them tie optional is a good move, but apparently that's as far as it can go because it would appear the way we dress can influence clients decision on whether they buy our product or not....I would say clients who think like that are usually cunts to deal with anyway and not worth the effort. So far I've been proved right

I wear a shirt and tie by choice most days but do like that I have the option to wear what I want if I fancy a change for a day.

@steeb well, you got a point out there, but as the development team won't be there with client physically, so no need of that. That's a sales or PR position to do.

@LynxMagnus you're formal, I think you comment every single line of code right?

@mcalooosh nope, but I like to look important.

@mcalooosh I know, right? It's funny because the most casually dressed people in the office are the MD and the sales guy (Mr sun shines out his arse, but constantly lands the company in the shit by misselling the product). Dressing the same way as them results in a snarky email reminding everyone of the dress code.
