"My point being, corporate companies look for money and large numbers of staff. Web development agencies on the other hand look for quality, code is poetry."
HA HA HA
Most (not all) "web development agencies" are bodyshops, they bill their clients hourly and the one metric they care about is the utilization rate of their people. Been there, done that. It is beyond ridiculous to suggest that corporations hire web agencies because their code is so much more advanced than that of their internal developers. Body shops are hired so they can be easily gotten rid of when they're no longer needed, full stop.
Isn't being able to easily "get rid of" bodies the whole point of looking for outside help?
I guess I come to the same conclusion, but without the cynicism. It isn't exactly profitable to not care about utilization rate of bodies, but then a small web dev house has to pump out better stuff faster than the other guy (and there is always an "other guy").
I mean, if your product isn't selling, then you should probably find a new product, right?
