Depends on how complicated your project is and his skill level

• rocksockboybox 13y ago
  well, he is fairly skilled (or so I was lead to believe), and his main goal has been to just have a working search function that is pulling data from an API, and that's it. A few other developers have said that should take no more than a few hours, so I'm left sitting here saying wtf?

    How were you lead to believe he was skilled? Does he have any completed solo projects?
    • rocksockboybox 13y ago
      he has a few completed solo projects, and was a friend of a friend, so I was able to spend time with him learning about his skill-set, which I then ran past the CTO of a local company. It all seemed to check out. I really like him as a person, and I know that he has the ability to build this, but I'm stuck on the management aspect of it. because I'm not technical and I respect the process so much, it's hard for me to know when I need to push harder or let off the gas. Not to mention the fact that he's a co-founder, so that relationship has to look a little bit different than "I'm your manager, get shit done"

        If you haven't set any deadlines or goals, do it now. If he doesn't meet those goals, cut him loose. Obviously make those goals attainable, but to quote -> "Its time to fish or cut bait"
