If you wanted to hire programmer, and bring them in-house full time, what do you believe is fair annual salary? I know some of the bigger adult, and mainstream, programs have their own in-house developers and designers for any number of reasons.
I am curious as to the salary trade offs would be for someone opting to go full time in-house, versus hustling for gigs on the web. I would think you could make more on the hustling, assuming you have a number of regular clients, versus a fixed salary. Although, older guys with families probably appreciate stability.
