softwarebyrob.com — If you want to collect a paycheck for 25 years and retire with a gold watch then go for companies that have the "basics" nailed. Work 9 to 5 and count the years until you can move to Costa Rica. But if you've ever felt compelled to work crazy hours because the project was so damn fun, then you know that a paycheck is not the only thing that counts.

It is believed and even we all are agree with this 9 reasons. But money remains always at top position. I have seen developers trying to leave job because of some of these 9 reasons, but were retained just buy giving unexpected money and luxury. So when you see money you forget about everything. They are still complaining about satisfaction and hunger for good work but still staying in same company only because of good salary.
