I don't think so. Good experienced and available engineer/developers are
really hard gems to find.
You could hire three less experienced $50K/yr developers, stumble
through a 4 month project, maybe dragging it out to 6 or 7 months..
or hire one very experienced $115K developer to get the same thing done
in 3 months under budget.
That 10-year engineer has likely possesses the experience which allows
him/her to foresee and divert projects from pitfalls which less
experienced developers eventually learn also.
Quick story (related): A few winters back, I drove over a patch of ice
and spun my car off the road slamming hard into the curb. When the car
came to rest, the rear wheel was 45 degrees off from it's original
position. I had the vehicle towed to a local auto shop who informed me
that everything from the wheel up to the transmission needed to be
replaced and it would cost several thousand dollars.
My normal trusty mechanic (who charges about 20% more than the local
shops) was located 35 miles away. I paid to have my car towed on a
flatbed from the local shop 35 miles over to him. The next day my
mechanic called and said he had it fixed for $220. He went to the back
of his shop, took a piece off a spare care, welded it on to mine and
things were as good as new.
I think time and time again, the more experienced worker will find
faster and cheaper ways to get things done better and more efficiently..
and that is worth a premium.
