This is a site I've wanted at various times, but could never find anyting like it. Since I had a little free time I decided to put something together and see if anyone else thinks it is a useful idea. The idea is kind of like GlassDoor but stricly for software attributes. I think most programmers have certain attributes they want in a job (maybe they only want to work with git, or they only want to work some place that practices TDD, etc), but it's not always easy to know what the company programming philosophy is. If you don't know any employees you'd have to go through the interview process and try to decipher what the place is really like. It'd be better if we could get a pretty good idea before wasting time in an interview for a place we don't want to work.

The way it works is you fill out a survey for the place you work (we start with questions from the Joel Test and then we've added some more that we could think of). You can search for a company and see all the results that have been submitted (for example http://codehappy.info/report?company=MomCorp). All the data is anonymous and we only require a github login to prevent spamming. We chose a github account since we figured it was something many developers would already have, but this is something else we'd like feedback on. We don't want to rank companies as many questions don't have a correct answer, we just want to make the information easier to find.

The site is pretty crude as it is now as this is a true MVP since I'm not sure if enough other people want something like this. We just launched it so there isn't really any data to search yet and so I need to see if people will fill out the survey. I'd really like some feedback especially on the questions asked in the survey and/or ideas for more questions. If this catches on I have some ideas for improvements and an advanced search option. Let me know what you think!
