Yeah - say you're working already and making, say $90K as a developer already. You're going to be taxed 25-28% of this $25/hr at the federal level alone.

Money is money, but I could think of more things I could be doing than work for a highly profitable company for what might about to $15-20/hr take home pay.

That's a good point. Never even occurred to me.
