I worked with only one, the one my partner foolishly chosen before I've joined him. Issues we faced:

- Developers were almost completely illiterate when it came to basic things, like http vs https, using git, encryption vs encoding. That's just something I wasn't ready for

- Using old technologies, i.e. Eclipse for Android development when almost everyone is on Android Studio, having libraries which haven't been maintained since 2010 as dependencies

- Communication was horrible, I had to write 10-20 emails before I could get any answer

I was working as a remote developer on frontend. I literally had to explain what is difference between get and post requests in REST apis to the android guy. When I checked his profile, he had mentioned he was working from three years as Android developer. :/
