IMO a well rounded individual won't have much time for personal projects while working a full time job. They might be really good at writing code though.

But if you don't have a job right now... you have time to put in to projects that can showcase your specific skills.

But then... you may end up demonstrating that you can take raw ideas and build an entire business out of them yourself, end to end, soup to nuts, and now you're threatening to others on the team who just want someone who codes, not a jack of all trades.
