    I understand there are some companies that can somehow make money off of you creating open source software for them, but does it really make sense to look for a job in which you create open-source software? I mean, isn't working about bringing in money at the end...?

    I think the article was more about hiring people who know how to use open source software to solve problems. It might be about saving money at the end. As they say: "A penny saved is a penny earned".
