> You can forget that your boss will tell you: "Congratulations on writing this elegant and clean code, I am gonna give you a raise!". Quite the opposite, nobody cares about your clean code. > Don't get me wrong, people will expect you to write good and clean code. Still, you will rarely get any praise for it. Except sometimes from your colleagues who will review your code. If I can read your code, I don't give a frog's butt if it's up to the nose in the air crowd's standards. That just isn't what is important to a business that actually wants to survive and make money. It's crazy, those same blog heads are the ones who are always so quick to advocate for a "total rewrite" every 6 mos. They think all this nonsense makes them Pros.
