Exactly this.

The person who knows all the "engineering" - you have this giant mutating pile of impossible to fellow (but maybe 5% faster) code.

The person who just codes enterprise style, long but done and easier to follow and edit.

I guess it depends on how you define "enterprise" but I always associated that word with unnecessarily bloated code. Or even worse, trying to reduce the amount of code by pushing more and more to ever more complicated declarative configuration files. That is mostly because when I hear "enterprise" I immediately think Java EE, which to me was the exact polar opposite of easy to edit and follow.
