Where I work the code review process has mostly broken down. There is just no bandwidth to get anything done beyond the most basic sanity checks. To actually make someone improve their code I'd need the time, energy, authority, good will and probably other things to explain and teach the other programmer what and how to do it differently. But shit needs to get done and if the code works it's hard to convince management why I should invest so much of our time essentially redoing work that doesn't need redoing.

I suspect that this bandwidth problem exists elsewhere also.
