At least you were doing some form of code review.

Generally when doing web work our team is ultimately pushed for time. The solution normally complies with the request, but most of us are embarrassed with the code, and hope for a time to sort it out later, only to never get that time. There's always a flaw.

Well, I wouldn't call demeaning comments about code (that we aren't actively looking at, written by someone who isn't present) a "code review." Usually words like "shitty" and "really bad" are thrown out without any specifics given. And the work environment is not so different at our company. The CEO wants it done yesterday, and he cares more about it working than what the technical founders think of your coding style ...

I actually quite like my job, so I shouldn't be complaining so much. I just wish that some of the people I work with weren't so judgmental.
