Please come work at Google! This place has the best overall code quality I have ever seen. That's not to say it's always great or bug-free, but it is almost always well maintained. There is very little dead code. Giving and receiving high-quality code reviews is the norm.

That’s one company that would almost certainly not have me, but I very much appreciate the thought.

Apple also displays extremely high quality code, in the areas that are exposed to the public.

I have not seen too much Adobe code, but I’m told you can eat off the Photoshop codebase.

For myself, I need to keep my scope fairly humble, but I get great joy from it.

It sounds like a gratifying environment. Good show!
