Mega agree with this. It was really bad for my personal/career growth to get a ton of praise for doing things fast: granted, a lot of people doing the praising had precious little experience in tech themselves. I probably have 2-3 whole dead years where I could have been learning/improving a lot more but got put in “10x developer” expectation projects where I’d churn something out, get a big shiny star sticker for it, and then 2 years later it would be abandoned because there was no incentive for anyone but me to maintain it, and who would want to because it was shitty code with hacks and tech-debt, and anything that isn’t writing a fucking mountain of new garbage code gets in the way of shiny star collection.
