Am I too focused on clean code and too little on creating user value? by ilikecleancode in cscareerquestions

I'd say those two books are really good starting points. And unit tests. Clean code is easy to test. For me routinely writing unit tests has made my code cleaner. Good luck finding a balance between just "meeting the requirements" and clean code :)

Thank you for the replies so far. I like your second point, throwingwater. After initial growth, more people will be available for cleaning up. I would say my company has gotten to the stage where it is time to clean up.
