You might be a bit arrogant, or driven, or passionate. You are surrounded by people that might be lazy, less intelligent, or less capable.
Odds are that you are enthusiastic to embark on your new career and you haven't been exposed to some parts of the real world yet.
Young developers are often smart, passionate, driven. They also fall for a million traps... reinventing the wheel, worrying about trivial things like syntax instead of the big picture, tripping over every new, soon to be discarded library/stack/tool.
Older developers are usually good at making things happen, but are often cautious, unimaginative, uninspired. They are good at delivering real world value though.
Just assume the cognitive dissonance you are experiencing is the result of having drive and education without enough real world experience to make sense of it all. You will do fine.
