> looking at their code.

I can't imagine many development managers do that. And even if they did, I'm not convinced that many would make a good assessment that way.

Most of the managers I've had over my career have been poor coders. I'd hate to have them judging me by their conception of what good code is.

EDIT: I guess many people have had better managers than I've had. So my "most" and "many" may be off base.
