There is the other end of the spectrum though, where people who overwhelmingly focus on getting it done, quite often, don't apply the requisite care to the code. I encountered an actual example of this, where devs were copy pasting hundreds of lines of code, no functions/methods with liberal hardcoding to scores of scripts. Each had the same warts since they were all copies. They all got the shit done while nobody bothered to clean up the mess into reusable chunks.
As a new member of the team, I took the opportunity to cleanup when I got a similar assignment, which took an extra day. Subsequently when another dev had to do a similar task, he used my setup and basically had to make changes in 3 config lines which took a minuscule fraction of what he would have spent doing copy/paste and modifications. He was happy and I was puzzled why none of them bothered to do it for so long; my cleanup wasn't rocket science and any of them could have done it.
