    Less than half of development teams do code reviews and the other half are probably not getting as much out of code reviews as they should.

                  Strongly disagree. I've sat through hours and hours of them with previous employers. In many cases I'd argue that the outcome was worse code. But as the article pointed out, these fell in the: "But you don’t have to do code reviews this way – and you shouldn’t." category.

                          I thought you learned to find a job at a company with a better process.

                              I'd say it belongs more in the category of the uncle once bit by a dog who was forever more a cat person. There might be a right way to do code reviews. But I've yet to see it.
