I'm one of these firefighter type, and it's causing some frictions with others developpers, because my code is not great and not future proof. But I get the job done quickly, and lots of my quirky code have saved the day, either by solving an emergency or winning a tender. It's difficult to communicate with "perfect minded" developpers, because for them if code is not thought-out, then it's not worth anything, even if they understand the need for speed. Of course they think the reverse about me^^

We're set up a weekly meeting to alleviate the issue and it's working OK. The hardest is finding out which "type" is the right one, when it's not an emergency but there's a tight schedule/unclear specifications... At least we make a common decision
