Yes plenty, and it goes to show that years of experience is a terrible indicator of skill, expertise or passion. But I think it has to do with their perspective and possibly the developer culture at the company. Some people are just doing it for a paycheck without any passion behind it which means minimal effort and stagnation, and a friendly culture that promotes learning and doing your best goes a long way to reinforce that self improvement mindset that we like seeing.
