I think that's part of what made my most recent job rather lackluster.
 I joined a small team as a Developer 4... already on the team were
two 2s, and then we hired a 1.  I never got much feedback from the
code reviews, and only got advice when I had a specific question.  At
least I did get a lot of cross-team work, so *sometimes* someone
closer to my equal in general SE, and often far more experienced in
the domain, was offering feedback... but usually no.

That and, to drag it back to topic, it was nearly all ActionScript,
not Ruby....  :-(
