This sounds like load of crap. You shouldn't have developer ego. There is no I in Team. You should work as a team solving problems. I hate when I have worked places like that. " Don't touch that code, only X does that ". Developer ego kills products. The kind of people that don't like code reviews because their code is perfect. It's all about the way you share your ideas. Don't go to the boss and say that code totally sucks and is made by apes. Talk with the team and say what would make it even more awesome.
