B737 Gust correction

I have only been on the B737-300 for a few months and have been given different opinions by different captains, each wanting me to adapt to their methods. I'm trying to look for the pros and cons for the points below

In the company that I work for there are two opinions on gust corrections.
many of the pilots believe that Vref +15 knots is sufficient, even though the book states Vref+20 as the max limit.

Also when windshear is reported what is your companies policy regarding flap settings. I always thought a larger flap setting would be better as it allows the engines to be spoiled up more. Do you use Flap 30 or 40?

What do you do?
