Hearty agree. I think the PMs fall victim to wildly optimistic imagination of how fast and easy it will be to correct from “good enough to not get yelled at by CEO for not shipping by X date” to “works correctly and isn’t creating more bugs” - and importantly, it seems like they repeat this mistake every project, compounding the problem. So we perpetually have an increasing number of hacks, interacting with each other to cause difficult issues, all of which the PM says we will fix next sprint, just as soon as we ship one more Important Feature.

Not all orgs of course. But most I’ve personally seen, seem to be like this.
