One needs to delineate between challenging features/business logic versus obstructionist architecture. The former is fine, you are dealing with a difficult problem space. The latter is not, it causes burnout since straight forward things are not straightforward to do. The latter causes pain and stress. Business rarely has the capacity to see the blowback of the latter where the product is not nimble/flexible, and there is a clear velocity hit across the board. From my experience, business rarely has empathy for the latter.
