Morale decline from oscillating priorities. You are bug-free, start working on new feature, new bug reports come in, and you have to pause and work on them. Fixing bugs is not fun work because there is usually a quick fix in an ugly way, and then a perfect fix via a large refactor and re-architecture. This results in that "soul-destorying" feeling of: if I had enough time I could fix this properly in the right way with clean code and avoid huge amounts of bugs, but alas I am just piling on tech debt.
