> Another person simply doesn’t care about shipping code with bugs, and maybe even tries to. They get to shirk actual development duties by fixing their own broken code instead, and the fixes are celebrated. In one of the companies where I work, there is a chronic lack of hours for a few freelancers who were taken on with promises of full-time work. They compensate by shipping code with bugs, generating a bunch of bug reports down the line. This compensates for the missing hours. And as performance is evaluated in terms of the number of tickets closed, it also improves their standing in the workplace.
