My suspicion is that all type of work is this; a universal issue where quality and forethought are at odds with quantity and good enough (where good enough trends towards worse over time).

Before SE I had a bunch of vastly different jobs and they all suffered from something akin to crab bucket mentality where doing a good job was something you got away with.

I've had jobs where doing the right thing was something you kept to yourself or suffer for it.
