I have yet to work for a company where management cares about this. It's always about what can be sold next week if we rush it enough. Or, more commonly, what was sold weeks ago without any consultation with the technical team.
It's a problem everywhere. Rush to build something, then don't actually finish it, or iron out the bugs before moving on to the next sexy thing. Management wonders why everyone is on the super ancient, rocksolid platform and hasn't really taken the bait on the series of products that have an "agile" development cycle and were dropped after about 5 years.
Guys....my entire team knows the issue. Support your damn products for years. Commit to improvements for a decade, and help people transition to a new product when the old one has to be sunsetted for technological or knowledge worker retirement reasons.
