If not managed well, technical debt slows down the development process, potentially leading to a bad developer and customer experience. The impacts include features taking longer than expected due to refactoring dependencies, frustrated engineers having to read and rewrite other peoples' code under tight deadlines and annoyed users dealing with buggy features.
Technical debt erodes the productivity of a software development team, calling on engineers to repair the quick fixes of the past.
